ViyaMD | Staff Software Engineer, Staff ML Engineer | SF Bay Area | ONSITE
ViyaMD is building a physician-grade clinical intelligence platform for legal, insurance, and healthcare teams. We analyze large, messy medical record sets and turn them into clinically accurate timelines, reasoning, and insights in minutes.
We’re hiring for two senior roles:
# Staff Software Engineer: Own core product and platform systems: medical record ingestion, document understanding pipelines, backend/data infrastructure, clinical workflow, and production reliability.
* Experience with distributed systems, data-intensive apps, or large-scale document processing
* Ability to own ambiguous problems from architecture through production
* Interest in healthcare, clinical data, legal-tech, or AI products
# Staff ML Engineer: Own how ViyaMD evaluates and improves its clinical AI: define eval metrics, run model/agent evaluations, improve prompts and workflows, and close the loop through better retrieval, agentic systems, and fine-tuned models.
We’re looking for:
* 5–8+ years of professional experience
* Strong hands-on AI/ML evaluation experience
* Experience with LLMs, RAG, agents, fine-tuning, or applied ML systems
* Fluency in Python
* Healthcare or clinical experience is a strong plus, but not required
We’re especially excited about people who want to set the technical bar, work close to real users and data, and build AI systems that must be accurate and trusted in high-stakes domains.
You'd work directly with our founding team, with real influence over how we build. Comp: competitive salary, meaningful early-stage equity, and benefits. Email me at hari AT viyamd.com, if you're interested.
I have always had a significant mood boost from taking probiotics - either from food or as supplements. Some forms of probiotics make me overly happy to the point that it is detrimental to my life. Recently I started taking these probiotics - seed.com - and find them reasonably balanced. You will see improved mood and sleep for a few days but then not much - not sure why it doesn't persist. I am still continuing with these because they seem to be helping with other digestive issues. I also notice way more mood improvement when eating Sauerkraut so try to eat a couple of tablespoons of it everyday. I have experimented enough with microbiome related stuff that I am fully convinced they play a major role in ones health (including mood and energy). That said, there is way more to it than simply the species of bacteria. Where those bacteria are located in the gut (small or large intestine or colon), what other species are there, your genetics, your diet, lifestyle, your psyche, etc., all play a part in their functioning. I wish there was a more "big-data" approach to figuring out things than researching one species at a time.
Brave is one of my favorite new software of 2020. I love how fast it loads web pages and removes ads. More importantly it’s a huge step forward in terms of fixing web. I am very excited about this Ipfs support. If they also integrate openbazaar with some decentralized currency , that would be incredible!
nit - can you please fix the icon? The color and icon undersell Brave by a huge margin.
They should have done this when there were far fewer cases. It was really surprising to hear that you don’t need any tests or quarantining when you travel from other countries. Better late than never, I guess.
I never had problems with exercise motivation so I don’t need someone to keep me accountable but I absolutely dread pushing myself and lifting more weight. Fitness apps with pretty graphs help a bit but what helps me the most is to have some goals like “squat X lbs by the end of year”. It seems to help so far!
Your suggestion about making exercise a habit is spot on. Just do it as a routine without even thinking and enjoy the rewards to do important things.
It seems like India is 9 times the size of Japan and 10 times the population. It's high but its not unmanageably high for a fertile piece of land with good weather for significant part of the year.
All your arguments about political system incapable of fixing problems quickly still stand though.
They can use this technology to generate a model to fit a particular user profile. Filter bubbles are going to get even better! Or maybe they can ask user to upload his photo and feed that as a prior to the model so it can generate visuals of that person wearing different dresses. That would be cool!
What makes you think that a computer that can generate music cannot also generate a background for the "creator" of that music? It can give you all the stories that touch our hearts even more so than we can imagine.
Did you ever imagine if both ends of the spectrum are true? Maybe there is a talent shortage and maybe there are companies trying to get cheap labor from abroad. We are a reasonable sized company trying to recruit people with advanced skills. Finding talent that includes large number of H1B's is hard on its own. Forget finding talent that excludes 95% of the world (aka H1B's). Most of the candidates I get to interview are usually immigrants. Why? I don't know. We have zero motivation to hire immigrants specifically. We pay way higher than an average company and are more interested in talented candidates than saving money. It's just that immigrants are the ones with the skills that we need.
Also, the notion that H1b's are cheap is not always true. With the added costs of filing H1b visa and green card, the true costs are much higher, especially in a cutting edge industry.
Have you tried helminthic therapy by any chance? Also would you care to share your current treatment protocol? I am in a similar position with lots of dietary allergies and I am considering doing helminthic therapy because it seems to have a lot of success stories.
The good news is that you can configure all the data to be copied over to Azure Search on a regular basis and then use search capabilities provided by Azure Search. This may sound like a complicated thing to do but the functionality provided by Azure makes it ridiculously easy to configure something like this.
It does support search through SQL like queries. You can use existing functions or implement new ones in Javascript. If you want free text search, you would be disappointed, but otherwise it is pretty decent.
