Company mission

To develop artificial intelligence to understand biology for the benefit of human health and society.

Role

Who you are

  • Experience with typescript, react
  • Experience with Pytorch or low-level programming is a plus
  • Experience with user interfaces in biology or natural sciences

What the job involves

  • Our team bridges the gap between deep research and product development
  • We work together as a team to solve big research challenges, and value the ability to communicate and collaborate well. Research Engineers and Researcher Scientists are both researchers, and we assign equal value to both roles without hierarchy between them
  • We expect our technical staff to contribute to both research and engineering, while team members can sometimes be stronger at one or the other
  • Responsible for full stack development with a focus on proficiency in frontend and backend technologies, particularly Next.js and React
  • Lead the development and implementation of user interfaces for machine learning models

Our take

EvolutionaryScale, an AI startup pioneering the 'ChatGPT moment for biology', is at the forefront of transforming the field with its ground-breaking technology. Backed by Amazon Web Services and NVIDIA's venture capital arm, the company aims to revolutionize biology through artificial intelligence.

Central to EvolutionaryScale's mission is ESM3, the first large language model for creating novel proteins. It leverages a vast dataset of nearly 2.8 billion proteins, plus computational tools that analyze protein sequence, structure and function simultaneously. This can help accelerate drug discovery, as well as enable sustainable solutions through engineered microbes.

EvolutionaryScale's approach should help accelerate scientific breakthroughs and enhance precision in biotechnological applications. The company's success hinges on its ethical use of AI to tackle these challenges, by accelerating protein engineering beyond natural evolution so that it can be put to use against our greatest problems.
