SIMFONI

The SIngapore Medical FOundation AI model (SIMFONI) Programme was established in 2025 to advance the safe and responsible use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Singapore’s public healthcare ecosystem to support healthcare professionals in providing care to patients.

SIMFONI will build up the capabilities and infrastructure to accelerate the development and deployment of large-scale machine learning models, known as Foundation models (FM) for improved healthcare outcomes.

As a Senior Project/Product Manager to lead the research development, integration, and evaluation of AI reasoning models within Singapore’s public healthcare system. The ideal candidate will be a strong systems thinker who can operate across research, clinical, and technical domains to shape innovative AI-enabled tools for real-world impact.

You will oversee multi-party product efforts from concept through proof-of-concept (POC), with a long-term view toward scalable deployment across the national health system. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of public health, technology, and policy—requiring exceptional coordination, clarity of vision, and stakeholder leadership.

The initial focus will be the research and development of a reasoning model for a clinical decision support system supporting the management of cardiometabolic conditions. The candidate will partner closely with multiple project teams to identify and standardise datasets and test vignettes required for FM training and evaluation.
