Job description

Own the tissue-class segmentation and labeling models for the ultrasound CT clinical analysis layer, and the pipelines that make them trainable and verifiable.
Retune across 2D per-slice, 3D volumetric, and 2D×3D fusion as reconstructed image inputs are continuously updated, and clinical indications for use expand.
Define training/evaluation pipelines, datasets, and metrics from the ground up or from open source; map model behavior to user needs and design requirements.
Work with data labeling contractors, expert clinicians, and our internal cloud/data teams on labeling specs, QC, and dataset versioning.
Help productionize models into a versioned, HIPAA-bound analysis service: reproducible/low-latency inference, per-prediction confidence, drift monitoring, and safe fallbacks.

Requirements

Strong applied ML experience with a track record of developing new models - architecting, training, and evaluating from scratch as well as benchmarking against existing models.
Experience with image segmentation (semantic/instance, 2D and ideally 3D/volumetric) and the modeling and training-data choices that make it robust across diverse patient anatomy.
Comfortable moving fluidly between open-ended research iteration and producing quantifiable, testable models.
Fluent in modern deep-learning tooling (e.g., PyTorch) and current development practices.
Comfortable working under design controls, where model changes carry documentation and verification weight., * Image segmentation and label generation with modern architectures (U-Net / nnU-Net, 3D U-Net, transformer-based and promptable segmentation like SAM), including the geometry that ties voxel- and mesh-level predictions back to a coordinate frame.
Learning under limited or noisy supervision: self-supervised / semi-supervised methods (masked autoencoders, contrastive pretraining like DINO/SimCLR), active learning, weak labels, and simulation-driven pretraining.
Hands-on experience with data curation for ML: building datasets from messy, real-world sources, helping to define ground truth, and managing labeling or simulation pipelines (MONAI, ITK / SimpleITK, 3D Slicer).
Experience with segmentation models for ultrasound imaging, whether on synthetic or real images
ML for imaging or inverse problems in physics-based domains (CT, MRI, ultrasound, or adjacent), and comfort working alongside reconstruction/signal-processing teams.
Deploying models in versioned, auditable, high-stakes settings.
A background in anatomy, medical imaging, or body composition and prior work with existing segmentation models is a plus.
