Overview

Healthcare needs good data. At PicnicHealth, we are building deep real-world datasets fueling cutting-edge research while giving patients control of their own medical record data. These complete, clinically-rich datasets produce unique insights — across dozens of diseases — to ultimately get the right treatments into patients’ hands faster. We do this by working directly with patients and leveraging state of the art machine learning to transform messy medical records into structured, research-ready datasets. To date we’ve helped tens of thousands of patients securely access their records and proactively contribute to advancing research in diseases that impacts their lives.

Founded in 2014, PicnicHealth partners with 13 of the top 30 biopharma companies and we have raised over $100 million in venture capital from investors including Amplify Partners, Felicis Ventures and B Capital Group.

And we are just getting started! If you are looking to join an award winning, mission-driven, motivated team that is making a real impact across millions of people’s lives, PicnicHealth might just be the place for you.

The Opportunity

Machine learning is at the heart of our work and technical strategy. Our company sifts through the messy mountain of data that captures each patient’s care journey in whatever format it exists in the real world. To do that, we’ve built a human-in-the-loop AI/ML pipeline that ingests medical records and scans, converts them into structured data, and then synthesizes them into a form that is directly useful to patients, clinicians, and researchers. This process enables us to build products that improve patient/doctor communication and care decisions, or develop the next generation of data-driven life-sciences studies.

Our Machine Learning team’s goal is to capitalize on the latest technology to both expand our core capabilities and to improve the efficiency with which we process records in our existing pipeline. Our latest strategic initiatives have already begun putting large language models (LLMs) at the heart of our predictive techniques. We are looking for an ML Engineer who is fascinated by what it takes to use emerging techniques to solve real business problems today, and what it takes to launch that cutting edge tech into production at scale. In this role, you'll develop new prediction models using techniques like instruction fine-tuning on top of LLMs, build infrastructure to productionalize both training and inference, and help our team accelerate existing strategic projects.

As an ML Engineer you will:

Develop machine learning models to improve PicnicHealth’s product and processing efficiencyApply expert software development skills to help turn newly developed models into deployed services integrated within our application infrastructureSurvey and incorporate recent advances in AI/ML research into our set of core capabilitiesHelp us expand and improve our machine learning pipeline for scale, including systems for distributed training, versioning, deploying, and testing modelsHelp expand a world-class ML team by attracting, interviewing, and onboarding future team members during this exciting time of growth

You are a great fit if you:Have a Ph.D. degree in a related technical field such as Computer Science or Physics, or have a bachelors and have built production AI/ML softwareHave hands-on experience with technologies in our stack, such as pytorch, kubernetes, and deepspeedHave worked on all steps required to bring an AI/ML model to production – from ideation to deploymentHave deployed Python code into production for 3+ yearsDisplay a solid understanding of the latest AI/ML research trends and techniques, coupled with a commitment to continual learning and professional growth in these areas.
