We’re looking for a Lead Data Science Researcher who thrives in research-heavy environments and enjoys exploring uncharted territory with the support of a strong technical team. You will lead a compact team of two data scientists, guiding them on high-impact research initiatives and experimental projects. Your role will involve pushing the boundaries of applied machine learning — especially in the context of medical and clinical data — and turning complex problems into innovative solutions.

This is a unique opportunity to drive forward new ideas and applications, not just optimize existing ones.

• Strong background in different areas of ML (traditional classification and regression techniques, recommender systems, text data, clustering, etc.);
• Solid experience with deep learning frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow;
• Excellent Python skills (beyond Jupyter Notebooks) - ability to build clean, testable, production-ready code;
• Familiarity with medical or life science data is a strong plus;
• Expertise in SQL, Pandas, Scikit-learn, and modern data workflows;
• Comfortable working in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environments.

Bonus points for experience with

• State-of-the-art NLP models, Transformers, Agentic Approaches for mixed (temporal and text) data analysis and summarization;
• Experience with pipeline orchestration tools like Airflow, Argo, etc.;
• Proven Experience with Anomaly Detection and Forecasting with explainability for temporal and mixed data;
• Intermediate+ English — ability to participate in written discussions with international teams and clients.

Benefits

• Join a mission-driven team working at the intersection of data, medicine, and impact;
• Work on meaningful challenges with long-term value for public health and healthcare quality;
• Collaborate with top-tier experts in a culture that values curiosity, autonomy, and innovation;
• Fully remote-friendly setup with flexibility and trust at the core.
