  • Stay ahead of the curve on advances in Generative AI, NLP, and healthcare AI research.
  • Propose and prototype innovative techniques, contributing to Oracle's IP through publications, patents, or internal frameworks.
  • Identify emerging opportunities to apply AI in ways that advance clinical outcomes and operational excellence across healthcare and life sciences.
  • What You'll Bring

    Education

  • PhD in Computer Science, NLP, Machine Learning, or a related field; OR Master's degree with 6+ years of relevant applied AI / ML experience, including leadership of complex modeling efforts.
  • Experience
