Deepmirror empowers chemists to design better drugs faster with AI. Access to data and expertise are the main barriers for AI in drug discovery. We have built an intuitive co ideation platform on which computational and medicinal chemists can access high quality data to build powerful AI models for their drug programs. Since launching in 2023, our platform is now used by hundreds of chemists across the globe to impact real world drug programs. Now, we are looking for an experienced product engineer to supercharge our product.
In this role, you will design and develop production-grade software that powers AI-driven drug discovery. This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who wants to be involved from day one of the start-up journey and who wants to put new processes into place to build a powerful platform in a high-performing and collaborative team, based in beautiful Victoria House in the heart of London.
As part of the product team, you will work across the full stack to integrate advanced algorithms into core services, ensuring they are production-ready, scalable, and seamlessly embedded in the platform. Leveraging your expertise in product engineering, we encourage you to seize the opportunity to be independent and drive innovation and quality. In the role, you will have substantial growth opportunities, allowing you to shape deepmirror’s technological framework from its inception and learn in an interdisciplinary environment at the interface of physics, chemistry, biology, and machine learning.
