Candidates should possess a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related field, and ideally have a Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant discipline. They should have at least 5 years of experience in software development, with a strong focus on computational chemistry, molecular dynamics, or related areas. Experience with Python and scientific computing libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, and MDAnalysis is required. Familiarity with machine learning techniques and experience with data infrastructure scaling are also beneficial.
The Staff/Principal Software Engineer will build and maintain complex computational chemistry workflows for drug discovery, working closely with computational chemists and CADD scientists to productionize new computational methods for molecular property prediction. They will also be responsible for scaling the company’s data infrastructure to handle large datasets and parallel simulations, and will contribute to the development and maintenance of the GEMS platform. Furthermore, this role involves writing production code, driving projects to completion, and collaborating with a team of accomplished biotech leaders and expert drug hunters to accelerate the discovery of new medicines.
