Responsibilities

  • Build machine learning models that work in the physical world [~90% of your time]:
  • Contribute to a careful curation of our training and evaluation data.
  • Propose and build ML evaluation metrics that align with real world success and company goals.
  • Quickly prototype generative models against our lead metrics and perform deep analyses of improvements.
  • Collaborate in a joint codebase with other research scientists, engineers and protein designers, maintaining highest code standards.
  • Contribute to the maintenance of our compute and ML development infrastructure.
  • In collaboration with the bio team, plan wet lab testing campaigns and carry out model inference against biological targets to enable their testing in the wet lab.
  • Quickly learn from wet lab results and feedback data to our models.
  • Self development [~10% of your time]:
  • Stay on top of the latest developments in ML.
  • Gain a strong working understanding of protein and cell biology.
  • Participate in knowledge sharing, e.g. organize and present at our internal reading group.
  • Attend and present at conferences.
  • Apply
  • We offer strongly competitive compensation and benefits packages, including:
  • Private health insurance
  • Pension/401(K) contributions
  • Generous leave policies (including gender neutral parental leave)
  • Hybrid working
