They are seeking a highly skilled Data Scientist to contribute to transformative initiatives within the healthcare industry, focusing on developing and optimizing machine learning models and building robust data pipelines.

Responsibilities:

• Train, fine tune, and enhance LLM & NLP models using the open-source Python library ecosystem. Experience with LLMs, Generative AI, and deep learning is a significant advantage
• Build data science and data engineering pipelines specific to analyzing clinical data, such as extracting information from medical text or images, or integrating uncertain information from multiple medical data sources
• Collaborate with our team on customer-facing projects, utilizing your expertise to create advanced machine learning, deep learning, large language models, and time series forecasting pipelines tailored to address specific business needs
• Ensure models are validated for issues like bias, overfitting, and concept drift to ensure reliability and effectiveness
• Engage directly with customers, requiring strong oral and written communication skills to convey complex technical concepts clearly

Requirements:

• Hands-on experience with OMOP, FHIR, clinical terminologies, and understanding of the patient journey
• Strong background in healthcare-related fields such as medicine, pharma, bioinformatics, or biostatistics is highly beneficial
• Experience in developing and optimizing machine learning models, specifically within healthcare contexts
• Proficient in training and fine-tuning models, building robust, production-ready model inference pipelines, and conducting comprehensive exploratory data analysis and data enrichment
• Strong oral and written communication skills to convey complex technical concepts clearly
• A PhD in a relevant field is preferred but not required if exceptional experience is demonstrated
• Experience with John Snow Labs' technology stack, such as Spark NLP or the medical language models, is a plus
