Applied Machine Learning Intern information

What is the difference between Applied Machine Learning Intern vs Data Science Intern?

AspectApplied Machine Learning InternData Science Intern
Required SkillsMachine learning algorithms, programming (Python, R), data analysisStatistical analysis, data visualization, programming (Python, R)
Work EnvironmentDeveloping ML models, experimenting with algorithms, deploying modelsData cleaning, analysis, reporting insights
Industry UsageTech companies, AI startups, research labsBusiness analytics, market research, finance

Applied Machine Learning Interns focus on developing and deploying machine learning models, requiring knowledge of algorithms and programming. Data Science Interns typically handle data analysis, visualization, and reporting. While both roles involve data skills, applied ML interns work more on model implementation, whereas data science interns focus on insights and data interpretation.

Job description

Applied Machine Learning Engineer

Chicago, IL; Remote

How You'll Make an Impact

As an Applied Machine Learning Engineer, you will collaborate with architects, data scientists, agentic AI developers, platform engineers, and the product team to build advanced AI and ML capabilities into our platform. Your work will drive innovation in generative AI and beyond, integrating and customizing a wide range of machine learning techniques to solve complex problems in healthcare. By developing next-generation AI agents, algorithms, and computation engines, you will help Strata strengthen its market leadership, improve operational efficiency, and support healthcare providers in delivering high-quality care while maintaining financial health.

A Day in the Life

  • Read and translate the latest research (e.g., arXiv papers) into production-ready solutions in Python.
  • Prototype and iterate on machine learning models, focusing on areas such as regression, causal inference, optimization, and vector embeddings.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to embed ML and AI capabilities directly into our software platform.
  • Partner with data scientists to design experiments and apply statistical concepts to real-world data.
  • Optimize, test, and scale ML models to support mission-critical healthcare analytics.

Our Technology Stack

  • Languages & Libraries: Python, PyTorch, NumPy, Pandas, Polars, PyMC

  • Infrastructure: AWS, Snowflake, Docker, GitHub

  • Techniques & Tools:

    • Regression (with and without Bayesian priors)

    • Vector embeddings, similarity, clustering

    • Core statistics and distributions for EDA

    • Optimization methods (multi-armed bandit, mixed integer programming)

    • Causal inference and probabilistic modeling

What We're Looking For

  • Strong experience implementing ML models in Python.

  • Familiarity with regression, embeddings, causal inference, and optimization techniques.

  • Experience applying statistical methods to exploratory data analysis.

  • Comfort working with modern ML libraries and frameworks.

Bonus points if you have worked with:

  • NLP tasks (LLMs, spaCy, neural networks).

  • Recommender systems, latent factors, matrix factorization.

  • Graph algorithms.

  • Claude Code, Docker, and GitHub.

Estimated Salary Range: $117,000-150,000

Actual salary will be determined based on factors including, but not limited to, skill set and level of experience. This salary range is a good faith estimate of base pay. Strata also provides discretionary variable pay programs based on role. In addition, Strata provides a comprehensive benefits package including retirement benefits, health and welfare benefits, paid time off, parental leave, life and accident insurance, and other voluntary and well-being benefits.
