Machine Learning Engineer, Natural Language Processing

NOTE:

Exceptional candidates who can fulfill job responsibilities even in the absence of prior experience are encouraged to apply. Above all, we are looking for exceptional, versatile engineers!The Role

The AI/ML team is of critical importance to Oplus’ mission. The team works on projects that make health care safer, more efficient and effective, and accessible to a broader set of patients. The AI/ML projects are designed to ultimately deliver on the promise of AI-driven health care. As a member of the Oplus’ AI/ML team, you will be in a unique position to develop and accelerate the pace at which AI is applied to critical health care operations and deployed at the point of care. Team engineers will contribute to the development of various AI-ML products and will make critical decisions that will influence not only the team but the overall achievement of Oplus’ mission. AI/ML models designed, built, and deployed will have a direct and immediate impact on nearly 25% of the US health care population spread across 21 states.Responsibilities

Develop, prototype, benchmark, and deploy state-of-the-art NLU, NLG, IRQA, machine translation, and dialog system models.Design scalable and reliable data pipelines to implement and monitor models.Identify, research, and analyze new data sources to improve model accuracy.Work cross-functionally with software engineers, doctors, allied healthcare staff, hospital support staff, and other health system representatives to continuously improve performance.Develop production code to run locally and in the cloud – debug and tune production systems.Requirements

The team operates in both research and production settings. An ideal candidate has a strong predilection for good software and the processes that make it, including debugging/profiling, and version control.Experience with data science, statistical methods, and machine learning.Advanced knowledge in model evaluation, tuning, and performance.
