Overview:Do you want to be a part of something purposeful, something bigger than yourself? Are you looking to apply all your data science experience and insights to solve meaningful problems? If so, you may be the person we're looking for to join Azra AI on our mission to advance healthcare through clinical intelligence and automation.
At Azra AI, we empower health systems to improve clinical workflows by analyzing pathology and radiology reports in real-time and identifying cancer or other diagnoses. These reports are delivered to clinicians in an easy-to-use workflow tool that enables patients to get care quickly while allowing clinicians to focus on what they do best: caring for patients.
As the Principal Data Scientist, you will lead the development of advanced AI models that address key healthcare challenges. This role is ideal for someone experienced in end-to-end data science, from data acquisition to model validation and deployment. You will work with cross-functional teams to develop models that directly impact patient care, focusing on oncology, cardiology, neurology, radiology, and pathology applications.
Your Adventure at Azra AI:In this role, you will have the opportunity to utilize your expertise in data science to address critical healthcare challenges. From processing unstructured clinical data to building predictive AI models, you'll play a key role in advancing healthcare through innovation. You will also be involved in analyzing radiology images and integrating AI-driven image analysis techniques to enhance clinical outcomes. You'll collaborate with various teams to drive impactful solutions. If you thrive in an environment where you can be hands-on, solve complex problems, and collaborate to achieve meaningful results, this role is for you.
