3 stage interview process
Help rewrite the rules of protein engineering. Our client is a next-generation biotech developing breakthrough Protein Sequencing technologies by uniting AI, structural biology and machine learning at scale. Their mission: decode and redesign proteins with unprecedented accuracy and you could help shape it.
You'll join a world-class Data Science & Algorithms group building computational pipelines that bring new proteins to life. As a Senior Scientist, you'll design, model and optimize high-affinity protein binders leveraging structural modeling, AI-driven design and experimental feedback loops that close the discovery cycle in real time.
This is your chance to apply state-of-the-art computational methods where they matter most: in transforming biology into designable, predictable technology.
You'll be doing:
Engineering and screening novel protein scaffolds for selective binding.
Building integrated design pipelines using ML, structure-based modeling, and generative tools.
Partnering with wet lab scientists to test, iterate and refine designs based on real-world data.
Push boundaries of protein engineering with high-throughput protein design technologies.
You must have:
Deep expertise in protein structure prediction and design (AlphaFold, ProteinMPNN or related).
Solid understanding of protein-peptide and protein-protein interactions.
Successful track record coding in Python and developing computational or ML-driven design methods.
PhD in Computational Biology, Bioengineering or Structural Biology (or MSc + industry experience).
Bonus points:
Published work in generative or ML assisted protein design.
Send your CV and join the team driving the next breakthrough.
