Job Description
**About Us**
We are building the gold\-standard data layer that AI drug discovery platforms will run on. Partnered with leading AI labs, global tech companies, and top pharma, we're a fast\-growing Palo Alto\-based team on a mission to accelerate drug discovery through AI.
**The Role**
You don't need an AI background — you need deep scientific expertise. In this role, you'll use your research experience in bioinformatics to help fine\-tune large language models (like ChatGPT) built for drug discovery.
**What You'll Do**
* Perform bioinformatics analysis and provide drug development expertise for assigned work.
* Provide expert scientific feedback to AI researchers from leading labs, helping shape how AI models interpret drug discovery workflows in bioinformatics and computational biology contexts.
**What We're Looking For**
* Hands\-on experience supporting active clinical programs and clinical trials, including biomarker analysis, patient stratification, mechanism\-of\-action (MoA) characterization, and development of translational strategies to inform clinical decision\-making
* PhD in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, or a related life sciences or physical sciences field (postdocs, biopharma scientists, and industry researchers welcome)
* 3\+ years of industry experience, with demonstrated experience in translational and/or clinical bioinformatics within a pharmaceutical or biotech setting
**Offer Details**
* Commitment: 15–30 hours/week (with overlap in PST)
* Compensation: Highly competitive, top 10% of industry rates
* Engagement: Contractor/freelancer (no medical or paid leave)
* Duration: 1 month, with possible extension
* Remote: Fully remote, collaborative environment
Pay: $80\.00 \- $150\.00 per hour
Work Location: Remote
