What You Can Expect

This role sits at the intersection of data operations and applied machine learning, focusing on the curation, quality, and lifecycle management of field data used in production ML models. The role emphasizes data curation, governance, workflow automation, and model sustainment. In addition, the candidate may contribute to feature engineering, model monitoring, and retraining workflows. The candidate will work closely with multidisciplinary teams including Data Scientists and ML engineers, Software Engineers, QA teams, and clinical collaborators in a regulated medical device environment. The ideal candidate is rigorous, innovative, hands-on, and comfortable working in a technical research environment where responsibilities may evolve over time. 

How You'll Create Impact

• Curate and process field data and analytics files to sustain and improve ML models.
• Maintain data infrastructure including governance, lineage, versioning, and quality control.
• Build and automate tools, scripts, and pipelines for data curation workflows (annotation, tagging, dataset preparation).
• Maintain and improve internal applications supporting annotation and training data pipelines.
• Ensure clean, traceable, and compliant datasets feeding production systems.
• Process and analyze field analytics data to identify and resolve data quality issues.
• Ensure HIPAA compliance, data privacy, access control and secure data management practices.
• Contribute to AI research initiatives and propose innovative solutions leveraging modern AI technologies.
• Support R&D and Product teams with AI-ready curated datasets.
• Participate in research, testing and validation activities.
