healthcare outcomes. The backbone of our consistent success has been our obsession with
data and technology. At Episource, all of our strategic initiatives start with the question - how
can data be “deployed”? Our analytics platforms and datalakes ingest huge quantities of data
daily, to help our clients deliver services. We have also built our own machine learning and NLP
platform to infuse added productivity and efficiency into our workflow. Combined, these build a
foundation of tools and practices used by quantitative staff across the company.
We’re looking to hire someone to help scale Machine Learning and NLP efforts at Episource.
You’ll work with the team that develops the models powering Episource’s product focused on
NLP driven medical coding. Some of the problems include improving our ICD code
recommendations, clinical named entity recognition and information extraction from clinical
notes.
This is a role for highly technical engineers who combine outstanding oral and written
communication skills, and the ability to code up prototypes and productionalize using a large
range of tools, algorithms, and languages. Most importantly they need to have the ability to
autonomously plan and organize their work assignments based on high-level team goals.
You will be responsible for setting an agenda to develop and build machine learning platforms
that positively impact the business, working with partners across the company including
operations and engineering. You will be working closely with the machine learning team to
design and implement back end components and services. You will be evaluating new
technologies, enhancing the applications, and providing continuous improvements to produce
high-quality software.
