Job description

Overview

In this hands-on Scientist role, you apply machine-learning methods to diverse biological data to advance TCI-ability studies in drug discovery. You will partner with computational biology, data science, and discovery teams to turn datasets into actionable insights, build reusable analysis workflows, and deliver results on a defined program timeline. The work blends protein structure, phenotypic, and multimodal data to generate testable hypotheses and impact decision-making. You will contribute to robust prototypes and clear documentation in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Responsibilities
  • Develop and apply ML and statistics for TCI-ability projects using protein structure, phenotypic, and multimodal data
  • curate, harmonize, and QC structured/unstructured data; document provenance and limitations
  • Build reproducible workflows for feature generation, model training, validation, and evaluation
  • Integrate protein structural representations with other modalities to generate hypotheses and prioritize analyses
  • Write clear, maintainable analysis code and contribute to repositories and docs
  • Collaborate with cross-functional scientists to translate questions into workplans and deliverables
  • Communicate methods, findings, risks, and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Support rapid iteration on project-specific prototypes and analyses in a dynamic discovery environment
Key requirements
  • Advanced degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) in computational biology, bioinformatics, computational chemistry, cheminformatics, computer science, data science, biophysics, quantitative biology, or related field
  • Hands-on experience applying ML to biological, chemical, or biomedical data
  • Experience with protein structure data and/or structure-derived features in research or drug discovery
  • Experience integrating, analyzing, or modeling phenotypic and multimodal datasets
  • Strong programming skills in Python and libraries for scientific computing and ML
  • Ability to build reproducible, well-documented computational workflows and evaluate model performance
  • Strong problem-solving, written communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills
  • Ability to independently execute defined project work and deliver high-quality outputs on a timeline
  • cross-functional collaboration
  • written and verbal communication
  • problem-solving
  • Python
  • scientific computing libraries
  • machine-learning libraries
