We harness data, AI, and digital twins to enable faster, more robust studies that bring life-saving treatments to patients faster. This mission drives everything we do as we partner with biopharmaceutical companies to redesign how clinical trials are planned, run, and analyzed.\nWe are defining the future of clinical development with unmatched scientific credibility, replacing uncertainty with AI-powered precision so decisions are clearer and trials are stronger. We don’t just disrupt the pharmaceutical industry, we create lasting change.\nWe believe AI will define the future of medicine, and we are committed to building that future responsibly, rigorously, and in close collaboration with our partners in clinical development.\nAbout Our Team\nWe come from a variety of backgrounds ranging from machine learning to marketing-but regardless of where we come from, Unlearners share some common traits:\nUnlearners are ambitious; we aren’t intimidated by big, challenging goals.\n\nUnlearners are disciplined experimenters; we break down our big goals into smaller chunks and meet as often as necessary to track our velocity and iterate quickly.\n\nUnlearners are gritty; we never give up, setbacks just make us try harder.\n\nUnlearners are receptive to new ideas; in fact, we hate being stuck with the status quo\n\nUnlearners are storytellers; sharing information with each other and with the world is super important, too important to be boring. And, last but not least,\n\nUnlearners are team-oriented; we put the mission first, the company second, the team third, and individuals last.\n\nHeadquartered in San Francisco, Unlearn was founded in 2017 by a team of world-class machine learning scientists. We have raised venture capital from top tier investors such as Altimeter, Insight Partners, Radical Ventures, 8VC, DCVC, and DCVC Bio, and completed our $50 million Series C in January 2024.\nIf our purpose and culture resonate with you, we invite you to apply.\nThe Role\nClinical Data Scientists at Unlearn build world-class data products that underpin advances in machine learning for clinical research. Working in close collaboration with machine learning scientists, engineers, clinical scientists, and product partners, they transform complex clinical data into high-quality, well-understood datasets tailored for modeling and other downstream applications. The role spans multiple disease areas and data sources, requiring strong software practices, careful data curation, and the ability to quickly develop clinical domain expertise. In addition to internal development, Clinical Data Scientists often work in forward-deployed settings, partnering directly with clients to ensure Unlearn’s solutions are appropriately tailored to real-world study designs.\nResponsibilities\nTransform clinical trial, observational, and electronic health record data into high-quality, well-structured datasets.\n\nAnalyze longitudinal clinical datasets, developing a strong understanding of outcome measures, biomarkers, and other variables commonly used in clinical research across multiple disease areas.\n\nCollaborate closely with cross-functional teams of data scientists, machine learning scientists, engineers, and clinicians to design, build, and maintain robust data products grounded in sound data organization, domain knowledge, and careful analysis.\n\nCommunicate technical findings, data characteristics, and limitations clearly and effectively to both internal partners and external collaborators, including in forward-deployed, client-facing settings.\n\nRequirements\nBS or advanced degree in Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Psychology, Public Health, or related discipline.\n\n2+ years of experience wrangling data from disparate sources, data cleaning, and harmonizing datasets for analysis.\n\nExperience working with complex or nuanced datasets.\n\nFluency in Python and its essential data science tools (numpy, pandas).\n\nDemonstrated experience in collaborative software development.\n\nExperience with clinical datasets in applied machine learning applications.\n\nExperience working in multidisciplinary teams that include scientists, engineers, and product management.\n\nNice to Haves\nPrior experience in forward-deployed, client-facing settings.\n\nExperience in clinical/healthcare data.\n\nBenefits & Perks\nThe following benefits and perks are for full time roles only. \nMeaningful equity participation\n\n100% company-covered medical, dental, & vision insurance plans\n\n401k plan with matching\n\nFlexible PTO plus company holidays\n\nAnnual company-wide break December 24 through January 1\n\nCommuter benefits\n\nPaid Parental Leave\n\nUnlearn is an equal opportunity employer.\nAt Unlearn, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, because inclusion and diversity are essential to achieving our mission. If you’re excited about this role, and your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply nevertheless.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5082,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Equity","Parental leave","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Clinical Trial Services (CRO)","Drug Discovery AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-07-22T20:15:14Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 5","filings_12m":5,"filings_prev_12m":3,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":157500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":2}],"liveness":{"score":10,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.371,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":86,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":160000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/unlearn-clinical-data-scientist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/unlearn-clinical-data-scientist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T00:26:11Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":815,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":22658},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=22658"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Funlearn-clinical-data-scientist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Funlearn-clinical-data-scientist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Funlearn-clinical-data-scientist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/unlearn-clinical-data-scientist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Funlearn-clinical-data-scientist"}]}
