• ML Expertise: 4+ years of professional experience in Machine Learning, with a track record of deploying and maintaining LLMs in production.
• LLM Proficiency: A deep understanding of LLM architecture and the orchestration of complex applications (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode).
• Technical Stack: Proficiency in Python and SQL (TypeScript is a plus) alongside modern software development best practices.
• Leadership: Proven ability to own ambiguous projects from ideation through maintenance, providing technical mentorship to peers.
• Communication: The ability to translate complex technical concepts for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience in fast-paced startup environments;
• Background in post-training LLMs (SFT, RLHF);
• Familiarity with cloud platforms like GCP or AWS;
• Previous AI research experience.

• A stimulating, fast-paced environment with lots of room for creativity;
• A bright future at a promising high-tech startup company;
• Career development and growth, with a competitive salary;
• The opportunity to work with a talented team and to add real value to an innovative solution with the potential to change the future of healthcare;
