About the job
The core of your role is designing, implementing, and training
algorithms that extract value from clinical data as well as to
collaborate in the development and maintenance of the main products of
our company . We don’t draw a hard line between our research and
engineering teams: you’ll do research and ship commercial quality
software that puts it to use. We mostly work in Python, but dip into
other languages when it makes sense to, so you’ll need to be comfortable
picking up from a range of tools :
Data processing pipelines
Data model transformations
Components of a multi-modal distributed database.
About you
You have proven skills of putting microservices to use, and you’re
comfortable with the containers in a cluster architecture. You work well
in a team, can teach & learn from others, and communicate what
you’re working on with non-technical team members.
Things You Might Do
IOMED is a startup, so you’ll have to be comfortable rolling up your
sleeves and doing whatever needs doing. However, you can definitely
expect to:
Build & evaluate ML-based algorithms for NLP tasks in clinical datasets
Hyper-parametrization and cross-validation of your models
Deploy and tweak the models to make them work in a production environment.
Testing, logging, metrics and alerting of the deployed services.
Collaborate on the writing of papers and posters
Things we expect
General knowledge of NLP and its tasks
Knowledge of Python, NumPy, Pandas, and a library of plots.
Machine learning theory, as well as bayesian statistics.
Training models on GPUs
Experience with a library of NN: Keras / Tensorflow / Pytorch/ others
What we offer
Gross annual wage: 30.000€-35.000€.
Full-time permanent contract
Profit-sharing scheme.
Flexi-time schedule, with possibility of home office once a week.
A warm, transparent and supportive team, with huge emphasis on work-life balance.
Most days, lunch together in our sunny terrace.
About IOMED
IOMED is a technological company of software development. It was launched in 2016, funded by local and international ventures.
We are passionate and talented young professionals, from all around
Spain and the world (It couldn't be any other way, as we're based in
beautiful and bright Barcelona). Our “dream team” is made up by
mathematicians, statisticians, bioinformaticians and physicians.
As a startup, we are looking for people who are eager to innovate
and be part of a project with impact on healthcare industry, enjoying
what we do, team-work and taking on new challenges.
IOMED is an equal opportunity employer. We are still a small team and
are committed to growing in an inclusive manner. We want to augment our
team with talented, dynamic people irrespective of race, color,
religion, national origin, sex, physical or mental disability, or age.
What we do
In the 322 million clinical consultations carried out in Spain every
year a large amount of data is collected in a free text format (up to
85% in Catalonia). This leads to enormous inefficiencies both in time
and cost for Clinical Research.
IOMED ́s work is to extract value from this real world data
collected during medical practice, which was, until now, inaccessible.
Our product unleashes data potential, enabling researchers and pharma
companies to easily make analytics and ML models on complex data, having
a direct impact on healthcare.
The tools we develop structure clinical texts written by physicians,
extracting and encoding relevant medical concepts like symptoms and
diseases, taking into account their context (negations, family/personal
background, past events).
Backed-up up by our innovative developments, IOMED envisions to
become the worldwide reference for Data Access in Clinical Research.
