Requirements

Candidates should possess experience in driving challenging deep learning research projects, designing and iterating on novel model architectures, training and inference algorithms, and running, scaling up, and analyzing distributed training experiments. A strong engineering background with clean code practices and a deep understanding of codebases is essential. Experience with generative modeling in adjacent domains like language, images, or 3D graphics is preferred. An MS or PhD in machine learning, computer science, or a related computational science field, along with a publication record at top-tier ML venues, is highly desirable. Expertise in areas such as denoising diffusion, normalizing flows, flow matching, neural ODEs, or other cutting-edge generative techniques is a plus.

Responsibilities

The ML Research Engineer will lead research and engineering efforts focused on generative modeling of molecular systems, driving novel ML experimentation, ideation, execution, and analysis of results. Responsibilities include developing foundation models for small molecule drug discovery by conducting fundamental research at the intersection of machine learning, physics, and computational chemistry. They will also engineer robust software systems for large-scale simulations and training AI models, design and run experiments to validate promising approaches, and ship state-of-the-art models to production. Additionally, the role involves extracting insights from generative modeling literature, developing novel models and training techniques for molecular data, and communicating findings to the team, with opportunities to mentor junior team members and research interns.
