Join the Team Modernizing Medicine
At ModMed, we're not just building software—we're reimagining the healthcare experience. Founded in 2010 by a practicing physician and a successful tech entrepreneur, we took a radically different approach: we hired doctors and taught them how to code. This "for doctors, by doctors" philosophy has allowed us to create an AI-enabled, specialty-specific cloud platform that places patients at the center of care.
A Culture of Excellence
When you join ModMed, you're joining an award-winning team recognized for innovation and employee satisfaction. From our global headquarters in Boca Raton Florida, and extensive employee base in Hyderabad India, we are a team of 4,500+ passionate problem-solvers on a mission to increase medical practice success and improve patient outcomes:
- Consistently ranked as a Top Place to Work 2025
- Globee Business Awards: Gold Globee for "Technology Team of the Year"
- 2025 Black Book Awards: Ranked #1 EHR in 11 Specialties
- Florida Venture Forum: Venture-Backed Company of the Year
We are growing fast, thinking big, and we are just getting started. Ready to modernize medicine with us?

This role is ideal for hands-on researchers with a strong academic background, demonstrated publications, and practical experience translating cutting-edge AI techniques into real-world applications. You will work at the intersection of research and product, collaborating with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and deploy next-generation AI solutions that create measurable business impact.
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct research in large language models, generative AI, reinforcement learning, and AI agents, with a focus on advancing state-of-the-art capabilities.
- Design and implement new algorithms and architectures for LLM fine-tuning, adaptation, and multi-agent collaboration.
- Translate business problems into research-driven AI solutions, working closely with stakeholders to identify opportunities for innovation.
- Build and evaluate models using techniques such as deep learning, natural language processing, generative modeling, reinforcement learning, and multi-modal learning.
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle of research-driven ML projects, from exploration and prototyping to production deployment and monitoring.
- Publish findings in top-tier conferences and journals, contributing to the broader AI research community.
- Collaborate with product managers, data engineers, and software engineers to bring research ideas into scalable, production-grade systems.
- Partner with data engineering teams to ensure robust pipelines and infrastructure for training, experimentation, and deployment.
- For senior/lead level, mentor junior researchers and data scientists, fostering a culture of innovation and scientific rigor.
Qualifications
- PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related quantitative field.
- Proven track record of research excellence demonstrated by publications in top ML/AI conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, CVPR, AAAI, KDD) or journals.
- Experience in machine learning or AI research, with applied experience in LLMs, generative AI, or AI agents.
- Strong proficiency in Python and ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
- Hands-on experience with MLOps tools and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Expertise in at least one of the following areas:
- Large Language Models (pretraining, fine-tuning, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation)
- Autonomous AI Agents and multi-agent systems
- Generative AI (text, vision, speech, or multimodal)
- Reinforcement learning and decision-making systems
- Familiarity with distributed data systems, high-performance computing, and GPU/TPU-based model training.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to present research findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
