Job Title: Head of Artificial Intelligence

Company: Remidio Innovative Solutions Pvt. Ltd.

Location: Peenya, Bangalore (Full-time, Work from Office)

Reporting to: Chief Medical Officer

Experience Level: 10+ years (8+ years strongly preferred)

Education: Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Mathematics, or a closely related field

Remidio is a fast-growing, global medtech innovator on a mission to prevent blindness through accessible, high-quality eye care. Our portable, FDA-cleared and CE-marked retinal imaging devices — powered by offline/edge AI — have already screened over 16 million patients across 55+ countries. We are revolutionizing population-scale screening for diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), glaucoma, AMD, and other blinding conditions by delivering intelligent, point-of-care diagnostics that are simple, affordable, and inclusive.

We are seeking a visionary, hands-on Head of Artificial Intelligence to own and accelerate our AI strategy, delivering clinically validated, regulatorily compliant innovations that transform global eye health and earn deep physician trust.

As Head of Artificial Intelligence, you will be the strategic and technical leader for Remidio’s entire AI function. You will have end-to-end ownership of the AI vision, multi-year roadmap, model development, clinical validation, regulatory compliance, and worldwide scalability.

This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role requiring deep expertise in medical computer vision, tight collaboration with clinical, regulatory, product, engineering, and founder teams, and the ability to ship production-grade AI that meets the highest global healthcare standards (FDA, CE, EU AI Act, etc.).

Your leadership will directly shape the future of intelligent ophthalmic diagnostics and help Remidio reach millions more patients in underserved communities around the world.

• Define and own Remidio’s long-term AI vision, multi-year roadmap, and technical strategy — aligned with clinical priorities, product goals, and business growth

• Identify and integrate cutting-edge AI advancements (foundation models, multimodal AI, edge-optimized inference, etc.) into our portable retinal imaging ecosystem

• Stay ahead of industry trends and convert emerging technologies into compliant, scalable, market-leading features

• Lead the full AI/ML lifecycle: data strategy & acquisition, model design, training, validation, deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management

• Build and advance state-of-the-art computer vision models (CNNs, Vision Transformers, GANs, self-supervised learning, segmentation, etc.) optimized for edge/offline use in medical devices

• Drive production deployments in partnership with software engineering (web, desktop, mobile, cloud)

• Own the AI regulatory strategy and serve as the primary AI subject-matter expert for FDA, CE, and other global submissions/audits

• Ensure complete traceability, design controls, post-market surveillance, model drift management, and compliance with FDA Good Machine Learning Practice, EU AI Act (high-risk systems), ISO 13485, IEC 62304, and ISO 27001

• Lead preparation of robust technical documentation and performance evidence for successful regulatory approvals

• Partner closely with clinical teams to design/execute AI validation studies, clinical performance evaluations, and real-world evidence generation

• Guide data acquisition strategies to build diverse, high-quality, ethically sourced datasets for training, testing, and validation

• Contribute to peer-reviewed publications, white papers, and scientific presentations

• Recruit, mentor, and grow a world-class AI/ML engineering team (expand capability from current size to best-in-class)

• Cultivate a culture of scientific excellence, rapid iteration, accountability, and unwavering focus on patient impact

• Proactively identify patentable innovations and drive the patent filing process

• Strengthen Remidio’s external credibility through publications, conference speaking, and collaborations with academia, clinicians, and industry leaders

• Proven track record in healthcare/medtech AI (ophthalmology, medical imaging, or diagnostics strongly preferred)

• Deep expertise in Computer Vision for medical applications (mastery of CNNs, Vision Transformers, GANs, segmentation, classification, explainable AI)

• Hands-on proficiency: Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, Pandas, scikit-learn, Azure ML (strongly preferred), Docker, REST APIs

• Demonstrated success deploying AI in regulated medical devices (FDA 510(k), CE marking experience required)

• Strong knowledge of FDA Good ML Practices, EU AI Act (high-risk AI requirements), data privacy (GDPR/HIPAA), and quality standards (ISO 13485, IEC 62304)

• Track record of patents, peer-reviewed publications, or technical leadership in AI/healthcare

• Experience leading cross-functional teams in a fast-paced, founder-driven organization

• Extreme ownership — full accountability for outcomes, risks, and results

• Bias for action in ambiguous, high-pressure situations; ability to juggle multiple complex initiatives without dropping quality

• Outstanding influence without authority — build strong alignment across clinical, regulatory, engineering, and executive stakeholders

• Rapid, independent learner who masters new domains and technologies quickly

• Comfortable thriving in a high-expectation, direct-feedback, senior-leadership environment

• Genuine passion for leveraging AI to prevent blindness and advance health equity globally

If you are a proven AI leader who blends world-class technical depth, clinical/regulatory acumen, and the drive to create meaningful global impact — we want to hear from you.

Join Remidio and help build the future of intelligent, accessible eye care that reaches every corner of the world.
