Internship - Data Engineer - ML (M/F)

About the company

At Withings, we develop connected health devices: our connected scales, hybrid watches, blood pressure monitors, sleep monitors, and all the devices in our range are now used by millions of users. Our goal is to enable the prevention, screening, and management of a number of chronic diseases through innovative products and services in order to revolutionize the way people take care of their health.

Your tasks

Within the Machine Learning team, we develop algorithms to extract physiological and medical information for our users, such as SPO2, heart rate, the presence of various pathologies like atrial fibrillation, sleep apnea… We are looking for an intern motivated by health topics with skills in signal processing, machine learning, and deep learning to help us design the algorithms of tomorrow.

Your mission The objective of this internship is to design, develop, and validate algorithms capable of extracting reliable physiological and medical information from physical signals collected by our devices. To successfully carry out this exciting mission, the intern will have the opportunity to:

• Explore and analyze real physiological datasets from our users, searching for relevant markers.
• Design and develop algorithms combining innovative signal processing techniques, fine computational heuristics, and Machine Learning and Deep Learning approaches (supervised or unsupervised).

• Work on algorithmic optimization for embedded implementation, potentially in C language, on resource-constrained systems.
• Participate in defining success criteria and metrics to measure them, and evaluate algorithm performance on varied datasets.

Requirements

• Theoretical knowledge in signal processing and machine learning
• Computer skills: programming in Python, first experience in a deep learning framework (PyTorch or TensorFlow) appreciated
• Bonus: programming in C
• Interest in machine learning
• Interest in connected health applications
• Reading of scientific and technical English
• Writing skills, rigor, and autonomy
• Ability for teamwork and communication
• Duration: 4 to 6 months

What we offer

This internship offers complete immersion in the development of a cutting-edge connected health product, with concrete application and a direct impact on users' lives. You will join a multidisciplinary and dynamic team, where your contribution will be essential to transforming an algorithmic prototype into an embedded feature of our devices, complying with the reliability and performance requirements of the medical industry. The precise subject will be discussed with the intern at most a few weeks before the internship.
