Software Engineer, Medical AI

Snapshot

Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.

Our special interdisciplinary team combines the best techniques from deep learning, reinforcement learning and systems neuroscience to build general-purpose learning algorithms and apply these to medicine and healthcare. We have already made a number of high profile breakthroughs towards building artificial general intelligence for medicine, and we have all the ingredients in place to make further significant progress over the coming years to real world impact

About Us

We’re part of a broader dedicated scientific community, committed to “solving intelligence” and ensuring our technology is used for widespread public benefit and advancing medicine and healthcare for all. 

We’ve built a supportive and inclusive environment where collaboration is encouraged and learning is shared freely. We don’t set limits based on what others think is possible or impossible. We drive ourselves and inspire each other to push boundaries and achieve ambitious goals.

The Role

Accelerate development and deployment of multimodal and multi-agent conversational AI systems. You’ll work with a group of research scientists and engineers on a mission-driven team with high agency in a fast-paced environment. Together, you will apply ML and other computational techniques to a wide range of challenging medical problems.

Collaborate with researchers and engineers to build scalable infrastructure for research deployments of medical AI systems, respecting all aspects of domain-specific compliance.

Key responsibilities:

• Design, develop and implement high-performance systems for AI in medicine and health or other high-compliance requirement safety-critical systems
• Lead full-stack implementation, from front-end, back-end, to the agentic AI system, to deliver high quality products utilizing frontier multimodal language models and other related technology
• Apply your software engineering expertise to produce high quality, clean, generalisable/reusable and scalable code and infrastructure components to tackle meaningful problems in medical AI
• Collaborating with research scientists and research engineers in the team to ensure system safety and reliability and be highly collaborative, striving to cultivate a culture of continuous development and advancement.
• Implement tools, libraries and frameworks, and build on existing systems, to speed up and enable new research and deployments.
• Employ cutting-edge technology and techniques to contribute to solving some of the hardest problems.
• Incorporate your passion for advancing human health and any previous knowledge or academic experience to join a team of hardworking individuals who openly collaborate with one another.

About You

Software Engineers come from a diverse set of backgrounds, sometimes with degrees in Computer Science and sometimes with extensive experience with real problems, or both. 

In order to set you up for success as a Software Engineer at Google DeepMind,  we look for the following skills and experience:

• Experience developing and deploying an end-to-end LLM-powered system, and/or multi-agent and multimodal models including audio and video 
• Dedicated software engineer with 2+ years of experience writing maintainable, high-quality backend or fullstack code for scalable systems
• Experience with real-time audio-video streaming software and multi-agent systems
• Hands on experience with prompt engineering, multi-agent orchestration and/or data-pipeline and evaluation methodologies for large language models
• Proven ability to work independently as a product-driven engineer, solving for complex product specifications with minimal supervision

In addition, the following would be an advantage: 

• Experience with Google internal and Google Cloud tech stack
• Experience optimising large-scale training and fine-tuning large models.
• Proven experience in Python, C++, and interoperability between the two.
• Experience contributing your skills in scientific research.
• Experience with compliant enterprise product development and data management in production.

At Google DeepMind, we value diversity of experience, knowledge, backgrounds and perspectives and harness these qualities to create extraordinary impact. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership status, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, or related condition (including breastfeeding) or any other basis as protected by applicable law.
