Head of AI

Were seeking a Head of AI to lead research and engineering for multimodal foundation models and reasoning‑centric systems-from prototyping to reliable, secure, production deployment. The Head of AI will manage a group of deep learning researchers, computational biologists, immunologists and engineers and partner closely with product leaders and company leadership to convert cutting‑edge methods into high‑impact, mission‑critical capabilities.
Location: Ramat Gan, Israel (hybrid model)
What will you do?
Group Leadership & Growth:
Lead, mentor, and develop deep learning researchers, computational biologists, and machine learning engineers; set a high bar for scientific rigor, code quality, and delivery.
Establish clear ownership, role definitions, and growth paths; nurture a collaborative, low‑ego culture.
Technical Strategy & Delivery:
Own the AI roadmap and architecture; guide model design, evaluation, and productionization (training, serving, observability, safety).
Build scalable pipelines for transformers, multimodal fusion, and reasoning/agent frameworks; champion reproducibility, CI/CD for models, and cost‑efficient GPU/TPU utilization.
Research Integration & Innovation:
Stay current with the literature; run journal clubs and technical deep dives.
Evaluate, pilot, and integrate state‑of‑the‑art methods (advanced transformers, retrieval and tool‑use agents, causal/biological reasoning) into robust systems.
Cross‑Functional Collaboration:
Translate biological and clinical questions into tractable AI projects with measurable impact.
Communicate complex trade‑offs to peers and executives; align plans, risks, and milestones across functions.
Mission & Impact:
Prioritize initiatives that advance patient outcomes and create cumulative platform value.
Balance speed with scientific integrity, security, and compliance.
