## About the role

We’re looking for an experienced ML Tech Lead to help build the next generation of Evvy’s diagnostic and prognostic products. This person will lead the small but growing ML team within R&D responsible for turning Evvy’s unique microbiome dataset into models that can meaningfully improve how women’s health conditions are understood, predicted, and treated.

## What they're looking for

- 6–9 years of experience in machine learning or data science, including prior experience managing ML or research ICs at a company. Academic advising alone is not enough
- Deep enough technical fluency to review methods, models, and code credibly without doing the building yourself. You can hold the technical quality bar on work you didn't write
- A track record of helping technical teams ship on realistic timelines. You know how to translate ambitious science into a credible plan, and you push back on estimates that aren't grounded in reality
- Strong cross-functional collaboration with product, clinical, and engineering. You can run a productive conversation across all three without losing anyone in the room
- Comfort communicating with non-technical stakeholders. You can take a complicated methodological tradeoff and frame it as a clear product or business decision
- Microbiome, healthcare, or diagnostics experience is a significant plus, but not required. Senior ML or data science leadership in a science-driven product company is the bar
