Lead design and execution of data model evaluation strategy for clinical information representation in healthcare AI platform.
О компании
- Knit Health is building a novel clinical foundation model to improve how healthcare is delivered. We combine expertise in AI with deep clinical knowledge to develop safe, trustworthy systems that improve care, expand access, and reduce waste.
- Knit is led by a founding team with roots at the University of California, Berkeley. The team has developed a novel AI architecture designed to reason like physicians. We are now using that foundation model, together with frontier clinical LLMs, to build a next-generation clinical intelligence platform for healthcare providers.
- We are venture backed and work with U.S.-based health systems and data providers.
Обязанности
- At the center of Knit's technology is the Knit Data Model (KDM), which transforms complex healthcare data into a structured representation that our clinical foundation model can learn from.
- We're hiring a Clinical Informaticist to help answer a fundamental question: How do we know whether our data model accurately captures the clinical information that matters most?
- You'll lead the design and execution of our data model evaluation strategy, developing rigorous methods to measure how well clinical information is represented, identifying where meaningful information may be lost, and recommending improvements.
- In your first six months, you'll establish a robust evaluation framework for our clinical data model, identify meaningful opportunities for improvement, and collaborate with the team to translate your findings into concrete changes to the model.
- This is a hands-on individual contributor role with significant ownership and influence. You'll work closely with clinicians, data engineers, data scientists, and AI researchers to shape how clinical information is represented and used across our technology.
- You'll report to the Senior Director of Data Science.
Требования
- Clinical informatics expertise: Strong understanding of clinical data systems, healthcare terminology, and how information is represented across electronic health records, claims, or related healthcare datasets.
- Research and evaluation: Experience independently developing research questions, designing evaluation frameworks, and translating findings into actionable recommendations.
- Technical capability: Ability to read and understand SQL and Python, clearly define analytical approaches, leverage AI-assisted tools to execute analyses, and critically evaluate results.
- Clinical terminology knowledge: Working familiarity with relevant coding standards such as ICD-10, SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm, or related systems.
- Communication and influence: Ability to work effectively across clinical and technical teams, defend analytical conclusions, and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
- Independent problem-solving: Comfort tackling ambiguous, open-ended problems where established methodologies may not yet exist.
- Relevant experience: Professional or research experience in clinical informatics, healthcare data science, biomedical informatics, or a closely related field. We value demonstrated expertise and ownership over a specific number of years.
Будет плюсом
- Advanced training in biomedical or clinical informatics, including a relevant master's degree or PhD.
- Clinical training (MD, DO, RN, PharmD, or similar) or sustained collaboration with practicing clinicians.
- Experience building or evaluating clinical data models, terminology mappings, or ontology systems, including OMOP or UMLS.
- Experience developing research methodologies, evaluating clinical data quality, or quantitatively assessing information loss.
- Familiarity with clinical foundation models, transformer architectures, or complex analysis using longitudinal healthcare data.
- Experience working with multi-source healthcare datasets, including EHRs, claims, registries, or health information exchanges.
- Experience reviewing clinical data transformation pipelines or working with large-scale data processing systems.
