About this role
Accountabilities
- Build and improve the technical pipeline that transforms clinical standards into executable decision modules.
- Develop and iterate on representations capable of capturing complex clinical guideline logic, including rules, exceptions, algorithms, and relationships.
- Experiment with open-source and proprietary AI models, fine-tuning approaches, constrained decoding, and other advanced model techniques.
- Design and maintain rigorous benchmarks, datasets, evaluation metrics, and adversarial test cases to measure clinical fidelity and system performance.
- Investigate model failures systematically, turning unexpected behavior into falsifiable hypotheses and well-designed experiments.
- Develop deterministic validation systems using techniques such as static analysis, constraint solving, formal verification, and related methods.
- Translate successful research findings into robust approaches suitable for production deployment.
- Work directly with clinicians and technical leadership to validate outputs and ensure that generated decision artifacts are complete, correct, reliable, and traceable to their source evidence.
- Contribute to research direction, technical architecture, and product development within a small, highly autonomous team.
- Continuously investigate how modern AI techniques can be pushed further while maintaining the level of precision and reliability required in clinical environments.
Requirements
- 3+ years of relevant research or industry experience in machine learning, artificial intelligence, clinical AI, NLP, formal methods, or a related technical field; final-year PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers may also be considered.
- Strong technical foundation in machine learning, AI, NLP, formal methods, software engineering, or related disciplines.
- Demonstrated ability to design experiments and evaluation frameworks that rigorously test whether an AI system actually works.
- Experience developing datasets, benchmarks, metrics, validation methodologies, or adversarial evaluation approaches is highly valuable.
- Ability to investigate complex model behavior and translate failures into concrete, testable hypotheses.
- Familiarity with model fine-tuning, constrained decoding, or modern AI experimentation is an asset.
- Understanding of deterministic validation, static analysis, constraint solving, formal verification, or related techniques is valuable.
- Strong software development and systems-building capabilities, with the ability to move research concepts toward production-quality implementations.
- Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with a rigorous and evidence-driven approach to technical decisions.
- Curiosity and intellectual independence, with a willingness to challenge assumptions and investigate difficult technical questions.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, particularly when working with highly technical colleagues and clinical experts.
- Ability to thrive in a small, fast-moving, high-ownership environment where individual contributions can significantly influence research and product direction.
- Genuine interest in building AI systems where correctness, reliability, traceability, and real-world impact are critical.
Benefits
- Competitive base salary with a meaningful equity package.
- Remote-first position available to candidates based in Canada.
- Periodic in-person team offsites.
- Opportunity to work directly with technical leadership, founders, and clinical experts.
- High level of ownership and significant influence over research and technical direction.
- Opportunity to work on frontier AI research with genuine clinical and real-world impact.
- Exposure to the full research-to-production lifecycle, from experiments and benchmarks to deployed systems.
- Opportunity to work at the intersection of AI, machine learning, clinical knowledge, NLP, and formal methods.
- Small, deeply technical environment designed for ambitious and intellectually curious professionals.
- Chance to help build infrastructure that makes complex clinical knowledge executable, verifiable, and traceable.
