## About the role
We're building the first precision mental wellness platform, making thought patterns, limiting beliefs, and emotional regulation trackable, predictive, and transformable.
## The opportunity
You'll be an AI engineer on a platform that:
- Maps cognitive patterns through sentiment and voice analysis, detecting impostor syndrome, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and 30+ other patterns before they spiral
- Predicts pattern activation 30-60 minutes in advance by fusing wearable data (HRV, sleep, movement) with voice markers and calendar context
- Delivers precision interventions through conversational AI that adapts to each user's cognitive profile, learning style, and emotional capacity
- Creates "Cognitive Twins", digital models that simulate users' thought patterns and predict long-term trajectories
## What you'll build
### Year 1: Pattern Recognition & Prediction Engine
- Voice-based pattern detection: Build NLP models that identify cognitive distortions (catastrophizing, black-and-white thinking, personalization) from natural speech
- Predictive analytics (v1.0): Create ML models that predict pattern activation using voice markers + wearable data + calendar context with 60%+ accuracy
- Cognitive Twin architecture: Design the digital twin system that models users' belief structures, triggers, and behavioral responses
- Real-time intervention optimization: A/B test which interventions work for which cognitive profiles, building a continuously learning system
### Year 2: Multimodal AI & Physiological Integration
- Wearable data fusion: Integrate Oura, Apple Watch, Whoop data to correlate HRV, sleep, movement with pattern intensity
- Emotion detection: Build models that detect emotional state from voice tone, pace, linguistic markers
- Longitudinal trajectory modeling: Predict 6-month, 12-month outcomes based on current patterns (depression risk, burnout probability)
- Improve prediction accuracy: 60% → 75% → 85% through continuous model refinement
## What you'll own
- ML model development: Design, train, and deploy models for pattern recognition, prediction, and intervention optimization
- Production ML infrastructure: Build reliable, scalable systems for real-time inference (voice AI, predictive analytics, recommendation engines)
- Data pipelines: Architect ETL for voice transcripts, wearable data, user interactions, clinical outcomes
- Model monitoring & iteration: Track model performance, identify drift, implement continuous improvements
- Cross-functional collaboration: Work with clinical team (Dr. Adrienne Heinz from Stanford NCPTSD), product, and engineering to translate mental health science into production AI
## What you bring
### Must-Haves:
- 5+ years productionizing ML models in real-world applications
- Expert-level Python and ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX—we're framework-agnostic)
- NLP experience: Building models that understand human language (transformers, LLMs, speech recognition)
- Production ML systems: Experience with model serving, monitoring, A/B testing, continuous training
- Ownership mindset: You've taken models from research → production → measurement → iteration
