Join our team to develop and validate advanced AI/ML models addressing complex challenges in life science R&D areas such as target choice, patient identification, molecule design and clinical trial effectiveness. Design and implement AI/ML pipelines for rapid experimental iteration, including classical ML models and advanced LLM customization techniques. Collaborate with subject matter experts and AI engineers to develop and deploy models and ensure high-quality, scientifically sound solutions.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and validate advanced AI/ML models to tackle complex problems in target choice, patient identification, molecule design/chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC), and clinical trial effectiveness.

  • Design and implement AI/ML pipelines for data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, hyperparameter tuning, and model evaluation, enabling rapid experimental iteration and adhering to industry’s best practices in MLOps.

  • Besides classical ML models fine-tuning (i.e., support vector machine and random forest), this team is also responsible for large language model (LLM) customization and fine-tuning using complex techniques (i.e., low-rank adaptation (LoRA) and reinforcement learning (RL) with human feedback).

  • Collaborate with AI engineers to deploy AI/ML models in both classical inference pipelines and agentic framework approaches.

  • Collaborate with subject matter experts in pre-clinical research, clinical trial design and operation, precision medicine, regulatory science, and CMC to guarantee scientifically sound and high-quality simulation modeling and analytical solutions.

  • Experience in data wrangling from databases for feature engineering and model training purposes.

  • Experience in Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, and scalable ML architectures.

  • Experience with AI/ML model metrics (e.g., F1 and AI-contents evaluation metrics) including setting up human-in-the-loop (HITL) AI/ML monitoring.

  • Coding and software engineering skills, and knowledge with software engineering principles around testing, code reviews and deployment.

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • MA degree in computer science or equivalent qualitative science fields
