Job description

Machine Learning Scientist (Contract → Full-Time Potential)

Location: Remote (Contract)

Duration: 3–6 month contract (with potential to convert to full-time)

Company: Stealth-stage MedTech (AI in Oncology)


About the Company

Our client is rapidly scaling, stealth-stage medtech company applying advanced AI to transform cancer care. Founded in late 2025 and led by experienced operators and researchers, we are building proprietary, data-driven models to improve cancer surveillance, diagnosis, and treatment decision-making.


Our work is powered by rich longitudinal patient datasets, with strong in-house expertise in genomics. We are not focused on traditional imaging AI—instead, we tackle complex, multimodal clinical data to drive real-world impact in oncology.


The Opportunity


We are looking for exceptional AI Researchers / ML Engineers to join us on a high-impact contract basis (3–6 months) to accelerate model development across large-scale patient datasets.

You will work closely with our Head of AI and core research team, contributing to the design, development, and deployment of models for:


  • Risk prediction
  • Patient outcome modeling
  • Clinical decision support


High-performing contractors will be considered for full-time roles as we expand our team in Boston later this year.


What You’ll Do


  • Design, build, and evaluate machine learning models on large-scale longitudinal patient datasets (e.g., EHR)
  • Develop models for risk stratification and outcome prediction in oncology
  • Work with multimodal data (clinical, genomic, and other structured/unstructured sources)
  • Own the end-to-end ML lifecycle: data processing, experimentation, validation, and deployment
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including AI researchers, engineers, and domain experts
  • Translate research insights into production-ready systems


What We’re Looking For

Core Requirements

  • Strong background in machine learning and ML engineering
  • Experience working with real-world healthcare data, especially: Electronic Health Records (EHR)
  • Longitudinal patient datasets
  • Proven ability to design and run rigorous experiments
  • Experience deploying models into production environments
  • Strong programming skills (Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, etc.)


Preferred / Differentiators


  • Experience with genomics or multimodal biomedical data
  • Track record of publications in top-tier venues (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, Nature, Science)
  • Experience in healthcare AI, medtech, or clinical data environments
  • Background in statistical modeling, causal inference, or time-series analysis


Who You Are


  • A hands-on builder who can move quickly from idea → experiment → production
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, early-stage environment
  • Able to balance research depth with engineering execution
  • Motivated by applying AI to high-impact problems in healthcare


Why Join Us


  • Work on cutting-edge AI problems in cancer care with real-world impact
  • Access to proprietary, high-quality patient datasets
  • Collaborate with a world-class AI and genomics team
  • Flexible contract structure with clear path to full-time
  • Join early and help shape a high-growth company pre-public launch
