As a Senior Applied Research Scientist, you will join a specialized team focused on developing foundation models for the life sciences. You will be responsible for designing and training large-scale machine learning models at the intersection of genomics, proteomics, and chemistry while conducting experimental designs to probe model capabilities. Your daily work involves mentoring team members, leading research initiatives, crafting strategic roadmaps, and collaborating with hardware and software teams to improve platforms for large-scale applications. You will utilize deep learning for sequences, diffusion models, LLMs, and unsupervised learning techniques. The role requires proficiency in Python and C++ alongside expertise in biochemistry, drug discovery, molecular biology, and chemical engineering. This position addresses the technical challenge of creating foundation models that natively interpret the complex language of cells, biology, and chemistry to advance modern drug discovery.
