About the role

FL127 is seeking a scientist to help connect the physiological signals our platform measures to what they indicate about a person. You will ground each signal in physiology, help design the human studies that test what it reflects, and build models that relate our measurements to reference measures and outcomes in small human cohorts. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • PhD in biomedical engineering, physiology, bioengineering, biophotonics, or a related field, or an MD/PhD, with substantial applied machine learning experience
  • Deep knowledge of human physiology in an area such as microcirculation, hemodynamics, tissue optics, skin biology, or cardiorespiratory physiology
  • Experience taking a measurement or digital biomarker through human studies, including endpoint selection, reference measurements, IRB-governed protocols, and agreement analysis
  • Statistical modeling on small human datasets, including within-subject and longitudinal designs
  • Proficiency in Python and the modern ML stack, and comfort working inside an existing research codebase
  • Enough imaging and signal-processing background to reason about how calibration, registration, and sampling affect a derived measurement
