Job Summary
Work with proprietary clinical data from hospital and clinic partners to surface insights shaping model and product direction. Build clinical reasoning models that improve physician and clinic workflows while designing benchmarks to evaluate where current LLMs fall short. Own the training and evaluation pipeline end to end, taking open-ended problems from question to working model with minimal predefined structure. Write up findings as technical reports and papers. This founding research hire defines the agenda as much as executes it with direct founder access, real compute, and nothing between an idea and an experiment.
Required Qualifications
- Has real research experience — can define a problem, not just execute a known one
- Has trained models before (not just fine-tuned APIs)
- Fluent in Python
- Bachelor's in computer science and related fields
- Energized by open-ended problems and ambiguity
- Wants to publish, not just ship
- Takes ownership without needing to be guided
- Genuinely wants a startup over big tech — speed and ambiguity as defaults, not exceptions
Desired Qualifications
- Prior founder or founding-engineer experience
- Strong product taste
- Worked on healthcare datasets before
- Built LLM-powered products before
- Ambitions to start your own company someday — we'll support that path
