We are looking for a Research Engineer specializing in LLMs and generative models to help us prototype, train, and productionize the AI components that power AIDO and the AIDO Virtual Lab. You'll work at the intersection of biology, machine learning, and user-facing tools, building core capabilities for autonomous agents, multimodal simulation, and model finetuning.


Key Responsibility
  • Build, refine, productionize, and serve generative models and workflows for biological simulation and experiment orchestration.
  • Work at the intersection of science, product, and engineering to identify problems, implement solutions, and measure their impact on AIDO.
  • Develop APIs and pipelines for model serving, distillation, and tool integration with AIDO's foundation models.
  • Design, implement, and evaluate LLM-based agents to collaborate with users and other agents to plan virtual experiments, run studies, and synthesize knowledge.
  • Support on-demand finetuning and model adaptation of foundation models with specialized datasets.
  • Work at the intersection of science, product, and engineering to prototype end-to-end research workflows and the tools to support them.
  • Contribute to system robustness by improving uncertainty quantification, observability, and traceability in generative workflows.
  • Maintain close attention to efficiency and scalability of models to ensure simulations are cheap, fast, and reproducible.
  • Automate everything.
Qualifications
  • Ph.D. or equivalent practical experience in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field. Experience in life sciences or healthcare is a plus.
  • 2+ years of experience developing, deploying, and evaluating LLMs or generative models (transformers, diffusion models, VAEs, autoregressive architectures, etc.).
  • Proficiency with major deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, HuggingFace Transformers & Accelerate, or Megatron-LM/DeepSpeed.
  • Strong programming skills in Python, and modern web development frameworks, and familiarity with GPU-accelerated tools (e.g., CUDA, cuDNN, Triton).
