AI/ML EngineerAbout Innolitics

We're a remote-only team of 14 software engineers helping accelerate progress in the medical device industry. We focus on software-only medical "devices", but we sometimes work with physical devices too. We're accelerating progress in a few ways: First and foremost, we help our clients write software for their medical devices. Second, we create tools to help startups efficiently navigate this highly regulated industry–e.g., a "regulatory documents as code" framework or a web-applications that make the FDA's public databases easier to browse. Third, we share our knowledge through the articles we write. You can help us make this happen.

The U.S. healthcare industry is less prone to the booms and busts of the economic cycle. It is a good choice for those looking for a stable job in this economic climate. If you have recently been laid off or are concerned about your job security, we are hiring and would love to talk to you. Additionally, investment in the medical device industry is still booming as investors are moving money to safter assets, in part due to COVID, and AI/ML is making its way into the clinic. It's a good time to be in this space and we expect to grow significantly over the next few years.

What you'll do as a AI/ML Engineer at Innolitics

You’ll work with one of our clients, helping them write software for their medical devices following our end to end AI SOP. Most projects follow an agile process and we demo progress to clients once a week. You’ll be responsible for gathering requirements from the client, designing the software architecture, implementing it, testing it, analyzing risks, and documenting your work. You’ll also be responsible for reviewing other engineer’s code (and your code will be reviewed too).

Since we work in a regulated industry, you’ll need to learn about the standards and regulations that apply to us to be effective. We don’t expect that you would know about these when you join us. Most of them are reasonable and merely require companies to show they are following best practices.

Sometimes you’ll work alongside the client’s engineering team, and other times you’ll work on a team of one, two, or three engineers. If you’re the only engineer on a project, you’ll be primarily responsible for its success. Sometimes you may have more than one project at a time (but not expected to work more than 40 hours per week).

In addition to client work, you may work on our internal projects, including possibly our open-source projects.

Why would you want to work for us?Meaningful work

We only work on fulfilling projects—ones that we believe improve the world. For example, our current projects include software for radiation oncology clinics, a startup building an medical device to detect ear infections, open-source software used by neurosurgeons and researchers, software for tracking metastatic cancer, and several others.

You can see past projects in our portfolio.

Compensation

The salary for the position is $105k - $145k/year, depending on ability and experience. We also have a quarterly profit sharing program. Typical profits range from $10k to $60k per year depending on company profits, performance reviews, and time at Innolitics.

Financially Stable

We operate exclusively in the healthcare sector and do not take on debt which shields us from boom and bust economic cycles. We have never had to lay off employees because of a recession.

Tight-knit and growing

We’re tight-knit, profitable, and growing quickly. If you work with us you can participate in our growth and help define the direction we move in. There will also be opportunities to grow your career. You can also wear many hats and contribute to the company beyond software development.

Talented and fun teammates

Work with a team of talented, mission-driven engineers who will help you become a better engineer. We're also a lot of fun and have a close-knit group, despite being fully-remote.

Stay relevant

We invest in the personal and professional development of all our team members. We dedicate two and a half hours on Wednesday afternoons to ongoing learning. Here is a list of our previous learning topics.

You’ll also have opportunities to change projects from time to time and be involved with many more.

Remote only

We’ve been remote-only since 2012. You can live wherever you want within the United States except for Alaska and Hawaii.

Balance

We love what we do, but we also have lives outside of work. We have flexible work hours. You are free to work at your own schedule as long as you are not blocked or do not block others. Most individual contributors have an hour worth of meetings a week.

We provide two weeks of paid time off your first year, three weeks your second and third years, and four weeks for each year after that.

Benefits

We provide a 401(k), with Traditional and Roth options. Innolitics makes an annual contribution, equal to 3% of your salary, to your 401(k) once you’ve worked with us for six months. This contribution vests immediately. The 401(k) plan includes very low-cost index mutual funds, and we cover all the plan costs.

We provide company health insurance (read more about this in our handbook). We reimburse internet costs up to $1200/year and provide a $500/year equipment stipend.

What happens after you apply

We’ll read your email and review your resume.

If it looks like you’re a good fit for the role, we’ll get in touch. Our typical interview process has four steps:

30-minute phone interview with Yujan (our CTO).
60-minute technical interview with two engineers on our team.
90-minute higher-level technical interview with David and Yujan (our founders).
Two reference checks
