Hiring Manager
Janelle Muranaka
Responsibilities
Develop predictive ML models for treatment response, patient stratification, and disease characterization in epilepsy, ASD, MDD, and related CNS conditions
Build advanced ML architectures (transformers for time series, graph models, deep learning, probabilistic models, self-supervised learning) tailored to EEG and multimodal clinical datasets
Design and implement multimodal fusion approaches integrating EEG, imaging, genomics, and behavioral/clinical measures
Establish rigorous validation pipelines (nested CV, site-level generalization, calibration, ablation testing) aligned with clinical translational needs and regulatory expectations
Extract and model neurophysiological features, connectivity, spectral signatures, network dynamics, and developmental markers, relevant to epilepsy, ASD, and MDD
Apply interpretability tools (SHAP, saliency, attention analysis, feature attribution) to identify biomarkers that are both biologically meaningful and clinically actionable
Support translation of ML-derived biomarkers into candidate digital or physiological endpoints for clinical trials and treatment-selection tools
Collaborate with clinicians, neuroscientists, ML engineers, and external research partners across epilepsy, ASD, and MDD programs
Qualification
Required
Ph.D. or M.S. in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Computational Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related field
Strong experience developing ML models for high-dimensional biological or clinical datasets (time series strongly preferred)
Proficiency in Python and ML frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, and scikit-learn
Experience with time-series analysis or signal processing; EEG is a strong plus
Strong grounding in statistical rigor, experimental design, and robust validation methodology
Excellent communication skills and ability to articulate ML findings in clinical and scientific contexts
Preferred
Experience modeling patient heterogeneity, treatment response, or disease progression in epilepsy, ASD, or MDD
Expertise in multimodal ML, representation learning, self-supervised learning, or generative modeling
Experience with biomarker research, digital phenotyping, or translational clinical AI
Peer-reviewed publications in ML, neuroscience, biomedical engineering, or related areas
Experience working with clinical partners or biopharma collaborators
