title: Foundation and generative models for biomolecules
description: At Inceptive, you will drive forward development that could help billions of people. You will be part of a collaborative, interdisciplinary team building our biological software. The design space of biomolecules is unimaginably vast , far beyond what can be explored experimentally. Yet within this space lie molecules with properties essential for new medicines. Our machine learning models learn to design therapeutic biomolecules with specific, desirable functions. We advance the state of the art in molecular design by training large-scale foundation models and developing cutting-edge generative approaches. The models learn from diverse heterogeneous datasets and are refined through focused fine-tuning and feedback from experiments. Key to progress is a team that combines exceptional machine learning expertise with thorough domain understanding. You will collaborate closely with other machine learning researchers and engineers, as well as computational and experimental biologists, to advance these models and translate their capabilities into real therapeutic designs. Responsibilities Embody our vision of an interdisciplinary environment and embrace learning about areas outside of your traditional area of expertise Develop, implement, train, and iteratively improve state-of-the-art models for biomolecule design Analyze, visualize, and communicate results to support team efforts in improving models and data Create, deploy, and refine tools for efficient, reliable machine learning experimentation and production Work with biologists to collect data for the training and evaluation of generative models of biomolecules Provide mentorship and technical direction to team members as appropriate Qualifications 3+ years of hands-on experience developing ML models Demonstrated track record of implementing, training, improving advanced machine learning models Highly capable programmer fluent in Python ecosystem and PyTorch or similar deep learning framework Availability to work wi…
