Built by healthcare operators for healthcare operators, Plenful is driven by a deep understanding of the challenges facing today’s care teams. We’re passionate about equipping healthcare workers with world-class tools that deliver real, measurable impact, and we’re proud to serve leading healthcare organizations across the country.

We are hiring an exceptional Senior Machine Learning Backend Engineer to lead the integration of advanced ML solutions into our platform.

  • Develop and optimizedata pipelinesfor training, inference, and real-time decision-making.
  • Implement best practices forCI / CD, testing (Pytest), and version control (Git) to ensure reliable ML feature deployment.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across ML services, APIs, and infrastructure.
  • Document architectural decisions, ML workflows, and compliance / security practices.
  • Provide technical leadership—mentoring engineers, reviewing code, and championing backend + ML integration best practices.

What we’re looking for

  • 3+ years of professional backend development experience, with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field.
  • Expertise inPythonfor backend services and ML integration.
  • Strong applied ML experience in a SaaS context—NLP pipelines, LLM fine-tuning / evaluation, or healthcare ML applications.
  • Familiarity with ML frameworks such asPyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, or Hugging Face Transformers.
  • Hands-on experience withcloud infrastructure (AWS : S3, Lambda, ECS, SQS, CloudWatch).
  • Proficiency inrelational databases (PostgreSQL)and designing schemas to support ML applications.
  • Experience deploying ML models intoproduction systems, not just research or prototyping.
  • Solid understanding ofCI / CD pipelines, Git workflows, and automated testingfor ML / Backend systems.
  • Proven track record ofowning projects end-to-endin a fast-pacedstartup or B2B SaaSenvironment.
  • Experience in regulated industries (healthcare, HIPAA compliance) preferred.
