Key skills for this role
We’re hiring a Computational Scientist to help curate, build, and scale Tamarind’s library of AI-powered drug discovery tools.
In this role, you’ll work closely with the founders and engineering team to operationalize cutting-edge models for structure prediction, protein design, docking, scoring, and other core biological AI workloads. You’ll help transform fragmented research tools into production-ready workflows that scientists can run reliably at scale.
You’ll collaborate directly with customers to understand their discovery challenges and help them leverage Tamarind’s platform to run real biological AI pipelines. This often involves chaining multiple tools together, troubleshooting workflows, and identifying opportunities to improve the platform.
This role sits at the intersection of computational biology, machine learning, and scientific infrastructure , and is ideal for someone excited about applying the latest advances in AI to real-world drug discovery programs.
We enable any scientist to access AI-powered drug discovery. Thousands of scientists from large pharma companies, top biotechs, and academic institutions use Tamarind to design protein drugs, improve industrial enzymes, and create cutting edge molecules that weren’t feasible until now.
New AI models are quickly eclipsing physics-based tools in computational drug discovery. Scientists often struggle to fine-tune, deploy, and scale these models, leaving breakthroughs on the table. Tamarind provides a simple interface to the vast array of tools being released daily.
