About the Job
We are seeking an ambitious engineer to lead the way in developing AI-driven solutions for the biotech industry. Our mission is to enable great scientists to focus on great science by automating time-consuming lab processes. Scientists often spend months learning and coding pipelines that quickly become obsolete. Our innovative “digital agents” create on-demand custom workflows using natural language in just minutes, allowing scientists to dedicate more time to high-quality experiments.
We conduct cutting-edge AI research and develop state-of-the-art products. Our team has pioneered a network of specialized AI agents that fully automate end-to-end dry-lab processes using just natural language. This includes:
- RNA/DNA sequence processing
- Cleaning, sanitizing, and converting unstructured data to structured data
- Conducting literature reviews and hypothesis testing
- Performing exploratory and complex analysis in minutes (no training required)
Our platform has consistently impressed prospects, with reactions such as:
- “This is incredible!!”
- “It seems impossible! Too good to be true.”
- “How did you make it do that?!”
- “Can I try this on my datasets today?”
- “This is going to make my life so much easier.”
Why AI x Biotech?
- Data in biotech has increased 10,000x over the past 10 years.
- AI in biopharma is projected to grow 20x over the next 7 years, from $200M to $4B, with a 54% CAGR.
Traction
Founded by two scientists, we are a venture-backed, fast-growing startup with a strong presence in the US and Europe. We are well-capitalized and supported by some of the most respected names in biotech.
Who Are You?
