About Ataraxis AI

Ataraxis AI is a VC-backed start-up working at the intersection of multi-modal AI, oncology, and precision medicine. We are building cutting-edge diagnostic tools to assist physicians in selecting the most optimal treatments for their patients.

We are a team of AI researchers, medical doctors and operators advised by a team of advisors who are pioneers in their respective fields, including the AI godfather, Yann LeCun, and oncologists at top cancer research institutes.

At Ataraxis, you will have a unique opportunity to shape not just the future of our company, but the future of healthcare. We are looking to bring on highly motivated candidates to fulfill this mission.

We operate with a flat organizational structure where every team member is expected to actively contribute. Leadership roles are earned by those who demonstrate initiative and deliver consistently high performance. Strong work ethic and the ability to prioritize effectively are essential.
