Healthcare Data Scientist

Job Description: • John Snow Labs is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Data Scientist to contribute to transformative initiatives within the healthcare industry. • The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in developing and optimizing machine learning models, specifically within healthcare contexts. • We are looking for a results-oriented individual proficient in training and fine-tuning models, building robust, production-ready model inference pipelines, and conducting comprehensive exploratory data analysis and data enrichment. • Train, fine tune, and enhance LLM & NLP models using the open-source Python library ecosystem. • Experience with LLMs, Generative AI, and deep learning is a significant advantage. • Build data science and data engineering pipelines specific to analyzing clinical data, such as extracting information from medical text or images, or integrating uncertain information from multiple medical data sources. • Collaborate with our team on customer-facing projects, utilizing your expertise to create advanced machine learning, deep learning, large language models, and time series forecasting pipelines tailored to address specific business needs. • Ensure models are validated for issues like bias, overfitting, and concept drift to ensure reliability and effectiveness. • Engage directly with customers, requiring strong oral and written communication skills to convey complex technical concepts clearly. Requirements: • Proven experience in consistently delivering real-world projects covering the key responsibilities. • Knowledge that is limited to an academic setting, or to using existing APIs to building applications, is not sufficient for this role. • Hands-on experience with OMOP, FHIR, clinical terminologies, and understanding of the patient journey. • Strong background in healthcare-related fields such as medicine, pharma, bioinformatics, or biostatistics is highly beneficial. • A PhD in a relevant field is preferred but not required if exceptional experience is demonstrated. • Experience with John Snow Labs’ technology stack, such as Spark NLP or the medical language models, is a plus. Benefits: • A chance to work on cutting-edge problems in healthcare and life sciences, contributing to meaningful projects that impact patient outcomes. • Long-term freelancing contracts with a commitment of at least 30 hours per week. • The opportunity to grow your skills and knowledge, working with a team of big data and data science experts in a supportive, collaborative environment.
