Harmonize your Wet and Dry Lab. Backed by Lux.

About the role

We are seeking exceptional basic and clinical scientists to join our team working at the frontier of what artificial intelligence can achieve in combatting rare and/or progressive diseases. Of note: this role will not include work on cancer, for which we have a separate role. This is an early team, and you will have a critical role in defining our strategy across multiple benchmarks. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

More about this role

Latch builds rigorous scientific benchmarks ( benchmarks.bio ) for AI agents across biology. We work with frontier labs and pharma to measure whether agents can handle real biological workflows: the messy, multi-layer reasoning that matters in the field.

About the Role

You will contribute to our technical approach for evaluating how AI agents can help diagnose, treat, conduct research and perform target discovery in rare and progressive disease. Working with scientists, physician-scientists, software engineers and computational biologists, you'll build ground-truth benchmark datasets, drawn from studies, your experience, and novel work, that rigorously test whether agents can perform the critical analytical and interpretative steps that expert scientists do.
