- Research and integrate the latest advancements in AI, computer vision, and medical imaging into the platform.
- Work closely with cross-functional teams including developers, artists, and simulation specialists.
- Present technical findings, recommendations, and progress updates to stakeholders and senior management.
- Support the scaling and deployment of AI systems and infrastructure.
Requirements
- At least three years of experience developing and implementing deep learning models, especially for computer vision, medical imaging, segmentation and classification, and image generation.
- Master’s or Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field.
- Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch.
- Solid understanding of machine learning concepts, including generative AI models such as GANs and Diffusion Models
- Experience working with CT scans and medical imaging datasets: familiarity with medical imaging tools such as 3D Slicer is a strong plus.
- Experience with 3D modeling or parametric editing software, preferably Blender, or willingness to learn.
- Knowledge of MLOps practices and scalable AI infrastructure.
- Experience with Docker, containerization, and cloud platforms is highly desirable.
- Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills with the ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team environment.
