About the Role

We are seeking an ML Research Engineer to join a team applying AI/ML in diverse biomedical research projects. This role involves developing, adapting, and translating cutting-edge machine learning methods into tools that accelerate discovery in neurodegeneration and other disease areas, working closely with biologists, imaging scientists, and engineers.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and deploy computer vision approaches and reinforcement learning pipelines for high-content cellular imaging data, including adaptive acquisition strategies for automated microscopy.
  • Train, fine-tune, and benchmark multimodal models for pathology and cell segmentation across large longitudinal imaging and sequencing datasets, evaluating performance against biologically meaningful metrics.
  • Partner with lab members to streamline AI/ML workflows, improve data processing efficiency, and resolve complex computational bottlenecks in ongoing experiments.
  • Partner with internal and external collaborators, contribute to manuscripts and presentations, and help lead grant writing efforts by developing computational aims, preliminary data, and methods narratives.
  • Translate complex computational concepts into clear, actionable insights for non-technical team members and interdisciplinary collaborators.

Requirements

  • Requires Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, physics or related field.
  • 4+ years of related experience for individuals with a BS/BA or 2+ years of related experience for individuals with a MS degree.
  • Hands-on experience with deep learning tools (PyTorch, JAX, OpenCV, Hugging Face).
  • Hands-on experience with MLOps frameworks (Docker, containerization, Computer Systems).
  • Hands-on experience with distributed platforms (Slurm, Kubernetes).
  • Hands-on experience with software engineering practices.
  • Practical experience applying machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, transformer architectures, and reinforcement learning.
  • Genuine curiosity for biological discovery and a strong motivation to apply AI to solve complex biological problems.
  • Willingness and capacity to seek out new emerging solutions from across computer science.
  • Proven ability to explain technical ML concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Collaborative, team-first mindset.
