Member of Technical Staff, Compiler

About the Role

Join a health technology team building a production compiler that turns clinical standards into structured, executable decision logic. This research-focused role combines experimentation with frontier models and hands-on engineering, helping make clinical recommendations traceable, complete, and verifiable.

What You'll Do

• Build production pipelines that parse clinical standards and transform them into validated executable modules.
• Design and refine a target syntax for representing guideline logic.
• Run experiments with open and closed models, fine-tuning, and constrained decoding.
• Develop benchmarks, datasets, metrics, and adversarial cases to assess clinical fidelity and recommendation correctness.
• Analyze model errors and turn findings into experiments and improvements to the production compiler.
• Build deterministic validators using static analysis, constraint solving, or formal methods to identify ambiguity, contradictions, and gaps in source material.
• Collaborate with clinicians and technical leadership to validate system outputs.

What We're Looking For

• At least 3 years of research or industry experience, or final-year PhD or postdoctoral experience, along with production engineering experience beyond research roles.
• Experience shipping ML or NLP systems to production, with production-level Python, PyTorch, and Transformers skills.
• Experience with LLM evaluation, training, or prompt engineering, and a track record of validating model outputs.
• A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, machine learning, mathematics, or a related technical field.
• Clear technical writing, including the ability to explain failed experiments and uncertainty.
• Experience with compilers, program synthesis, formal methods, static analysis, IR design, constraint solving, SAT/SMT, or domain-specific languages is valuable.
• Healthcare, safety-critical, or regulated-domain experience is valuable. Familiarity with FHIR or HL7 v2 is also relevant.
• Comfort working across disciplines and with ambiguity, and willingness to attend in-person offsites several times per year.
