About Nabla

We are a team of entrepreneurs, clinicians and engineers committed to bringing back joy to the practice of medicine.

Together with a community of clinician innovators, we’ve harnessed the best of machine learning science to develop Nabla: the leading AI assistant that’s restoring the human connection at the heart of healthcare. By streamlining clinical documentation, Nabla is helping clinicians focus on what matters most - patient care. Today, over 85,000 clinicians across 130+ healthcare organizations trust Nabla to support how they deliver care every day.

We’re at the start of an ambitious journey: Ambient listening, dictation, coding, and command capabilities are all converging into a proactive assistant that intuitively streamlines clinical and financial workflows.

Backed by a recent $70M Series C, we’re hiring to build the next generation of clinical AI and improve the lives of clinicians and patients everywhere.

This is a great time to join us!

The best of AI at the service of healthcare

Nabla’s phenomenal traction is the result of 3 years of diligent product development.

Led by former Meta AI Research engineers, our team has consistently anticipated how AI can revolutionize healthcare delivery. Our Machine Learning team continually leverages the latest advancements to unlock AI’s full potential in healthcare.

Yann LeCun, Meta’s Chief AI Scientist and Turing award winner, is an advisor to Nabla.

Engineering at Nabla

At Nabla, product development is led jointly by Engineering and Product, and organized into cross-functional squads, each focused on a specific product area. Squads bring together product managers, designers, engineers of different profiles, and domain experts, and operate with a high level of ownership.
In this role, you’ll join Engineering and collaborate across squads, contributing ML expertise wherever it has the most impact.

Your role

Now that Nabla is entering a new phase of growth and scale, we’re looking for an exceptional Staff Machine Learning Engineer to work across multiple squads, partnering with tech leads, product managers, and engineers to shape the long-term direction of our AI systems, support ML-driven features, guide technical decisions, and ensure consistency and quality across our ML stack.

What you'll do

• Lead and contribute hands-on to complex ML initiatives, including model design, fine-tuning and evaluation, context engineering for agents, as well as production integration, monitoring, and reliability.

• As part of Nabla’s agentic platform strategy, build the ML roadmap to support progressively more configurable and autonomous workflows in the product.

• Drive ML experimentation and evaluation frameworks, and guide decisions on approach, model and tooling, based on measurable impact.

• Define and own data strategies for training and evaluation, including dataset quality, coverage, versioning, and data acquisition or annotation when needed.

• Influence ML infrastructure and hardware decisions to ensure training and inference workloads are scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient.

• Raise the ML bar across the organization through mentorship, design reviews, and survey of relevant literature and technology, and ensure ML efforts remain aligned with product and business priorities.

Your DNA

• You have deep, hands-on experience with transformer-based models and LLMs in production, and are comfortable choosing between prompt engineering, fine-tuning, retrieval-based approaches, or combinations of these, depending on the problem.

• You combine strong machine learning expertise with solid software engineering practices, and care about building reliable, maintainable, and testable systems that operate at scale.

• You have a strong data-centric mindset and experience defining data strategies for ML training and evaluation, including quality, coverage, versioning, acquisition and annotation workflows.

• You’re comfortable making ML infrastructure decisions, and have enough familiarity with cloud-based ML systems and hardware to reason about performance, scalability, and cost.

• You are able to balance ambition with pragmatism: you enjoy exploring new ideas and techniques, but you focus on delivering measurable impact rather than chasing novelty.

• You’re comfortable influencing technical direction through collaboration and mentorship, and enjoy raising the ML bar across teams rather than working in isolation.

• You have a strong product mindset and can connect ML decisions to user and business outcomes.

• Full professional fluency in French and English (oral and written) is required; experience beyond LLMs (e.g. classical ML, optimization) is a plus.

Where you'll be based

Our offices are based in Paris 3e (Arts & Métiers).
Remote policy: 1-2 days a week (with some flexibility). Possibility of working remotely 1-2 weeks once a year.

Benefits

Just like we’re dedicated to supporting doctors’ well-being, ensuring yours is a top priority. We firmly believe that by prioritizing your well-being, we support you to excel in your work.

Here are the benefits you get when joining Nabla:

• Stock ownership

• 100% healthcare coverage

• Meal vouchers

• Public transportation costs covered at 50%

• Exercise class during the workday: Yoga, running, pilates, HIIT

• Unlimited budget for book purchases, so you can continue to learn about ML / Healthcare

• Culture of trust & accountability — your output matters more than your clock-in time

Life at Nabla

When you become a part of our company, you join a team of excellence-driven, curious, and genuinely kind individuals. Together, we're committed to making clinicians' lives easier and improving healthcare experiences for everyone. We believe in a world where clinicians can focus on what they were trained to do - caring for their patients, and where no patient feels their visit was rushed.

We come to work excited to leverage AI to do more for clinicians. We’re obsessed with our users’ satisfaction and we actively seek out opportunities to engage one-on-one with clinicians to understand how Nabla can better help. We consistently look for ways to improve and do not shy away from doing the work to excel. Whether it’s a feature our users asked for, or a new article for our blog, we prioritize collaboration to deliver exceptional outcomes.

We love having fun as much as we love work. Our #nablabla channel is as active as our #feature-show-off channel, we exercise during the work day at least 3 times a week (yoga, running, pilates, or HIIT, your choice!), enjoy regular off-sites to gather the team, and travel to see each other in places like NY, Paris, San Francisco, and many other vibrant cities. Oh, and we’re constantly snacking on chocolate or nuts!

If this sounds like an environment you’ll thrive in, we look forward to reading your application!
