Role overview
We are seeking an innovative AI Engineer I to join our team at the Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital Data Science Center, where cutting-edge artificial intelligence meets healthcare delivery. This position offers a unique opportunity to collaborate and deploy AI/ML models that directly impact patient care and clinical workflows. You'll work at the intersection of multi-omics data, electronic health records, medical imaging, and clinical decision support systems.
What you'll work on
AI/ML Model Development & Deployment
- Collaborates closely with clinical researchers, physicians, and engineering teams to design, build, and deploy machine learning models for healthcare applications.
- Assists in the development of AI-powered solutions spanning genomics analysis, EHR data mining, medical imaging interpretation, and diagnostic support systems.
- Supports robust ML pipelines from research prototypes to production-ready systems in clinical environments.
- Ensures models meet healthcare regulatory standards and maintain high performance in real-world clinical settings.
Technical Implementation
- Assists in the design and implement scalable AI/ML architectures using modern frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn).
- Documents data pipelines for processing complex clinical data from sources like Epic Clarity, REDCap, omics platforms, and medical imaging systems.
- Develops and maintains infrastructure for integrating multi-modal healthcare data (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, imaging, EHR).
- Optimizes model performance for deployment on various platforms including cloud infrastructure and edge devices.
- Integrates AI models with existing healthcare IT systems and electronic health records.
Research & Innovation
- Stays current with latest developments in healthcare AI, including applications in precision medicine, computer vision, and natural language processing.
- Collaborates on research publications and presentations at medical and technical conferences.
- Participates in grant proposals and collaborative research initiatives with clinical departments.
- Performs other job-related duties as assigned.
What we're looking for
- Background in genomics data processing, bioinformatics pipelines, or clinical informatics.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Experience working with large-scale omics datasets (RNA-seq, whole genome/exome sequencing, proteomics).
- Understanding of clinical workflows and electronic health record systems.
- Experience with medical imaging analysis or natural language processing for clinical text.
