Axiom is a company that eliminates drug toxicity by providing scientists with AI models that are more accurate and affordable than traditional physical experiments. Their key product is an AI-driven liver toxicity prediction model that uses the world's largest human liver dataset combined with advanced machine learning techniques to predict clinical liver injury with higher accuracy and lower cost. This approach helps reduce drug development failures due to toxicity, saving millions in synthesis and assay costs and avoiding late-stage clinical trial failures. Axiom's technology is positioned as a modern alternative to animal testing, aligning with regulatory shifts away from animal experiments. Their platform offers precise clinical risk assessment and data visualization tools, serving large pharmaceutical companies as early partners.

Charter: Be a founding member of a team setting out to build the first accurate AI systems for replacing lab and animal toxicity experiments with AI models
What are we looking for: At the highest level, we only want to hire people who deeply inspire us and relentlessly push us to be better. They must level up the entire team, bringing significant energy and a sense of awe. High agency is critical: they see what’s important and they do it. Doing is the key but it should be guided by great taste for what truly matters. We’re looking for folks doing those niche hobbies and activities, the ones that might not make sense at first glance, but eventually reveal profound depth and passion when you dive in with them. These individuals act with intentionality or whimsical naivety like an immigrant in a new country, a performer trying to break out, or someone teaching themselves to code or garden. There must be a deep curiosity for all facets of Axiom, an ambition fueling their exploration of what we do. They want to do something here, to dive in headfirst, but they know they need to learn more, so they search with an insatiable hunger. They need to be cracked, technically excellent, obsessive masters of their craft. They're irrational; they could work in big tech, but they know it will not satisfy them. They want the pain of doing something brutally hard along with the riches and glory when it finally works.
What you will be doing:
We’re especially interested in:
What we look for:
Has done at least one piece of work, in industry or in academia, that shows exceptional machine learning talent
Strong engineering abilities (writing Pytorch NN code, working with data in numpy / pandas, interacting with training and inference pipelines, and writing more general software in Python and interacting with the cloud)
Extremely high potential to become a leader in the field of ML/AI research
Demonstrates extreme, obsessive curiosity for both the science and business
