Prototype and evaluate new AI capabilities, working with messy real-world data from families and clinicians.

In your first month, deliver two big wins:
Ship a working AI-backed prototype (on top of our conversational, data-driven experience) that demonstrates value to parents or practitioners.

Data Science / ML background to drive product through insight.
Deep expertise in AI tooling (TensorFlow, LangChain, etc.) and habit of staying ahead of model releases.
Experience in navigating early-stage startup dynamics (speed vs. rigour, ambiguity, culture shaping).
Diversity and inclusion
At Indi, we're building a team that reflects the families we serve. Sharing your identity is optional, and we strive for a fair and inclusive hiring process.
