Atomwise is a leading artificial intelligence (AI)-centered pharmaceutical company, based in San Francisco, CA. We discover and develop small molecules to improve human health and agricultural productivity.
At Atomwise, every day we’re breaking new ground in developing and applying leading-edge machine learning (ML) methods to pre-clinical drug development. How do you identify the most potent hits in virtual chemical libraries exceeding 1012 (Yes, trillions!) compounds? What about analogs? Do you feel challenged by these problems? Then this is an opportunity to apply your skills (and learn new ones!) at the intersection of chemical/biological sciences, data science, machine learning, and software development.
We are looking for two senior cheminformatics scientists with strong algorithm development skills to join our ml.cheminfo team. The roles are focused on developing algorithms and tools to support the hit discovery and hit-to-lead stages of our pipeline. You will be designing and developing cheminformatics and ML algorithms, analyzing massive small molecule datasets, and conducting innovative drug discovery research. One of the roles will focus on algorithm development, while the other will focus on data analysis. As part of the R&D team, you’ll interact daily with computational chemists, software engineers, machine learning scientists, and fellow cheminformaticians.
