- maintain data pipelines for model training and continuous improvement using feedback loops
- implement best practices for model versioning, experiment tracking, and reproducibility
- integrate ai solutions with existing product architectures and infrastructure
data engineering and management
- process and prepare healthcare data for use in training and testing ai models
- implement data privacy and security measures compliant with healthcare regulations
- create synthetic data generation solutions when appropriate
- develop strategies for handling imbalanced, sparse, or noisy healthcare datasets
evaluation and bias assessment
- design and implement robust evaluation frameworks for ai model performance
- develop metrics and kpis to measure model effectiveness in real-world scenarios
- identify and address potential biases in training data and model outputs
- conduct thorough testing to ensure model reliability and accuracy
collaborative development
- work closely with product teams to translate requirements into technical implementations
- collaborate with clinical experts to ensure ai solutions meet healthcare needs
- participate in agile development processes, including sprint planning and reviews
- document technical approaches, model architectures, and implementation details
continuous learning and innovation
- stay current with the latest advancements in llms and ai for healthcare
- experiment with emerging techniques and technologies to improve model capabilities
- contribute to internal knowledge sharing and technical discussions
- identify opportunities for innovation and improvement in existing ai systems
requirements:
- bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, or a related technical field
- minimum 2+ years of hands-on experience with:
- training and fine-tuning llms
- implementing multimodal ai solutions
- working through the complete ai development lifecycle
- developing ai solutions for complex domain use cases
- technical proficiency in:
- python programming and ml frameworks (pytorch, tensorflow, or equivalent)
- fine-tuning techniques for llms (prompt engineering, peft, lora, etc.)
- natural language processing (nlp) and understanding (nlu)
- cloud computing and ml operations platforms
- version control and collaborative development tools
- experience with:
- developing ai systems in regulated environments
- healthcare data or other complex domain data
- implementing evaluation metrics for ai model performance
- deploying models to production environments
- strong problem-solving skills and analytical thinking
- ability to work effectively in fast-paced, agile environments
- experience working with cross-functional teams
- self-motivated with ability to work independently and collaboratively
