Job description
Meliora is seeking talented machine learning engineers to play a key role in developing the core algorithmic engine of a next-generation biotechnology company.

Machine learning team members play an important role in developing the core algorithmic engine of a next-generation biotechnology company, and so we are looking for people who delight in being multi-disciplinary, seek excellence at every turn, and have an unyielding desire to continuously learn and share knowledge. If this sounds like you, we would love to speak with you.

What you’ll do:
Bring your technical skills to bear on a critical problem in cancer treatment that results in 97% of cancer drugs failing their clinical trials
Develop, implement and validate novel, machine learning-driven methods of associating drugs and their properties with their true mechanism of action in cancer cells
Lead the development of large-scale machine learning algorithm training and evaluation pipelines
Grow, learn and contribute to cutting edge platform development that drives drug discovery.
Be a culture-setter by embodying the company’s principles of truth-seeking, mutual respect, integrity, drive, and teamwork

Background and skills we are looking for:
MS-level expertise in applied machine learning developed either through a formal degree or meaningful experience in performing similar work
Expertise in the implementation of production-ready advanced machine learning algorithms using TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Jax
Familiarity with and ability to develop large-scale machine learning systems and workflows including parallel training and evaluation pipelines
A solid grasp of the fundamentals of machine learning science including broad capability in probability, statistics, machine learning, and programming
Experience in solving deep technical challenges by helping to develop and validate novel methodologies
Expertise in genomics or cheminformatics isn’t necessary to start with, but you will need to be comfortable building an extensive cross-disciplinary background as you go
Excellent communication skills to synthesize complex technical problems and solutions into content easily understandable by the scientific and leadership teams to facilitate critical decisions
Ability to be highly successful operating in a multidisciplinary environment and a willingness to collaborate across functional teams is essential
Bonus: experience working with biological or *omics datasets and pipelines

What we offer:
Highly competitive compensation with equity
Medical, dental, and vision insurance plans
Remote work
The opportunity to have your career grow along with our company
Work focused on developing cutting-edge technical methodologies to directly create meaningful positive impact on human health
The freedom to develop your own methodologies and approaches in collaboration with our team to solve our most important challenges
The opportunity to work with a world-class interdisciplinary team with expertise spanning numerous fields in biology, computer science, and machine learning. We learn from each other everyday and we’re excited to continue learning as we grow!
Quarterly US based travel for on-site retreats
