Senior software engineer role focused on building production-ready computer vision pipelines for extracting structured data from clinical images in healthcare supply chain.
Responsibilities
- Clarium builds computer vision pipelines that extract structured data from clinical images under real-world conditions. This role owns the end-to-end pipeline: object detection, identification, reconciliation, and data extraction from images captured under variable lighting, camera angles, and workflow conditions with zero tolerance for errors.
- You’ll design and build production-ready CV pipelines that combine state-of-the-art object detection models, multimodal LLM/LVM APIs, and barcode/label decoding to produce structured, auditable inventory data that clinical and supply chain workflows depend on. This has direct implications for patient safety, billing accuracy, and supply chain optimization.
- Design, build, implement and optimize multi-stage CV pipelines spanning segmentation, object detection, multimodal LLM/LVM extraction, machine-readable code decoding, and multi-source reconciliation
- Train or fine-tune detection models on custom medical supply datasets
- Build and own dataset strategy - leverage augmentation and synthetic data generation to improve the training and testing datasets when data doesn’t exist.
- Monitor and improve pipeline accuracy — instrument field-level metrics, diagnose failure modes, and systematically improve precision/recall through model iteration and preprocessing optimization
- Design persistence schemas and audit data models that make every extraction independently reviewable
- Maintain and extend the async Python backend services that surface pipeline results to downstream clinical workflows
Nice to have
- OCR pipelines for label/packaging text extraction
- Experience with barcode/QR/UDI decoding and preprocessing strategies that improve decode rates
- MLOps experience: Docker, CI/CD, model versioning, A/B testing
- Workflow orchestration tools (Temporal, Prefect, Airflow)
- Healthcare or supply chain domain experience
- Familiarity with medical device identification standards (UDI, GS1)
Conditions
- Target Base Salary Range: $170K - $210K
- The base salary Clarium offers may vary depending upon the ultimate scope and responsibilities of the position and on the candidate's job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total package will include equity, in addition to a full range of medical and/or other benefits, depending on the position offered. Pay and benefits are subject to change at any time, consistent with the terms of any applicable compensation or benefit plans.
- Incentive Stock Options proportionate to your salary
- Fully remote, with a NYC co-working space available; distributed team across multiple time zones with opportunities for in-person time
- Unlimited PTO
- Top-tier health, vision, and dental benefits
- 401K
- The opportunity to build on a strong foundational team with deep data and engineering roots at a stage where your work genuinely shapes the product
Other
- The healthcare industry overspends on its supply chain by over $25B each year — the result of fragmented data, inefficient workflows, and wasted supplies. Clarium is fixing that. Our AI-powered platform, Astra OS, gives hospitals end-to-end visibility into their supply chain operations, automating workflows and surfacing actionable insights so supply chain teams can focus on what matters most: patient care. We're trusted by some of the world's leading health systems, including Yale New Haven Health, Stanford, Geisinger, and Kaiser Permanente.
- Founded in 2020, Clarium has raised $43M in total funding. Our Series A was led by Northzone, with participation from General Catalyst, AlleyCorp, Kaiser Permanente Ventures, Texas Medical Center Ventures, and 1984 Ventures.
- 5+ years experience in computer vision and object detection
- Hands-on experience training and fine-tuning detection models
- Experience building OCR pipelines for label/packaging text extraction
- Strong Python skills with experience in OpenCV, image preprocessing, and augmentation techniques
- Production experience with multimodal LLM APIs for structured data extraction and validation
- Backend engineering: FastAPI, Pydantic v2, PostgreSQL, async Python
- Clarium is committed to promoting an inclusive work environment free of discrimination and harassment. We value a diverse and balanced team where everyone can belong.
