Kinetic Systems is an applied research lab building data infrastructure for the autonomous hospital.

We spun out of the Stanford PhD program in 2025 and are backed by General Catalyst. Our mission is to advance the capabilities of frontier models for solving clinically and economically meaningful healthcare tasks.

The Role

As a Clinical AI Research Scientist, you’ll help drive our research agenda towards advancing AI model capabilities on real-world healthcare tasks. You'll help build novel datasets, environments, and benchmarks to identify capability gaps in current models, publish academic papers, and post-train models to push the SOTA while staying grounded to the demonstrated needs of our healthcare partners.

Note: This is a full-time role, required to be in-person in SF.

What You’ll Do

• Develop novel evals, RL environments, and benchmarks to reflect real-world healthcare workflows

• Provide domain expertise and medical knowledge to help shape our research directions and deliverables

• Write and publish papers in academic conferences
