Qualifications:

· PhD + 2 years of post-doctoral/industry experience in a relevant field (e.g., artificial intelligence/machine learning algorithms, bioinformatics, computer sciences, or engineering).

· 3+ years of experience in AI/MLA development, preferably in the healthcare or medical imaging sector.

· Experience with cloud computing platforms and big data technologies.

· Experience in AI-commercialization.

· Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, or TensorFlow/PyTorch.

· Experience with medical imaging analysis (e.g., MRI, CT, echocardiograms) and deep learning frameworks.

· Knowledge of healthcare data standards (HL7, DICOM, FHIR) and EHR integration.

· Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to translate clinical needs into AI-driven solutions.

· Familiarity with regulatory considerations for AI applications in healthcare.

· Strong organizational skills, and the ability to concurrently manage multiple tasks and projects.

· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively with a diverse team of healthcare professionals and researchers.

· Proficiency in using AI-focused software and familiarity with commonly used tools in AI.

· A high level of attention to detail and the ability to maintain confidentiality and accuracy in all research-related matters.

· Fluency in English or French is necessary; bilingual candidates will be considered favourably, as would proficiency in languages other than English (fluency, reading, writing, or understanding levels of language should be listed in CV or cover letter).
