Paradigm is rebuilding the clinical research ecosystem by creating a platform that enables equitable access to trials for all patients while enhancing trial efficiency and reducing the barriers to participation for healthcare providers. Incubated by ARCH Venture Partners and backed by leading healthcare and life sciences investors, Paradigm aims to break down barriers across the trial ecosystem through one seamless infrastructure implemented at healthcare provider organizations, bringing potentially life-saving therapies to patients faster.

Our team is diverse in its experience and committed to the company’s mission to create equitable access to clinical trials for any patient, anywhere. Join us, and bring your expertise, passion, creativity, and drive as we work together to realize this mission.

We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will contribute to building NLP and LLM-based models to streamline trial execution activities and integrate them into provider workflows. This is an opportunity to contribute to developing innovative tools to improve protocol design, increase patient recruitment, and speed up clinical trial conduct. Your work will positively impact the lives of patients and help move the science and practice of clinical research forward.

What You'll Do:

  • Build, test, and deploy ML models and pipelines at scale, working collaboratively with other engineers and data scientists.
  • Collaborate with clinicians, informaticists, and engineers to implement solutions that align with company goals.
  • Develop and maintain GenAI/LLM-based models to streamline trial execution activities, including gathering data, training, and evaluating models.
  • Work with engineering teams to integrate models into production systems and build tools for monitoring and improving model performance.
  • Communicate technical insights and findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders within the company.

Who You Are:

  • Masters or PhD in statistics, computer science, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of experience as a machine learning engineer or data scientist, ideally in or adjacent to the healthcare industry.
  • Hands-on experience in training, evaluating, deploying, and fine-tuning ML models.
  • Proficiency with Python, SQL and familiarity with various machine learning algorithms and statistics.
  • Experience in working in production-level engineering architecture, including pipelines and model deployment.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to collaborate effectively across teams.
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, mission-driven startup environment.

Bonus:

  • Experience working with oncology and/or clinical trials data.
  • Familiarity with developing GenAI/LLM-based models and working with open-source frameworks for LLM applications.
  • Previous experience in an early-stage startup environment is a plus.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.


Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
