Artificial Intelligence Engineer
THAKAA MED · Riad, Riyadh, Arabia Saudí
We're Not Hiring. We're Building a Movement.
ThakaaMed is Saudi Arabia's leading healthcare AI company. We're building Super Healthcare Intelligence — AI that detects 100+ dental conditions, chest abnormalities, strokes, and retinal diseases in seconds.
2.5 billion people lack access to quality diagnostics. We're changing that.
Now we're looking for a Senior AI Healthcare Engineer to join as the senior technical leader in a team of 2 AI engineers. This isn't a job. It's equity in a company powering Vision 2030.
🎯 THE ROLE
You'll work directly with the C-suite to:
→ Architect our IQ Platform (Dental IQ, Chest IQ, Stroke IQ, Retina IQ)
→ Understand healthcare integrations (HL7, FHIR, DICOM, PACS) that plug AI into clinical workflows
→ Develop computer vision models using PyTorch, MONAI, and custom architectures
→ Optimize inference pipelines — GPU acceleration, distributed computing, edge deployment
→ Mentor the next generation of healthcare AI engineers
→ Ship medical devices deployed across Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, and Morocco
🔥 THE PLAYGROUND
We don't talk about cutting-edge tech. We own it.
→ NVIDIA GPUs with NVLink
→ Proprietary data center in Riyadh — your models, your data, your control
→ PyTorch, MONAI, Docker/K8s, 10Gbps networking
→ Access to diverse, properly labeled medical imaging datasets
→ Fully funded. Zero cloud lock-in. Zero bureaucracy.
✅ YOU BRING
→ 7+ years shipping production AI/ML systems (healthcare/medical imaging preferred)
→ Deep expertise in computer vision — CNNs, transformers, segmentation architectures
→ Production HL7, FHIR, DICOM experience (you know theory vs implementation)
→ Python mastery. Bonus: Rust, systems optimization
→ Track record leading technical teams
→ Fluent English (Arabic a plus)
→ Willingness to be in or relocate to Riyadh
Bonus points
→ Publications (NeurIPS, MICCAI, CVPR)
→ Open-source contributions (MONAI, OHIF)
→ Regulatory experience (SFDA, FDA 510(k), CE marking)
💰 WHAT YOU EARN
→ Competitive base salary — market-leading for the region
→ Equity participation — own a piece of a company scaling to hundreds of millions SAR
→ Performance bonuses tied to technical milestones
→ Relocation support for exceptional candidates
→ Direct executive access — your ideas reach decision-makers in hours, not months
📍 LOCATION
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Remote start possible for exceptional candidates.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Saudi Arabia is investing $20B+ into healthcare transformation. ThakaaMed is at the center — partnering with the Ministry of Health, SFDA, and major hospitals to build the AI infrastructure for the next generation of care.
16-person team growing to 35. Small enough to matter. Big enough to scale.
This is your chance to jin one of the most disruptive companies in the region.
Ready?
ThakaaMed is committed to diversity and inclusion. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply.
