Head of Data and Machine Learning

Join the team shaping the future of healthcare! Medbridge is a dynamic software-as-a-service company working with the country’s largest healthcare providers to build technology solutions that help patients get better faster, while decreasing the overall cost of care. Our Product team is looking for an enthusiastic Head of Data and Machine Learning to join us!

We hire in the following states: AZ, CO, CA, FL, , GA, IL, NH, KS, MA, MI, MN, NC, NY, OH, OR, PA, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WI.

As a Head of Data and Machine Learning
, you will own Medbridge's most important technical bet: turning the world's richest proprietary therapeutic care dataset into AI that makes every clinician more effective and every patient more likely to recover. You will define and lead the technical strategy for our core AI systems infrastructure that powers them.

Your main responsibility is to deeply understand Medbridge’s vast collection of digital patient care data — encompassing adherence metrics, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), home exercise program (HEP) completion rates, clinical feedback, motion capture assessments, remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) data, and structured/unstructured outcomes across millions of assigned programs — and to build and execute the company's overarching data science and AI strategy.

Leveraging this rich, proprietary dataset, you will lead the development of AI agents and advanced AI applications that empower healthcare professionals and patients to gain deeper insights into clinical outcomes and patient feedback, optimize digital care and rehabilitation programs, and drive impactful, data-informed decisions in therapy, engagement, and hybrid care delivery.

Medbridge is a leading provider of healthcare education and digital patient care software, serving clinicians, healthcare organizations, and patients by transforming how providers deliver education, engagement, and care. With evidence-based continuing education and tools like home exercise programs, digital care pathways, remote therapeutic monitoring, patient-reported outcomes, and motion capture technology, Medbridge helps healthcare professionals reach more patients, improve adherence, elevate outcomes, and practice at the top of their licenses.

Our award-winning platform supports disciplines including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and more—empowering better care across outpatient, home health, hospitals, and hybrid settings.

We offer:

• A work-hard, have-fun environment with smart, curious people who thrive on hard problems
• A values-driven culture centered on connection, collaboration, and co-creation
• A diverse, experienced, and friendly team that will welcome, support, and challenge you

• Own the proprietary model flywheel. Medbridge holds 90M+ assigned programs, 15M+ care episodes, longitudinal adherence time-series, PROs, RTM signals, and motion capture data that no competitor can replicate. Your primary mandate is to turn this dataset into a proprietary therapeutic AI model that compounds in value with every patient episode, making our AI advantage mathematically impossible to close.
• Lead AI product delivery across all AI bets. Drive the design, development, deployment, and continuous improvement of the models and systems that power the Clinical Copilot (next-best-action, pathway recommendations, patient summarization), the Outcomes Intelligence Platform (predictive risk flagging, adherence modeling, value-based care reporting), and the Intelligent Learning Engine (personalized point-of-care education surfacing).
• Define and execute the AI/ML technical roadmap. Partner with Product and Content to translate clinical and product priorities into a sequenced, feasible AI roadmap. Own build vs. fine-tune vs. prompt decisions. Determine when general-purpose LLMs are sufficient and when proprietary model development is warranted.
• Establish trust-by-design as a non-negotiable standard. Every model and AI feature ships with transparency, auditability, and the clinician always in the loop. Own the clinical AI safety and quality framework,…
