Job Description

We are seeking a highly experienced Staff Machine Learning Engineer to help advance next‑generation medical technologies for continuous physiological monitoring, disease detection, and predictive clinical decision support.

In this role, you will develop clinically meaningful algorithms using multi‑modal healthcare data, including physiological sensor signals, medical device data, electronic health records, imaging data, and other real‑world clinical datasets. You will work in a highly cross‑functional environment with algorithm engineers, data scientists, clinicians, systems engineers, software teams, regulatory specialists, and product leaders to translate complex clinical and physiological problems into validated, deployable algorithmic solutions.

This is a senior technical role suited for an engineer with deep expertise in classical machine learning, modern AI/deep learning, physiological signal interpretation, and real‑world deployment across both cloud‑based platforms and edge medical devices.

• Lead the design, development, validation and deployment of AI/ML algorithms for continuous physiological monitoring, novel vital sign and physiological parameter development, disease detection and risk stratification and early warning systems.
• Develop algorithms using multi‑modal data sources, including physiological waveforms and time‑series data such as PPG, blood pressure, capnography and other monitoring signals, bedside and wearable sensor data, electronic health records and structured clinical data, etc.
• Apply advanced analytical approaches, including:
• Classical machine learning models
• Statistical modeling and probabilistic inference
• Time‑series modeling
• Signal processing and feature engineering
• Deep learning architectures
• Multimodal AI models
• Transformer‑based models and foundation‑model approaches where appropriate
• Translate clinical and physiological understanding into robust algorithm design, including feature selection, model architecture, performance targets, and clinically interpretable outputs.
• Build end‑to‑end algorithm development pipelines for data ingestion, signal quality assessment, annotation, feature extraction, model training, validation, robustness testing, and post‑market performance monitoring where applicable.
• Partner with clinical, medical affairs, regulatory, quality, and product teams to ensure algorithms are developed with appropriate clinical context, usability, safety, and regulatory considerations.
• Develop and optimize algorithms for cloud environments and for edge or embedded medical devices, accounting for latency, memory, compute, power, cybersecurity, and reliability constraints.
• Support verification, validation, documentation, risk analysis, and design controls for regulated medical technology products.
• Contribute to intellectual property generation, technical strategy, research roadmaps, and external scientific engagement.

• Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Computational Biology, or a related engineering or quantitative field.
• 7+ years of industry experience in AI/ML, algorithm development, biomedical signal processing, healthcare analytics, medical devices, or related…
