You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to build, deploy, and maintain production-grade ML models that drive real-world impact in clinical trials and healthcare operations.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

End-to-End ML Development

•     Design, build, and optimize predictive models across the full ML lifecycle—from data ingestion to model serving.

•     Conduct rigorous Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) to surface insights and drive feature engineering decisions.

•     Validate model performance using appropriate statistical techniques and domain knowledge.

MLOps & Production Deployment

•     Deploy, monitor, and maintain production-grade ML models using Databricks MLFlow endpoints and Unity Catalog.

•     Implement CI/CD pipelines for model versioning, experiment tracking, and automated retraining.

•     Ensure model reliability, observability, and performance in live production environments.

Language Models & LLM Applications

•     Apply transformer-based models (BERT, ClinicalBERT, Trial2Vec) for NLP tasks including classification, NER, and information extraction.

•     Build and maintain vector similarity search pipelines for semantic retrieval and recommendation use cases.

•     Fine-tune pre-trained models for domain-specific applications in clinical and healthcare contexts.

•     Support exploratory work around LLM integration and prompt engineering for internal tooling.

Domain-Driven Analytics

•     Apply advanced analytics within complex healthcare and clinical trial datasets—including patient records, trial protocols, and adverse event data.

•     Translate ambiguous business problems into structured analytical frameworks with measurable outcomes.

•     Partner with domain experts, product managers, and engineering teams to deliver data-driven solutions.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Education

•     Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Bioinformatics, or a closely related field.

Experience

•     2–4 years of hands-on experience in a data science or machine learning role.

•     Demonstrable experience deploying ML models in production environments (not just prototyping).

Technical Skills

•     Strong proficiency in Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, PyTorch / TensorFlow).

•     Experience with Databricks, MLFlow (experiment tracking, model registry, endpoints), and Unity Catalog.

•     Hands-on experience with BERT-family models and Hugging Face Transformers library.

•     Familiarity with vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate) and embedding-based retrieval.

•     Solid understanding of SQL and working with large structured/unstructured datasets.

•     Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS / GCP / Azure) and distributed computing frameworks (Spark).

GOOD TO HAVE

•     Prior experience with clinical trial data standards (CDISC, CDASH, SDTM) or healthcare ontologies (SNOMED, ICD-10).

•     Familiarity with Trial2Vec or similar trial-to-vector embedding approaches.

•     Experience with LLM fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, or prompt engineering in a production setting.

•     Knowledge of regulatory and compliance considerations in healthcare AI (e.g., FDA guidelines, HIPAA).

•     Contributions to open-source ML projects or published research.

THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF…

•     You have strong SQL/BI skills but limited hands-on ML modelling experience — or you’ve built models only in notebooks without ever deploying them to production.

•     Your LLM exposure is limited to API calls and prompt engineering — with no experience fine-tuning models, working with embeddings, or building vector search pipelines.
