Position Description
Calico is seeking a Machine Learning Scientist/Senior Machine Learning Scientist to design, develop, and product ionize machine learning algorithms and software tools to analyze biological data sets. Such datasets span a variety of dimensionality (1D sequences, 2D images, 3D images, videos) and length scales (physiology to microscopy). This person will be part of a cross-functional effort to build a world-class computing and data analysis platform to support research efforts didates should be comfortable both with developing novel ML models and approaches as well as reproducing and extending the current published state of the art.
This person will also develop novel, scalable methods to solve difficult questions that help further Calico’s mission.
The ideal candidate should be familiar with state-of-the-art ML research, especially in the area of representation learning, self-supervised learning and/or generative models. Candidates will be autonomous in learning and applying the latest methods from relevant literature. Candidates must demonstrate a strong ability to communicate ideas and results through publications and presentations and be able to work cross-functionally to execute on complex projects.
Position Requirements
