A unified interface 300+ AI molecular design tools, available via web interface, API, and agents. Run models like AlphaFold, RFdiffusion, or BindCraft at massive scale, connect them together and fine-tune them on internal data. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We’re hiring three exceptional Founding Software Engineers to help us scale the computational biology platform that powers our drug discovery pipeline. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with the founders to design, build, and scale our infrastructure, APIs, and web interface. You’ll own major pieces of our stack end-to-end — from architecture to deployment — and ship features that directly impact scientists and customers.
What they're looking for
- Adaptability and openness to work on diverse problems (e.g. batch HPC scaling, frontend development, automated fine-tuning…)
- AWS DevOps (DynamoDB, EC2, S3, docker, etc.) and MLOps (CUDA, Conda, Tensorflow, PyTorch)
- Front-end development (React/Vercel)
- Willingness to learn about biology-ML models
- Located in the SF Bay Area or able to relocate to the Bay Area
More about this role
We enable any scientist to access AI-powered drug discovery. Thousands of scientists from large pharma companies, top biotechs, and academic institutions use Tamarind to design protein drugs, improve industrial enzymes, and create cutting edge molecules that weren’t feasible until now.
New AI models are quickly eclipsing physics-based tools in computational drug discovery. Scientists often struggle to fine-tune, deploy, and scale these models, leaving breakthroughs on the table. Tamarind provides a simple interface to the vast array of tools being released daily.
