About

Help make a difference for those living with rare diseases by volunteering with the Rare Genomics Institute (RG). Our non-profit organization is committed to advocating for rare disease patients by connecting them with next generation sequencing, digital health researchers, cutting-edge medical devices and knowledge sharing resources. We are working on a project to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to bring current, scientifically accurate and understandable information on all known rare diseases to our online platforms. To do this, we are seeking a dedicated, innovative, technically astute AI/ML Scientist to join our team. This position will be responsible for identifying and implementing artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions in collaboration with our existing project team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in leveraging generative AI data sources and transitioning them to a user-friendly website interface. This role will help research, select, design, and train Natural Language Processing (NLP) and generative AI models for the project. The final output will present medically and scientifically vetted disease information that is understandable to non-experts. We expect that patients, family members, caregivers, researchers and those simply interested in specific rare diseases will utilize this information to understand and cope with rare conditions, and to learn about causes and treatment strategies. We will provide this service free of charge and open to all. Bachelor’s or higher degree in Computer Science, Data Science or a related field; strong foundation in mathematics, statistics and algorithms. Excellent communications skills to work with cross-functional teams and non-technical members. Experience with LLM, RAG and vector databases to create advanced generative AI prompts to obtain relevant data from multiple sources and consolidating the information to identify and remove inaccuracies. Specialized NLP/Generative AI experience for transformer models and domain-specific information retrieval. Experience with AI development tools and frameworks such as Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Hugging Face, or similar. Experience with front-end/back-end integration of AI models, especially for delivering accessible, plain-language content to lay audiences. Responsibilities: Design and execute tests to validate model accuracy, trustworthiness and continuous learning capabilities. As needed, reach out and engage with external collaborators or resources to support project objectives. Working with the project team, identify key tasks, timelines, risks and final objectives. Attend bi-weekly team meetings and regularly engage with team members remotely. Ensure that final products comply with data ethics, security, and medical domain knowledge standards.
