Job description
Role Overview
This position offers a unique opportunity to develop a medical platform that translates everyday smartphone data into clinically actionable screening tools. Unlike typical wearables, this role focuses on prevention by delivering insights directly where they matter most.
Company & Team
Join a VC-backed HealthTech startup in Munich, funded by leading European venture capital and prominent US angel investors, including founders from Tesla and Canva. The team is small, under 10 members, and characterized by a culture of high autonomy and intense dedication.
Responsibilities
As the founding data scientist, you will design and implement advanced reasoning engines that convert raw, multimodal smartphone signals into trusted clinical recommendations. You will also establish the groundwork for a conversational medical assistant integrated with the platform.
Technical Environment
The technology stack includes Python, PyTorch, and git, with an emphasis on statistical methods, machine learning expertise, and signal processing across diverse input types.
Qualifications
The ideal candidate has at least 4 years of industry experience or a PhD with over 1 year in regulated sectors like healthcare or banking. You should have proven experience deploying machine learning models in production environments beyond prototyping stages. Backgrounds in psychometrics, mobile sensing, biomedical signal processing, or Bayesian healthcare research are highly appropriate.
Work Culture & Expectations
This is a demanding role suited for highly motivated individuals prepared for intensive workloads exceeding 60 hours per week. Candidates seeking strict work-life balance or early daily finishes should consider other opportunities.
Compensation & Location
The position offers a base salary between €90,000 and €140,000 annually, complemented by significant equity participation. This full-time role requires in-person attendance in Munich, Bavaria, Germany.
