You’ll lead the design, development, and deployment of scalable AI solutions that leverage multimodal data sources (e.g., imaging, EHR, genomics) to empower clinical research and personalized healthcare. Working with the CSO, you will take the reins in making day-to-day technical decisions and ensuring that our platform is built on a strong, adaptable, and responsible technical foundation.

  • Product Development: Build and deploy product, ensuring our platform is both robust and scalable as we grow.
  • Hands-On Engineering: Participate in coding, model development, and infrastructure design to establish a strong foundation, particularly during the early stages.
  • Pragmatic Decision-Making: Translate the CSO’s research focus into actionable, practical engineering solutions, balancing long-term innovation with short-term delivery.
  • Responsible AI & Compliance: Uphold high standards for responsible AI and ensure compliance with healthcare regulations (HIPAA, GDPR), building trust with partners and users.
  • Team Building & Mentorship: Recruit, mentor, and inspire a talented engineering team, establishing a collaborative and high-performance culture.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with product, data science, and business development teams to align technical execution with market needs, partner expectations, and company goals.
  • Project & Resource Management: Oversee technical project timelines, resource allocation, and budgeting, ensuring timely and efficient delivery on key milestones.


Requirements


  • Technical Expertise: Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with a strong foundation in machine learning, data engineering, and software architecture.
  • Experience: 7+ years in software engineering or machine learning, with 3+ years in a technical leadership role, ideally within healthcare, AI, or high-growth technology companies.
  • Healthcare Compliance Knowledge: Familiarity with HIPAA, GDPR, and regulatory standards in healthcare, with a track record of implementing compliant systems.
  • Problem-Solving Orientation: Ability to make pragmatic, strategic technical decisions, balancing immediate product needs with long-term scalability and innovation.
  • Hands-On Skills: Proficiency in Python, SQL, and machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) along with experience in cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP).
  • Collaborative Leader: Strong communication and interpersonal skills, able to work cross-functionally and translate complex technical requirements for a range of stakeholders.
  • Commitment to Responsible AI: Knowledge of responsible AI practices, including bias detection, model transparency, and safety protocols, and a commitment to building fair, ethical AI solutions.
