About Autonomous Healthcare At Autonomous Healthcare, we are at the forefront of medical innovation, developing the next generation of devices that will revolutionize patient care. Our mission is to commercialize breakthrough medical technologies by leveraging cutting‑edge AI and autonomous systems. We believe that the best solutions are built together, and we are looking for a key member to join our collaborative R&D team.

Job Summary We are seeking a quantitative expert with a deep background in both

Operations Research (OR)

and

Machine Learning (ML)

to solve complex systems‑level challenges in healthcare. In this role, you will be a hybrid modeler and analyst, tasked with not only predicting outcomes but also prescribing optimal actions. You will develop sophisticated models to understand, predict, and optimize clinical and operational processes—from building machine learning systems that detect prescription anomalies to creating simulations that test the impact of new health policies. This is a unique opportunity to apply a powerful combination of predictive and prescriptive analytics to make a tangible impact on healthcare.

Key Responsibilities 1. Modeling, Simulation & Optimization (Operations Research Focus)

Develop

discrete event simulation

models to represent complex systems like patient journeys, clinical pathways, or pharmacy workflows.

Conduct

“what‑if” analysis

using these simulations to forecast the impact of strategic decisions (e.g., changes to medication formularies, new intervention programs).

Apply

mathematical optimization

and statistical modeling techniques to improve resource allocation, streamline processes, and recommend data‑driven solutions.

2. Predictive Modeling & Anomaly Detection (Machine Learning Focus)

Design, train, and deploy

machine learning models

to identify anomalous and high‑risk activities within large‑scale medication data.

Leverage both unsupervised (e.g., clustering, isolation forests) and supervised (e.g., classification) techniques to solve complex detection and prediction problems.

Perform advanced feature engineering to transform raw healthcare data into powerful signals for your models.

3. Foundational Analysis

Conduct exploratory data analysis (EDA) to form hypotheses and uncover underlying patterns in data.

Write advanced, efficient SQL queries to extract and manipulate data from our enterprise data warehouse.
