ML Postdoc Researcher - Healthcare AI Innovation

Truveta transforms healthcare into intelligence. Built with and owned by US health systems united by a mission of Saving Lives with Data, Truveta powers breakthrough discoveries, auditable data fit for regulatory submissions, and AI that improves patient care.

At Truveta, we are building something that has never existed before, bringing together healthcare, science, and technology to tackle some of the most important challenges in human health. Our mission calls us to think big, move with urgency, and build with purpose. We are looking for exceptional people who are energized by hard problems, inspired by the opportunity to improve health, and committed to building a company and culture where talented people can do their best work.

Our team is a special combination of software, health, and big data experience. We are building a talented team of passionate, mission-oriented, and innovative thinkers.

Our headquarters are in the greater Seattle area, but we celebrate and embrace a remote culture.Participation in the Postdoctoral Research program requires that you are physically present in the United States for the duration of the program. #LI-remote

About Truveta

Truveta is transforming healthcare by enabling researchers, clinicians, and life sciences organizations to learn from one of the most comprehensive collections of de-identified patient data in the United States. With access to longitudinal electronic health record (EHR) data from over 120 million patients (which represents over a third of the US population), we are uniquely positioned to drive breakthroughs in clinical research and improve patient outcomes.

This Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to explore and develop novel applications of cutting-edge AI/ML technologies on large-scale real-world clinical data.

This role is designed for recent PhD graduates who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of machine learning in healthcare. You will work at the intersection of machine learning, clinical data, and biomedical science, identifying new opportunities where modern AI can unlock insights that were previously out of reach.

A key expectation is not just execution—but imagination: the ability to envision and prototype entirely new ways to use rich patient data to solve meaningful healthcare problems.

Who You Are

Curious and imaginative:You naturally think beyond existing solutions and ask “what hasn’t been done yet?”Impact-driven:You care about applying research to real-world healthcare problemsComfortable with ambiguity:You thrive in open-ended environments where defining the problem is part of the jobCollaborative:You enjoy working across domains and learning from experts in different fields

What You'll Do

Innovate:Identify and propose novel, high-impact applications of AI/ML using large-scale EHR dataResearch & Prototype:Design, develop, and evaluate state-of-the-art models (e.g., foundation models, multimodal learning, causal ML, generative AI)Work Across Modalities:Integrate structured and unstructured EHR data with emerging data types such as genomics, imaging, and clinical notesCollaborate Cross-Functionally:Partner with clinicians, data scientists, and product teams to translate research ideas into real-world solutions
