About the position

We are seeking a highly motivated machine learning engineer to join our Imaging AI team in the Informatics and Predictive Sciences (IPS) organization. This team of computational scientists is responsible for advancing Bristol Myers Squibb's industry-leading pipeline through development and application of cutting-edge tissue-based image analysis approaches, often in multi-modal context (e.g. spatial transcriptomics, combining different imaging modalities or imaging with molecular data). We collaborate with various internal stakeholders, including pathologists, biologists, and other computational scientists to understand disease biology and contribute to the development of novel treatments. The team impacts all aspects of R&D at BMS, from early discovery through late-stage development. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and leading the implementation of our data and compute infrastructure, in close collaboration with Research IT and other IPS researchers. The infrastructure englobes high-performance compute for in-house model training, commercial solutions, and resources provided by external partners. This position would suit a researcher in imaging AI with experience in infrastructure, or an engineer with interest in AI research in a biomedical context.

Responsibilities

  • Collaboratively design and build an integrated ecosystem of resources for imaging research
  • Contribute to the development, deployment, and integration of new machine learning models
  • Design and implement robust and efficient data pipelines for ingesting, processing, and cleaning large pathology and cellular imaging datasets (e.g., whole-slide histology images, image annotations, slide/patient-level metadata, clinical endpoints)
  • Develop & maintain databases to catalog AI models, annotations, and metadata
  • Communicate technical findings effectively to scientific and non-technical audiences through presentations, reports, and documentation.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, AI or a related discipline and 8+ years of academic / industry experience
  • OR Master's Degree in Computer Science, AI or a related discipline and 6+ years of academic / industry experience
  • or PhD in Computer Science, AI or a related discipline and 4+ years of academic / industry experience
  • Strong proficiency in programming languages (Python, R, etc.) and data analysis tools (Jupyter Notebooks, Pandas, RStudio, etc.)
  • Proficiency in building and deploying machine learning models (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch)
  • Proficiency in container strategies such as Docker, ECS, and ECR
  • Experience with machine learning lifecycle management tools (e.g., MLflow and WandB) is a plus
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, etc.) is a plus
  • Prior experience with developing machine learning pipelines for histological and/or cellular imaging tasks is preferred
  • Strong problem-solving skills through rigorous and creative thinking
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, including an ability to collaborate effectively with a wide variety of stakeholders
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively while balancing several concurrent, fast-paced projects.

Nice-to-haves

  • PhD (or MSc with 4+ years experience) in Computer Science, AI or a related discipline
