About PhysicsX

Accelerating industrial innovation with AI: We build AI to improve the design, manufacturing, and operation of complex products and processes. Backed by General Catalyst.

About the role

You’ll build this distinctive atoms-to-systems capability, coupling atomistic and molecular insight into the continuum and systems-scale models across PhysicsX, so our customers can industrialise novel materials and processes faster. This is a mandate to define and deliver a new era for chemists, materials scientists, process engineers, and operators. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Decide which machine learning approaches for chemistry we build, which we adopt, and how they couple into our continuum and systems-scale models
  • Own the balance between capability development and time with our customers
  • Stay hands-on enough to go deep with the team on hard technical problems
