Your role
In this role, you will develop and apply advanced foundation models, multimodal models, and generative AI methods for biomedical imaging, with particular emphasis on digital pathology, histology, and image-based characterization of biological systems.
You will conceptualize, design, train, adapt, and rigorously evaluate large-scale image and multimodal models. You will work with data such as H&E pathology, IHC, multiplex imaging, microscopy, and related biomedical imaging modalities, developing representations and models that capture biologically and clinically meaningful information.
You will investigate state-of-the-art vision and multimodal architectures, adapt relevant publicly available foundation models, and develop novel methods where appropriate. A central part of your work will be establishing robust evaluation and benchmarking approaches that characterize model performance, generalization, robustness, and scientific utility across datasets and downstream tasks.
You will work in an agentic scientific environment, contributing imaging models, methods, and code that can be integrated with scientific data, other modalities, and analytical tools. You will collaborate closely with pathology, translational medicine, biology, data science, and AI colleagues, as well as external scientific partners, and contribute to publications and conference presentations.
Who you are
- Master's degree or PhD in computer science, machine learning, computer vision, biomedical engineering, computational pathology, or a related quantitative discipline; PhD is strongly preferred.
- At least 3 years of relevant industry experience applying advanced machine learning to image-analysis problems.
- Deep hands-on expertise in designing, training, fine-tuning, and evaluating computer-vision, vision foundation, or multimodal models.
- Experience with biomedical imaging is strongly preferred, particularly digital pathology, histology, microscopy, IHC, or multiplex imaging.
- Strong Python skills and expertise with modern deep-learning frameworks such as PyTorch
- Experience training large models using GPU and cloud computing environments.
- Excellent understanding of model evaluation, benchmarking, generalization, dataset bias, and robustness.
- Experience with multimodal learning that connects imaging with molecular, clinical, textual, or other biological information is an advantage.
- Experience integrating models with agents, AI skills, or automated scientific workflows is highly desirable.
- Strong record of scientific or technical innovation demonstrated through publications, patents, open-source work, or high-impact industrial applications.
