Remote Computational Biologist - AI-Driven Biotech

$120K–$150K/year

About the Role

We are seeking a Remote Computational Biologist to join our innovative team at Bio, a decentralized science protocol that empowers AI-driven biotech research. This role is pivotal in bridging our advanced AI systems with real-world applications, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of our outputs before they reach the lab. As a computational biologist, you will play a crucial role in validating AI predictions and transforming them into actionable protocols.

What You'll Do

  • Validate AI outputs using computational methods, including simulations and structural analysis.
  • Translate AI predictions into executable protocols for cloud labs such as Emerald and Strateos.
  • Build and maintain validation pipelines that catch errors before they waste lab resources.
  • Manage the transition between digital predictions and physical experiments.
  • Transform JSON outputs from our AI agents into experimental protocols and validation workflows.

Requirements

  • PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or a related field preferred, or equivalent exceptional experience.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and/or R for data analysis and pipeline development.
  • Experience with computational validation methods, including molecular simulations and sequence analysis.
  • Ability to critically evaluate biological predictions and identify potential issues.
  • Comfort working at the interface of software and biology.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with cloud lab platforms (Emerald, Strateos, or similar).
  • Background working with CROs or translating computational work to wet-lab execution.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML systems and their failure modes.
  • Experience red-teaming or adversarially testing scientific predictions.

What We Offer

  • Work at the cutting edge of AI-driven biology.
  • Fully remote - work from anywhere in the world.
  • Join a small team where your expertise directly shapes our science.
  • Competitive compensation with a token/equity component.
  • Flexible work hours and a supportive work environment.
