Desirable

• We are seeking a highly skilled and mission-driven Data Scientist to join our customer team and lead the development of our Patient Risk Scoring machine learning initiatives
• In this role, you will build predictive models that identify high-risk patients for interventions, ultimately improving patient outcomes and optimizing care delivery
• You will leverage Microsoft Fabric to manage end-to-end machine learning workflows, drawing insights from Electronic Health Record (EHR) data sources
• Model Development & Deployment: Design, train, evaluate, and deploy machine learning models to predict patient risk scores (e.g., medication refusal, non-compliance, decompensation etc.)
• EHR Data Engineering & Processing: Extract, clean, and transform healthcare data from EHR systems (e.g., Credible) to build robust feature sets for predictive modeling
• End-to-End Analytics with Microsoft Fabric: Utilize Microsoft Fabric’s unified analytics platform (including Data Engineering, Data Science, and Real-Time Analytics workloads) to orchestrate data pipelines, manage Lakehouse architectures, and scale ML training/inference
• Clinical Collaboration: Partner closely with clinical stakeholders, medical officers, and care teams to define risk cohorts, ensure the clinical validity of model features, and translate model outputs into actionable clinical workflows
• MLOps & Monitoring: Establish continuous integration, deployment, and monitoring of ML models to track data drift, model degradation, and fairness/bias over time
• Compliance & Privacy: Ensure all data handling and modeling practices strictly adhere to healthcare regulations (e.g., HIPAA, HITRUST) and maintain the highest standards of data security and patient privacy
• Full-time: 8 hours a day
• Schedule: Mon – Fri 9-5 (US EST) overlap with team at least 4 hours
• Team Structure: Work independently on assigned tasks with support from experienced team members
• Communication: Primarily asynchronous via email and MS Teams
