Full Job Description
Minimum qualifications:
  • PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computational Biology, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2 years of experience (industry or internships) in building world models for adaptive systems, foundation models, continuous dynamical systems, state-space models, and deep generative architectures.
  • Experience with model robustness, out-of-distribution generalization, and uncertainty quantification.
  • Research experience with first-author publications at machine learning venues or domain journals (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, etc.).

Preferred qualifications:
  • Strong experience learning underlying system dynamics from partially observable environments, managing irregular sampling, missing modalities, and latent state estimation.
  • Experience applying these methodologies to biomedical domains, framing multi-modal healthcare data, longitudinal EHRs (e.g., MIMIC-IV), and physiological telemetry as complex adaptive systems.
  • Proficiency in Python and modern deep learning frameworks (JAX, PyTorch, or TensorFlow).
  • Strong collaborative skills for working in interdisciplinary teams alongside clinical partners.
  • Passion for AI technology and all of its possibilities.


About the job

As a Research Scientist, you'll setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly, managing deadlines and deliverables while applying the latest theories to develop new and improved products, processes, or technologies. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, our research scientists work on real-world problems that span the breadth of computer science, such as machine (and deep) learning, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more.

As a Research Scientist, you'll also actively contribute to the wider research community by sharing and publishing your findings, with ideas inspired by internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world.

Frontier Health is developing foundational biomedical intelligence to transform outcomes for complex systemic diseases. We build physiological world models and agentic decision systems that simulate disease advancement and treatment responses across critical care, oncology, and metabolic health. By bridging multi-modal telemetry, EHR data, and reinforcement learning, we are shifting healthcare from reactive observation to proactive intervention.

As a Research Scientist, you will advance foundational models for human biology. You will manage problems spanning continuous dynamical systems and counterfactual reasoning to decode pathophysiology.
