Machine Learning & AI Scientist
About You:
You are a talented computational scientist with a passion for using machine learning and AI approaches to answer important scientific questions. At Autonomous, you'll be using your AI background to help predict the long-term safety and efficacy of our therapeutics.
An ideal candidate would also have deep experience developing stochastic models to analyze dynamical systems (genomic and disease evolution are two highly relevant examples).
You'll be working closely with our experimental virology and engineering teams to test your predictions in real-time settings in the lab.
In addition to helping us design and optimize new therapies, you'll also be working with us to predict future pandemics and threats to global health.
Experience: At least 4-5 years of experience involving ML or AI, coding (e.g., python), and stochastic modeling.
Job Type: Full-Time
Education: Masters or Doctorate
Virologist
About You:
You are an excellent virologist or synthetic biologist, who wants to help us develop first-in-class antivirals from HIV to herpes.
Specific expertise we’re looking for, includes: extensive work with viral reverse genetics (i.e., viral engineering) systems, experience with high-throughput assays (both developing the assays and using them), tissue culture experience, virus cultivation/quantification experience, as well as knowledge of standard molecular and cell biology techniques (e.g., qPCR, flow cytometry, molecular cloning, and western blots).
We’ll teach you cutting edge bioinformatics, robotics and mathematical modeling which you’ll use to track and predict the outputs of your experiments (e.g., the safety and efficacy of the therapies).
Experience: At least 5 years of wet-lab experience involving mammalian viruses.
Job Type: Full-Time
Education: Doctorate (Required)
Cancer Biologist
About You:
You are a talented biologist with deep experience in oncology as well as in virology or immunology (e.g., you’ve worked on oncolytic viruses).
An ideal candidate has: i) a Ph.D. in cancer biology, immunology or virology ii) at least 5 years of hands-on, wet-lab experience involving human cancers, and iii) experience designing oncolytic viruses or immunotherapies and testing these therapies in vitro and in vivo.
Additional expertise a candidate might have includes: work with tumors in vitro (e.g., organoid systems) and in vivo, viral reverse genetics and (BSL2/3) tissue culture experience, extensive experience with virus cultivation/quantification, as well as knowledge of standard molecular biology and cell biology techniques (e.g., qPCR, flow cytometry, molecular cloning, western blots).
Experience: At least 5 years of wet-lab experience, including significant experience with human cancers.
Job Type: Full-Time
Education: Doctorate (Required)
