At CoMind, we are developing a non-invasive neuromonitoring technology that will result in a new era of clinical brain monitoring. In joining us, you will be helping to create cutting-edge technologies that will improve how we diagnose and treat brain disorders, ultimately improving and saving the lives of patients across the world.
The Role:The Data Science and ML team builds the algorithms that turn a novel optical brain signal into clinically meaningful outputs. The data comes from real ICU patients. The models will go into a regulated medical device used at the bedside.
We are looking for someone with deep theoretical ML knowledge and a track record of getting models out of research and into production.
At CoMind, all team members work at least 4 days per week from our new Kings Cross offices, plus a flexible work-from-home day.
Responsibilities:Own the design, benchmarking, and validation of ML model architectures for physiological signal inference, identifying the right approaches for a genuinely novel time-series problem
Lead end-to-end delivery of ML workstreams, owning strategy, execution, and risk from problem definition through to production
Develop and maintain robust training pipelines, evaluation frameworks, and reproducible experiment workflows
Write production-quality Python code and prepare validated algorithm modules for handover to software engineering
Work with physicists, neuroscientists, and clinicians to translate domain knowledge into modelling constraints, architecture choices, and training strategies
Drive the team's engagement with the ML research literature, identifying and evaluating relevant advances across time-series, signal processing, and adjacent fields
Contribute to publications, patent disclosures, and technical documentation that build CoMind's scientific credibility
AI is fundamental to our culture. It's not just a tool, but a core part of how we work, collaborate, and innovate. We expect all team members to embrace AI in their daily work and continuously find new ways to use it effectively.
Deep theoretical knowledge of machine learning, including a strong grasp of the tradeoffs between model families across neural networks, tree-based methods, convolutional architectures, transformers, and state space models
A track record of getting ML models into production, not just research environments
Strong Python skills and comfort with the full ML engineering stack, from experiment tracking and training pipelines through to inference and deployment
Experience with time-series or sequential data, including the practical challenges of non-stationarity, distribution shift, and small or noisy datasets
Experience developing ML models for one of the following: hardware products, wearables, embedded systems, or edge devices
Nice to have:
Experience applying ML to physiological, biological, or sensor data
Background in or strong familiarity with signal processing concepts: spectral analysis, filtering, noise characterisation
Familiarity with regulated development environments (SaMD, IEC 62304, or equivalent)
Publications, patents, or congress presentations in a relevant technical area
Company equity plan so all employees share in the success of the company
Salary-sacrifice pension scheme
Private medical, dental and vision insurance (medical history disregarded)
Group life assurance at 4x annual income
Comprehensive mental health support, including unlimited access to 1:1 sessions with trained professionals
Unlimited holiday allowance (+ bank holidays) and one week of remote working per quarter
Lunch voucher (£10) every day for JustEat and free dinner on those days where you need to work later
Twice weekly deliveries of fresh fruit and an extensive selection of snacks and drinks
YuLife subscription, allowing you to turn your daily steps and meditation into discounts at a range of stores
Access to Udemy for upskilling and professional development.
Skills Required
- Deep theoretical knowledge of machine learning
- Track record of getting ML models into production
- Strong Python skills
- Experience with time-series data
- Experience developing ML models for hardware products or devices
What We Do
CoMind is revolutionising brain healthcare with its non-invasive technology, redefining how the brain is measured and treated to optimise patient outcomes across the care continuum. Based in London, CoMind designs and manufactures a groundbreaking approach to brain monitoring, which provides a multidimensional view of brain activity using light. It enhances patient safety, improves healthcare economics, and improves clinical outcomes. Their AI-powered platform, CoVision, delivers predictive insights, enabling clinicians to anticipate complications. With a focus on precision medicine, CoMind is setting new standards in brain health, from intensive care to surgeries to the emergency room. CoMind is backed by leading investors such as Octopus Ventures, LocalGlobe, Angelini Ventures and Crane Venture Partners, alongside several high profile angel investors. We are currently hiring for multiple roles: https://comind.jobs.personio.com/.
