if you scroll down you'll find a funded opportunity to work on a healthcare ML project, incidentally backed by the DoD, which as you know has a pretty awkward relationship with SV (including non-unique URLs). But in this case, they're trying to pay people to hunt cancer, other healthcare challenges. This bit is fairly unique to the OTA contract vehicle that Defense Innovation Unit uses, and I suspect of significant interest to start-ups: "Companies are advised that any Prototype Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) awarded in response to this Area of Interest may result in the award of a follow-on production contract or transaction without the use of further competitive procedures." If you have a look here (1), you'll see the follow-on production contracts can be quite substantial.
