About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Validate AI outputs using computational methods - simulations, structural analysis, database cross-referencing
Translate AI predictions into executable protocols for cloud labs (Emerald, Strateos) or technical specs for CROs
Build and maintain validation pipelines that catch errors before they waste lab resources
Manage the "hand-off" between digital predictions and physical experiments
Transform JSON outputs from our agents into experimental protocols and validation workflows

Requirements

What you’ll need

PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or related field preferred - or equivalent exceptional experience
Strong proficiency in Python and/or R for data analysis and pipeline development
Experience with computational validation methods (molecular simulations, structural analysis, sequence analysis)
