AI for drug design is limited by sparse and fragmented data. deepmirror is an AI-native drug design platform built around curated, non-public experimental molecule property measurements (potency, binding, ADMET) aggregated from patents, papers, and partners. We help chemistry teams choose the next best experiments to progress programs faster with fewer dead ends. Since launching in 2023, our platform is now used by hundreds of chemists across the globe to impact real world drug programs in oncology, dementia, inflammation, and global health.
Now, we are looking for an experienced research engineer to supercharge our product.
In this role, you will design and develop cutting-edge algorithms for drug design to tackle real-world challenges of AI in drug discovery. This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who wants to be involved from day one of the start-up journey and who wants to put new processes into place to build a powerful platform in a high-performing and collaborative team, based in beautiful Victoria House in the heart of London.
As part of the team, you will build and contribute to core services integrating advanced property prediction models into our platform and interface with users to improve their experience. Leveraging your expertise in scientific knowledge and software engineering, we encourage you to seize the opportunity to be independent and drive innovation and quality. In the role, you will have substantial growth opportunities, allowing you to shape deepmirror’s technological framework from its inception and learn in an interdisciplinary environment at the interface of physics, chemistry, biology, and machine learning.
