We are looking for an AI Scientist to join a dedicated team building and evolving a clinical data platform serving the clinical operations space. You will design and implement machine learning models that power insights across the clinical trial lifecycle — working with large-scale healthcare datasets spanning publications, clinical trials, medical claims, and provider data.
This is a backend, data-intensive role. You will work at the intersection of machine learning research and production data systems, building models that run at scale and integrate into real-world clinical workflows. You should be comfortable moving from research to implementation in a fast-paced, applied setting.
WHAT YOU'LL DO AT H1
- Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models to extract insights from clinical and healthcare data — including NLP tasks across publications, trial records, and medical claims
- Build and optimize ML pipelines on large-scale distributed systems using Apache Spark and cloud-native tools
- Work with structured and unstructured data sources to develop predictive models, classification systems, and entity resolution approaches
- Collaborate with data engineers to integrate ML models into production ETL pipelines and ensure scalability and reliability
- Partner with MLOps teams to operationalize models — including monitoring, retraining, and versioning workflows
- Evaluate and benchmark model performance and present findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Stay current with advances in NLP, deep learning, and healthcare-specific AI applications to identify opportunities for innovation
