As a thought leader in your field, you will work closely with other R&D stakeholders to design novel model architectures, develop evaluation pipelines, build concept prototypes, and present your work to peers inside and outside the organization.

Where you come in:

• You help identify long-term research goals as well as intermediate milestones for AI models and applications.
• You execute research that pushes forward the state of the art in AI domains such as predictive health outcomes, large language models (LLMs), and Generative AI.
• You directly contribute to experiments training AI models, including experimental design, writing reusable code, running evaluations, and preparing results for broader circulation.
• You publish research in top tier conferences and journals in the diabetes, health sensing, and technology communities.
• You prioritize research that can support Dexcom’s product development and data strategy.
• You implement new models, tools, and processes used by Dexcom’s core data products team, supporting commercial data product development.
• You coordinate and collaborate with cross-functional teams – including stakeholders from R&D, Commercial, Product, Legal, and Regulatory – to ensure that our research program is aligned with company strategy and meets the highest safety standards.
• You contribute to the evaluation and improvement of the safety of our models and systems, identifying areas of risk and proposing mitigation strategies.

What makes you successful:

• Your track record brainstorming new ideas or improving upon existing ideas in machine learning and AI – including designing and executing experiments – demonstrated by accomplishments such as first author publications or projects.
• You are an adept independent researcher, results-driven, and motivated to solve hard technical challenges including choosing impactful research problems and autonomously carrying out long-running projects.
• Your experience in creating high-performance implementations of deep learning algorithms, including implementing machine learning and statistical inference algorithms in Pytorch, Tensorflow, etc.
• You love being on the cutting edge of machine learning and AI research and have a passion for Dexcom’s mission and health sensing applications.
• You have excellent written and verbal communications skills, and an aptitude for leveraging data visualization software and techniques to tell compelling stories using data. 

What you’ll get:

• A front row seat to life changing CGM technology. Learn about our brave #dexcomwarriors community.
• A full and comprehensive benefits program.
• Growth opportunities on a global scale.
• Access to career development through in-house learning programs and/or qualified tuition reimbursement.
