As a Senior Software Engineer on the TuneLab team, you will join an early-stage engineering group focused on transforming complex AI/ML models into a scalable SaaS offering for biotech companies. You will own product surfaces end-to-end, building the application layer, frontend, backend, and data integrations required to create cohesive workflows for drug discovery. Your daily work involves shipping features from fuzzy requirements, navigating enterprise infrastructure, and implementing federated learning to allow customers to train models without moving their data. You must demonstrate full-stack fundamentals, solid API design, cloud experience, and familiarity with LLM-powered features and AI-assisted development tools like Cursor or Claude Code. This role solves the technical challenge of democratizing proprietary research data by providing accessible, reliable in silico modeling tools for the biotech ecosystem.
