Beacon Biosignals is transforming precision medicine for the brain through at-home EEG and biosignal platforms for clinical development and diagnostics. The company combines EEG and cardiopulmonary signals to deliver reimbursable assessments for sleep and central nervous system disorders. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you'll join Beacon's analytics and machine learning domain, working alongside data scientists, neuroscientists, engineers, and clinicians to develop, deploy, and maintain machine and deep learning models that analyze brain and biosignal data for advancing sleep, neurological, and psychiatric therapy development. Key responsibilities include: - Lead the entire biosignal-based algorithm development lifecycle for medical devices, from specifications and data curation through production, maintenance, and documentation - Select and implement appropriate methods for each problem, knowing when to apply deep learning versus other techniques - Enhance internal ML/DL tools, introduce new model architectures, and refine codebases for reusability and rapid experimentation - Establish and spread best practices ensuring algorithms are user-friendly, well-documented, and thoroughly tested with unit tests, CI/CD, and non-regression testing - Present results to stakeholders and support client-facing projects to understand algorithm impact - Contribute to both existing deployed algorithms and future algorithm development You bring 4+ years of industry experience in machine learning and deep learning, particularly in health sciences or regulated fields, with a proven track record of production deployments. You have strong expertise in digital signal processing (DSP) and statistics, proficiency with PyTorch or similar frameworks, and familiarity with latest deep learning advances (Transformers, ViT, large-scale modeling). You follow ML engineering best practices including testing, version control, code reviews, documentation, Dockerization, and CI/CD. Experience with biosignals, medical imaging, or large time-series datasets is valued. You thrive in collaborative environments, communicate complex technical topics effectively to diverse audiences, and are excited about the full algorithm development lifecycle from scoping through client engagement. Beacon maintains office hubs in Boston, New York City, and Paris with robust asynchronous work practices supporting a first-class remote experience.
