- At , we are creating tools to develop increasingly powerful biological software for the rational design of novel, broadly accessible medicines and biotechnologies previously out of reach. Our team brings together vast expertise in molecular biology, machine learning, and software engineering, and we are all working towards becoming antedisciplinary, meaning we deepen the knowledge we have in our area of expertise while also expanding our knowledge of completely new fields.
- We approach our goals with a Beginner's mind, humbly and with fresh eyes, and aim to become the pioneers of a new discipline rooted in biology as much as in deep learning, whose impact will be realized together with out-of-the-box thinkers in business and entrepreneurship, defying established categorizations. We are building a company culture centered around growth, learning, and discovery. We believe in humility and open-mindedness in how we approach each other, as well as problems we don't yet have solutions for.

- builds foundation models of life to enable medicines otherwise out of reach. We are seeking an exceptional scientific leader to build the experimental engine that trains, tests, and improves models that design medicines.
- You will integrate molecular and cellular biology, functional genomics, screening, automation, and therapeutic development into a coherent experimental platform. Working closely with ML and translational biology experts, you will design and pioneer experiments to most effectively expand our models’ understanding of life and ability to design better medicines. This is a role for a scientific builder: someone who can identify transformative experimental opportunities, rapidly onboard and, where necessary, invent the required technologies, and assemble outstanding teams to turn ambitious ideas into scalable systems.
