Senior Data Scientist - Computer Vision

Description du poste

Context

Anatomical pathology examination plays a crucial role for cancer detection, involving the analysis of tissue samples to confirm tumour presence and identify cancer types. This process enables the adaptation of treatments to suit the specific cancer detected. At Primaa, we develop diagnostic support tools in collaboration with pathologists. Our artificial intelligence team creates cutting-edge computer vision algorithms to detect various pathologies and biomarkers.

Histopathological data presents significant technical challenges, and research in this field is still very active, with no predefined solutions. Here are a few examples of these challenges: How can we design and validate robust algorithms despite imprecise and incomplete annotations? How can we develop fast algorithms despite the large size of our images? How can we guarantee that the algorithms perform accurately across various medical centres? To tackle these challenges, the use of off-the-shelf solutions is therefore rarely possible. This is why we are looking for an experienced and creative individual to help our data science team design the most efficient algorithms.

By joining Primaa, you will be part of a passionate and dynamic team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology to improve medical diagnostics. We offer a stimulating work environment where collaboration and innovation are at the heart of our culture.

Your Role as a Senior Data Scientist

As a Senior Data Scientist, your main mission will be to participate in the development, training, testing, and validation of deep learning algorithms and models aimed at assisting pathologists in their daily tasks:

• You will be involved in selecting suitable algorithms and architectures for tasks like classification, localisation, segmentation, and image registration, with an emphasis on continuous improvement.

• You will closely collaborate with our ML Engineer to deliver high-performance, quality code in production.

• You will contribute to the evolution of the MLOps methodologies implemented at Primaa.

• You will continuously monitor bibliographic and technological advancements to ensure Primaa remains at the forefront of innovation.

• You will play a mentoring role within the team, particularly by sharing your knowledge.

On a daily basis, you will interact with:

• Other data scientists on the team to solve technical problems.

• Pathologists involved in various projects to grasp the specific challenges.

• The product team to maximise value proposition.

• Developers to integrate your work into our solution.
