Recruiting

Year-round↓

We're looking for talented researchers, engineers, and clinicians who want to make a real impact on patient care through artificial intelligence.

01 / About the Division

Translational machine learning for one of the largest health systems in the United States. Read about the lab.

02 / Inside the Work

Reviewed for methods and for clinical fit.

Projects are paired with a research engineer and a clinical mentor. Methods are held to standard machine learning peer review, and the clinical framing is reviewed by a practitioner who would use the result. The output, whether a paper, a poster, or a prototype, is shaped by both.
