insitro's approach to rethinking drug development applies innovative data science and machine learning, at scale, throughout the discovery process. As a Research Engineer, you will help implement, validate, and deploy our largest and most complex methods and models. We work on a variety of problem domains and datasets, including multi-petabyte collections of high-content biological imaging, genomics, and biomolecular structures. To support insitro's work at this scale, our team is passionate about the craft of scientific software engineering, ensuring that our tools, infrastructure, and models are scalable, correct, maintainable, and robust. We are looking for an experienced engineer to help us harness the potential of recent improvements in large language models (LLMs) throughout the drug discovery process. You will work closely with our data scientists, software engineers, biologists, and laboratory scientists to identify, build, and deploy innovative internal tools and products based on LLMs. Potential projects might include providing natural-language data analytics to our scientists, querying scientific literature, or building co-pilots specialized to our ecosystem. While not required, some knowledge of biological or chemical data is valuable in understanding the unique requirements and applications of ML to biology and drug discovery.
