HOW TO APPLY – https://apply.deshawresearch.com/careers/Register?pipelineId=597&source=Molecular+Sciences+Software+Institute
Machine learning researchers and engineers with impressive records of academic and professional achievements sought to join our interdisciplinary team in New York City.
This is a unique opportunity to collaborate with our chemists, biologists, and computer scientists to expand the group’s efforts applying machine learning to drug discovery, biomolecular simulation, and biophysics. Areas of focus include generative models to help identify novel molecules for drug discovery targets, predict PK and ADME properties of small molecules, develop more accurate approaches for molecular simulations, and understand disease mechanisms. Ideal candidates will have strong Python programming skills. Relevant areas of experience might include deep learning techniques, systems software, high performance computation, numerical algorithms, data science, cheminformatics, medicinal chemistry, structural biology, molecular physics, and/or quantum chemistry, but specific knowledge of any of these areas is less critical than intellectual curiosity, versatility, and a track record of achievement and innovation in the field of machine learning.
D. E. Shaw Research (DESRES) develops and uses advanced computational technologies to understand the behavior of biologically and pharmaceutically significant molecules at an atomic level of detail, and to design precisely targeted, highly selective drugs for the treatment of various diseases. Among its core technologies is Anton, a proprietary special-purpose supercomputer that DESRES designed and constructed to vastly accelerate the process of molecular dynamics simulation. DESRES uses Anton machines and high-speed commodity hardware, together with machine learning methods and other computational techniques, in both internal and collaborative drug discovery programs.

We are looking to add innovative contributors who share our commitment to fostering a stimulating, positive, and collaborative work environment.
