Prescient Design is looking for Machine Learning Engineers to develop structural and machine learning-based methods for molecular design within the companies Research and Early Development (gRED) organization, focusing on deploying new techniques for machine learning-based molecular optimization for the analysis and design of small and large molecule drugs.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience with machine learning libraries in production-ready workflows (e.g., PyTorch + Lightning + Weights and Biases).
  • Experience with physical modeling methods (e.g., molecular dynamics) and cheminformatics toolkits (e.g., rdkit).
  • Molecular property prediction
  • Computational chemistry
  • De novo drug design
  • Medicinal chemistry
  • Small molecule design

Responsibilities

  • Manage projects deploying new techniques for machine learning-based molecular optimization for the analysis and design of small and large molecule drugs within target-driven design campaigns.
  • Engineering pipelines for probabilistic molecular property prediction and Bayesian acquisition for active learning-based drug discovery.
  • Engineering pipelines for molecular generative modeling.
  • Develop machine learning and Bayesian optimization workflows to analyze existing and design new small and large molecules.
  • Work on existing projects and generate new project ideas.

Other

  • PhD in a quantitative field (e.g., Computer Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Computational Biology, Physics), or MS with 3+ years of industry experience.
  • Record of achievement, including at least one high-impact first author publication or equivalent.
  • Excellent written, visual, and oral communication and collaboration skills.
  • Public portfolio of computational projects (e.g., GitHub).
  • Hybrid Working Model
