Internship
About the job
- Published at 1+ first-author papers in a top ML conference (NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, etc.)
- Trained a 1B+ param model from scratch
- Come from a research background (preference for MS or PhD) in at least one of these fields: Computer-Use Agents, Vision-Language Models, Computer Vision, Robotics, RL
- Have significant experience with PyTorch, HuggingFace, or similar libraries
- Are high-agency and comfortable owning large, ambiguous problem spaces
- Are comfortable working long hours in a high-intensity, early-stage environment
- Are excited to be on-site in SF and collaborate closely with a small team
- Are interested in healthcare as an application (prior background not necessary)
- You must be in-person in SF for the duration of the internship.
- You must be authorized to work in the US (we support eVerify)
- You can start within the next month
- Develop novel evals, RL environments, and benchmarks to reflect real-world healthcare workflows
- Develop, train, and evaluate computer-use agents for complex healthcare interfaces
- Build and maintain data pipelines to transform raw human data into high-quality training and evaluation assets
- Write and publish papers in academic conferences
- Work across the stack: models, tooling, infra, product, and internal workflows
About the company
Kinetic Systems and Technologies, Inc. builds data infrastructure for autonomous care delivery by providing curated reinforcement learning environments and post-training datasets for AI researchers and developers. Its flagship HealthAdminBench benchmarks AI agents on multi-step healthcare admin tasks such as prior authorizations, denial appeals, and ordering durable medical equipment, with fine-tuned models showing stronger performance on these tasks than general-purpose models. The company focuses specifically on healthcare administration to solve economically significant workflows, operates in a B2B model with frontier AI labs, providers, MSOs, and BPOs, and maintains SOC 2 and HIPAA compliance. Its goal is to enable customers to deploy AI that can manage complex administrative work and support more autonomous care and healthcare operations.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- Prior Scientific acquired Kinetic Systems on September 2, 2025, adding global distribution.
- KineticSystems.com updated product pages in August 2026, showing active commercialization and catalog maintenance.
- The company sells into recurring replacement cycles for optical tables and vibration-control upgrades.
What critics are saying
- Kinetic Systems depends on cyclical research and semiconductor capital spending for demand.
- Stand-alone division status signals integration friction, slowing cross-selling and engineering synergies through 2026.
- If Prior Scientific underinvests, Kinetic Systems becomes a niche accessory business and loses strategic priority.
What makes Kinetic Systems unique
- Boston-based Kinetic Systems sells vibration isolation and optical tables for ultra-sensitive instruments.
- Prior Scientific kept Kinetic Systems as a standalone division after the September 2025 acquisition.
- Its MK26 workstation reaches 0.5 Hz natural frequency, targeting semiconductors, microscopy, and aerospace.
