About Us
We are building the gold-standard data layer that AI drug discovery platforms will run on. Partnered with leading AI labs, global tech companies, and top pharma, we're a fast-growing Palo Alto-based team on a mission to accelerate drug discovery through AI.
The Role
You don't need an AI background — you need deep scientific expertise. In this role, you'll use your research experience in bioinformatics to help fine-tune large language models (like ChatGPT) built for drug discovery.
What You'll Do
- Perform medicinal chemistry analysis and provide small molecule design and drug discovery expertise for assigned work.
- Provide expert scientific feedback to AI researchers from leading labs, helping shape how AI models interpret drug discovery workflows in medicinal chemistry and small molecule design contexts.
What We're Looking For
- PhD in Medicinal Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Synthetic Chemistry, Chemical Biology, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Bioorganic Chemistry, or a closely related chemistry discipline
- 3+ years of industry experience in small molecule drug discovery within pharma or biotech,
- Demonstrated track record of advancing small molecule programs through discovery and into the clinic (e.g., hit-to-lead, lead optimization, candidate nomination, IND-enabling studies, clinical entry)
Offer Details
- Commitment: 15–30 hours/week (with overlap in PST)
- Compensation: Highly competitive, top 10% of industry rates
- Engagement: Contractor/freelancer (no medical or paid leave)
- Duration: 1 month, with possible extension
- Remote: Fully remote, collaborative environment
Pay: $80.00 - $150.00 per hour
Work Location: Remote
