About Truveta  Truveta provides unprecedented real-world data and real-time intelligence, powered by a dataset built with and owned by US health systems united in a mission of Saving Lives with Data. Together, we power breakthrough medical discoveries, accelerate regulatory-grade evidence, and improve patient care. Today, Truveta enables research on more than 130 million de-identified patients across the US.    Achieving Truveta’s ambitious mission requires an incredible team of talented and inspired people with a special combination of health, software and big data experience who share our <a href="https://www.truveta.com/careers/">company values</a>.   The Role  We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to explore and develop novel applications of cutting-edge AI/ML technologies on large-scale real-world clinical data.  This role is designed for recent PhD graduates who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of machine learning in healthcare. You will work at the intersection of machine learning, clinical data, and biomedical science, identifying new opportunities where modern AI can unlock insights that were previously out of reach.  A key expectation is not just execution—but imagination: the ability to envision and prototype entirely new ways to use rich patient data to solve meaningful healthcare problems.  What You’ll Do<span
