About Us: Artera is an artificial intelligence company dedicated to transforming cancer care. We’ve developed foundation models that analyze clinical and pathology data, generating actionable insights that guide therapy selection and improve outcomes for cancer patients. By continuously improving these models, we aim to uncover the biological mechanisms driving cancer progression.

We're looking for an experienced machine learning engineer to own AI biomarker development end to end — from problem framing with clinical and biostatistics partners, through model development and validation, to regulatory submission and production deployment. Beyond owning a biomarker program, you'll take on the hardest cross-cutting problems in our field: robustness across scanners and sites, mechanistic interpretability of model decisions, and the next generation of our pathology foundation models.

Essential Responsibilities

  • Lead the technical effort and define the strategic vision for patient-facing products, in partnership with product, biostatistics, clinical development, and regulatory/quality.
  • Design and build AI-based biomarkers on multimodal data — including whole-slide images, clinical variables, and molecular data — to predict patient outcomes, treatment benefit, and molecular traits.
  • Advance our core self-supervised foundation models and the downstream architectures built on them (multiple-instance learning, time-to-event / hazard models, segmentation and classification components), with generalization as a first-order objective.
  • Own score reproducibility across scanners, i
