Original posting

Lumiata | Onsite | San Mateo | Data Engineer Lumiata | Onsite | San Mateo | Systems Administrator We're a medical technology company using machine learning and massive amounts of patient data to improve how the healthcare system works. Our tools process millions of patient records to predict what kinds of medical risk and problems will befall a patient and other medically relevant parameters. Join us to learn about the many intricacies of medical data, how to handle very large volumes of patient records, and how to build pipelines to operationalize cutting-edge machine learning models. Data Engineer: We work mostly in Python, Scala with some Java here and there. Main technologies include Spark, TensorFlow and Hadoop among others. We're looking to build more robust pipelines to understanding transform raw, often human-entered data into standards-compliant forms, and to deploy a wide variety of machine learning/AI models in a scalable, traceable manner. Systems Administrator: We handle very private data, so security and compliance with health industry standards is a must. Come learn how to meet the stringent requirements to be a responsible caretaker for sensitive health data. We have in-house clusters some Cloudera based and some VMware based, running a variety of "big-data" tools. We're looking to streamline our infrastructure while building it out or adding off-site capabilities, and to implement strong disaster recovery and security protocols. Odds and ends: mostly onsite, free lunch, work from home Wednesdays, ~20 employees, growing in a field that really affects peoples lives. Contact Nicolas at ntilmans@lumiata.com
