Stevenage, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom VONQ Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled Investigator to join our Protein Design and Informatics team. As an Investigator, you will play a key role in developing, integrating, and embedding advanced computational methods and predictive in silico models that accelerate discovery of medicines.

You will work closely with a diverse group of data/ML scientists, cheminformaticians, bioinformaticians, and other experts to impact from target discovery to the clinic - all stages of a therapeutic project. Our team is committed to creating a high-performing team culture of collaboration, curiosity, consistency, agility, quality, peer review, and continuous improvement with a relentless focus on creating medicines for patients.

We offer a competitive salary, an annual bonus based on company performance, healthcare and wellbeing programmes, pension plan membership, and shares and savings programme. We also embrace modern work practises, offering a hybrid working model that empowers you to find the optimal balance between remote and in-office work.

Responsibilities

  • Work with partner functions to generate, validate, and integrate sequence-/structure-based generative AIML models for the de novo design and multi-objective optimization of tool and therapeutic biologics.
  • Innovate, develop, and apply predictive models for protein design and developability engineering, utilizing large-scale NGS, patient-derived, and other proprietary in-house and external data sources.
  • Identify and advocate for the opportunities afforded by scientific computation and platform automation and champion a "predict-first" culture by maximizing use of predictive technology in experimental lines.
  • Collaborate with external groups to further develop protein engineering computational methods.

Requirements

  • PhD or equivalent in Bioinformatics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, Structural Biology, or related fields.
  • Experience in protein structural or sequence analysis.
  • Experience in one or more programming languages (e.g. Python, C/C++).
  • Experience working across scientific and technical disciplines to deliver impactful solutions that drive project progression.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience developing or applying modern ML architectures for sequence- or structure-based protein design models (LLMs, diffusion models, flow-matching, GNNs, etc.).
  • Experience predicting and analyzing protein-protein interactions and surfaces for design.
  • Experience analyzing antibody repertoires for sequence- and structure-based design.
  • Experience predicting structures of RNA or nucleic acid-protein complexes.
  • Experience with molecular simulation techniques.
  • Demonstrated ability to work as team lead or member; ability to work/lead effectively in a matrix environment.
  • Demonstrated learning agility, and scientific curiosity while maintaining focus on driving greater impact in the face of uncertainty and change.
  • Ability to generate conclusion reports, present data in team meetings and participate in writing of abstracts and publications for the scientific community.
