The candidate is expected to routinely publish work in top-tier Machine Learning and scientific venues.

We seek exceptional researchers with a demonstrated research background in machine learning, a passion for interdisciplinary research and technical problem-solving, and a proven ability to develop and implement ideas from research.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead research initiatives at the intersection of machine learning, biology, and clinical sciences.
  • Conceive and lead collaborations both internally and externally.
  • Maintain expertise at the forefront of multiple areas in machine learning and biology/clinical sciences.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including chemists, biostatisticians, clinical scientists, and data engineers, to integrate ML methods into clinical trial development.
  • Lead and contribute to the design and execution of clinical trials by developing foundation models using multimodal pre-clinical and clinical datasets.
  • Publish research findings in top-tier machine learning and scientific journals and present at leading conferences.
  • Mentor junior scientists and contribute to the strategic direction of the ML group within the Computational Science Organization.
Who you are
  • Educational Background: Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field with a strong emphasis on machine learning.
  • Experience: Proven track record with 2+ years of experience developing and applying advanced ML models in a research or industry setting.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Proficiency in scientific programming languages such as Python as well as MLOps workflows (e.g., familiar with code version control, high-performance compute infrastructures, and machine learning experiment monitoring workflows).
    • Extensive experience with machine learning frameworks and libraries (e.g., JAX, PyTorch, Tensorflow).
    • Strong background in statistics, probabilistic modeling, and data analysis.
  • Domain Knowledge: Understanding of clinical trials, drug development, and biological data.
  • Soft Skills: Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
  • Publications: Strong publication record and experience contributing to research communities, including scientific journals and conferences like NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, ICCV, etc.

Preferred

  • You have an extensive track record of delivering innovative solutions in machine learning, strong communication skills with the ability to effectively communicate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences as well as interfacing with scientific leadership.
  • You have practical experience in one or more of the following areas: reinforcement learning, geometric deep learning, representation learning, and generative learning.
  • You have a passion for solving complex technical problems and a commitment to staying up-to-date with the latest developments in machine learning.
  • You have experience in early-stage clinical trial design and execution and knowledge of regulatory requirements and standards in clinical trials.
