About Us
At Prenuvo, we are on a mission to flip the paradigm from reactive “sick-care” to proactive health care. Our award-winning whole body scan is fast (under 1 hour), safe (MRI has no ionizing radiation), and non-invasive (no contrast). Our unique integrated stack of optimized hardware, software, and increasingly AI, coupled with the patient-centric experience across our domestic and global clinics, have allowed us to lead the change against “we caught it too late again".
We are looking for a Senior AI Applied Scientist II to independently own a model domain end-to-end within our AI Research org, from problem framing through validated, production-deployed models.
As Prenuvo’s AI org moves from task-specific models toward foundational work (meaning pre-trained backbones, multi-task heads, and the addition of clinical text and structured data), we need scientists who design experiments rather than only run them, diagnose failure modes on their own, and shape how the team approaches a whole class of problems. You will work at the intersection of deep learning, medical imaging, and clinical translation, accountable for both the rigor of the science and the delivery of the work.
This hybrid role is based in Vancouver. We expect you to be technically credible enough to review model architectures, challenge assumptions, and roll up your sleeves when it matters. We also expect you to build a team environment where people do their best work.
This role does not provide visa sponsorship. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in Canada at the time of hire and must not require employer sponsorship for a work visa (current or future).
Help reshape the world through proactive healthcare while working with cutting-edge technology and high performing teams with deep expertise - join us to make a difference in people’s lives!
What You’ll Do
- Lead development of foundation models and multimodal systems for whole-body MRI, advancing self-supervised and large-scale representation learning across imaging, radiology, lab, and longitudinal data.
- Own experiment design and validation study scoping for your domain, diagnosing failure modes independently.
- Drive the data quality, annotation criteria, and quality standards your models depend on, engaging directly with clinical framing for your domain.
- Guide the strategic application of generative and agentic AI, including LLM adaptation and workflow orchestration, to accelerate research and clinical workflows.
- Contribute modeling approaches that others adopt, and define and execute a research roadmap that advances Prenuvo's foundation-model capabilities.
