Key Responsibilities

  • Improve existing production machine learning models through systematic error analysis, improved data, targeted experimentation, and changes to model architectures and training approaches.
  • Develop machine learning models for new products, taking problems from initial formulation and feasibility experiments through training, validation, and production integration.
  • Collaborate with clinicians and product stakeholders to define meaningful evaluation criteria, including sensitivity, specificity, and the clinical implications of different error types.
  • Evaluate model robustness across patient populations, clinical sites, imaging equipment, and acquisition conditions, identifying performance gaps and generating evidence that improvements generalize effectively.
  • Improve data curation and annotation workflows by addressing coverage gaps, label quality, and potential sources of data leakage.
  • Build reproducible training and evaluation pipelines with traceable datasets, experiments, and model versions.
  • Partner with software engineers to optimize inference performance, resource consumption, and operational reliability, while investigating model issues that arise in production.
  • Research relevant scientific developments, test promising approaches, and make evidence-based decisions about technologies and methodologies to adopt.
  • Contribute to model validation and technical documentation in collaboration with quality and regulatory teams.
  • Review code and experiments, provide constructive technical feedback, mentor colleagues, and communicate technical findings, risks, and trade-offs clearly.
  • Follow applicable data privacy, compliance, safety, confidentiality, quality, and regulatory standards throughout the development and delivery lifecycle.
  • Maintain a professional, collaborative, and accountable approach while adapting to new technologies, methods, systems, and responsibilities.
