Medical Device AI/ML Engineer

About Us 

Innolitics LLC is a remote-first company specializing in medical device software development and FDA regulatory consulting. Since 2012, we’ve partnered with medical device companies to bring innovative technologies to market. Our team of engineers, consultants, and domain experts works at the intersection of software engineering and regulatory compliance to deliver high-quality solutions.

Agentic AI tools like Claude Code and Codex are changing the day-to-day experience of software engineering. We see this as an opportunity, not a threat. We are a growing, collaborative team that is actively learning how to use these tools to produce robust, traceable, high-quality systems where correctness, safety, and documentation matter.

As an engineer here, you will not only write production code and develop new machine learning models, but also develop expertise in medical device regulations, quality systems, verification and validation, and the realities of FDA-facing software.

If you’re excited by the intersection of technology, medicine, and regulation—and enjoy organizing and clarifying complex information—you’ll feel at home here.

About the Role 

We’re hiring an experienced AI/ML engineer to join our tight-knit team of medical device developers. At Innolitics, you will play a cross-functional role in both software development and regulatory projects. You will help develop new medical device software, including building out machine learning pipelines, training new models, and helping clients properly document and track their training, testing, and validation datasets. Additionally, you will help clients with existing software devices who need to remediate or entirely build out their technical design history file, leveraging deep technical expertise and client communication skills to produce a thorough, accurate representation of the software for regulatory submission— in collaboration with our team of regulatory experts.

This is a fully remote position with travel 2-3 times a year to clients and our annual company retreat.

Your Responsibilities Will Include 

* Software and AI/ML Model Development: You’ll participate in the design and development of new medical device software. You'll write clean, efficient code and ensure it meets both functional requirements and regulatory standards. Your work will involve constructing software systems, drafting software unit and system tests, and implementing robust testing methodologies. You will also participate in the design, training, and validation of new machine learning models.

* Regulatory Compliance and Documentation: You’ll collaborate with regulatory professionals to write technical documents, such as software requirements specifications, software risk assessments, and software design specifications, in language that the FDA understands. You'll ensure that all software documentation complies with FDA guidance.

* System Understanding: You’ll engage in detailed information gathering by interviewing client engineers, reviewing technical documents, and examining source code. You'll develop a comprehensive understanding of our client’s medical device systems and help validate that they’re safe and document their functioning.

* Configuration and Lifecycle Management: You’ll advise clients on best practices for configuration management, AI/ML data controls, and other software development processes required by the FDA. You’ll work closely with engineering teams to implement these processes efficiently.

* Project Collaboration: You’ll communicate effectively with both software engineers and regulatory professionals, acting as a bridge between technical and compliance teams. You’ll also be involved in planning project timelines, creating detailed meeting agendas, and keeping careful notes to ensure that all regulatory and development milestones are met.

* Client communication: You’ll interact directly with clients, communicating highly technical information in a way that is accessible and understandable. You will be a key part of building a trusting, productive, and collaborative relationship between us and our clients.

At Innolitics, you’ll be part of a team that is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in medical device software. Your work will not only meet regulatory standards, but also make a real difference in patient care.
