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.
We're hiring a Staff Software Engineer to provide technical leadership across our engineering team as we continue to scale the platform behind Tamarind.
Today, our engineering team consists primarily of early and mid-career engineers. As the complexity of our systems and customer requirements continues to grow, we're looking for someone who can help guide technical decision-making, mentor engineers, and drive architectural discussions across the organization.
This is not an engineering management role.
We're looking for a hands-on technical leader who enjoys writing code, reviewing designs, solving difficult engineering...
