Who you are

• PhD or equivalent practical experience in a technical field
• Highly specialized LLM builder with a passion for, and strong experience in, applying LLMs to novel problem spaces
• Deep understanding and experience of model architectures, training methods, and techniques for application of LLMs, including deployment for bespoke use cases and applications, established experience in post-training, reasoning, test-time scaling, tool-use, alignment, agents, LLM research, as well as reinforcement learning and fine-tuning
• Strong knowledge of linear algebra, calculus and statistics
• Experience using ML frameworks such as JAX, PyTorch, or TensorFlow, and scientific software such as NumPy, SciPy, or Pandas
• Depending on your experience: project supervision, leadership, or management
• Strong knowledge of LLM landscape today, and likely developments for the near future
• Experience working with real-world datasets
• PhD in machine learning or computer science
• Relevant research experience to the position such as post doctoral roles, a proven track record of publications, or contributions to machine learning codebases
• A strong background in biology or medicine, enabling you to bridge the gap between advanced AI capabilities and complex scientific problems in drug discovery
• Experience working in a scientific environment across disciplines (particularly biology, chemistry, physics), and with real world biological or chemical datasets and biological or chemistry software
• Experience in computational chemistry, bioinformatics, or related fields would be highly beneficial, along with a track record of applying AI to real-world scientific challenges
• Experience with multi-parameter optimization
• Experience in any of: large scale deep learning, generative models, graph neural networks, deep learning for drug discovery, deep learning for computer vision, 3D graphics/robotics, real-world applied RL

What the job involves

Benefits

• Hybrid working: It’s hugely important for us to share knowledge and build strong relationships with each other, and we find it easier to do this if we spend time together in person. This is why we follow a hybrid model, and would require you to be able to come into the office 3 days a week (currently Tuesday, Wednesday, and one other day depending on which team you’re in). If you have additional needs that would prevent you from following this hybrid approach, we’d be happy to talk through these if you’re selected for an initial screening call
