TL;DR · Decision Support Tools Engineer

The Decision Support Tools Engineer joins the New Medical Sensors team to develop and maintain automation scripts, pipelines, and interactive visualization tools for decision support algorithms on continuous physiological sensor platforms. The role involves building reusable toolkits, designing Design of Experiments matrices to evaluate algorithm parameters, and managing data wrangling workflows to transform raw sensor data into structured inputs. Key responsibilities include creating dashboards for performance analysis and documenting standard operating procedures to ensure reproducibility. Candidates must be proficient in Python using libraries like pandas and NumPy, and have experience with visualization tools such as Matplotlib, Plotly, or Streamlit. The role requires expertise in Git, handling time-series data, and utilizing generative AI tools like Copilot or Claude. This position focuses on improving medical outcomes by streamlining the development of wearable technologies for various disease states.

What you'll do

  • Develop and maintain automation scripts and pipelines to accelerate the design, testing, and deployment of decision support algorithms.
  • Build interactive visualization tools for algorithm performance analysis, trend qualification, and clinical feasibility review.
  • Design and implement Design of Experiments (DOE) matrices to evaluate algorithm parameters and edge-case scenarios.
  • Utilize enterprise AI tools and LLM platforms to prototype, iterate on, and scale internal tooling.
  • Create reusable toolkits and templates to automate reporting and analysis for developers and scientists.
  • Manage data wrangling workflows to transform raw sensor data into structured inputs for evaluation.
  • Document all tools, workflows, and standard operating procedures to ensure reproducibility and team adoption.
  • Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort and improve turnaround times in algorithm development workflows.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 1–3 years of professional experience.
  • Proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, and data manipulation using libraries like pandas or NumPy.
  • Demonstrated experience building data visualizations using tools such as Matplotlib, Plotly, or Streamlit.
  • Familiarity with version control systems like Git/GitHub and collaborative development workflows.
  • Experience using generative AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude) as a core part of a development workflow.
  • Comfort working with tabular and time-series data formats such as CSV and JSON.
  • Strong communication skills and a problem-solving mindset to independently build and deliver tools end-to-end.
