A fast-growing biotech startup is on a mission to reinvent how medicines are discovered.

  • Hands‑on coding experience in python plus the seniority to set direction and frameworks.
  • Proven exp in complex, data voluminous environments, with a keen interest in Bio/Science (bio/health/AI/ML is a bonus, but not required).
  • Familiar with heavy‑duty ML workflows and how compute and data pipelines support them.
  • Thrives in a startup setting—fast‑paced, resource‑constrained, but high‑impact.
