From Sprinter Health's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly to their homes.
Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can’t get to a doctor’s office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over
$300B in avoidable costs every year.
By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last-mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we’ve supported more than
2 million patients across 22 states, completed 130,000+ in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS
. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy multi-year runway.
We’re looking for an AI Research Scientist to advance the methodological frontier of AI in healthcare. This role is ideal for someone who has demonstrated strong research taste, deep technical foundations, and the ability to turn open-ended problems into rigorous scientific contributions.
You will develop and own a research agenda aligned with Sprinter’s company strategy. Your work may include novel architectures, new training or evaluation techniques, long-horizon research bets, peer-reviewed validation studies, patents, and methods that ultimately graduate into production systems.
The ideal candidate is deeply technical, scientifically rigorous, and excited to collaborate closely with clinicians, product leaders, and applied AI teams. You understand that healthcare validation standards are higher than benchmark culture alone, and you are energized by the opportunity to produce research that is both scientifically meaningful and practically impactful.
Hybrid & Office Experience
We operate on a hybrid schedule, working from the office Monday through Thursday, with Fridays designated as work-from-anywhere days.
We care deeply about work-life balance and are happy to provide flexibility when life happens. We ask that employees be in the office Monday through Thursday to collaborate with their teams while maintaining flexibility where it matters most.
Lunch is provided every day, and the entire team takes an hour to eat together. It's one of the ways we stay connected outside of meetings. You'll usually find us playing a board game before getting back to work.
First-author publications at top technical venues such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, or related conferences.
Publications in leading clinical AI or healthcare venues such as Nature Medicine, NEJM AI, npj Digital Medicine, CHIL, MLHC, or similar.
Experience in academia, industry research labs, or research-heavy teams at AI-native healthcare companies.
Experience collaborating with clinicians, clinical researchers, or healthcare operators.
Familiarity with IRB processes, clinical data governance, or healthcare model validation.
Dual literacy across machine learning and clinical collaboration.
We aim to complete the interview process between 2–3 weeks. It will usually consist of:
