About Xaira Therapeutics

Xaira Therapeutics is an integrated biotechnology company driving advances in artificial intelligence to learn the language of life and transform how we treat disease. The company seeks to rethink the drug discovery and development process from end-to-end by bringing together leading talent across three core areas: machine learning research to better understand biology, expansive data generation to power new models, and robust therapeutic product development to treat disease. Xaira is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Position Overview

The engineering team at Xaira is looking for a senior software engineer to join a fast-paced team working on a variety of initiatives critical to moving our AI-enabled drug discovery platform forward.

We are a small, pragmatic team and you will find yourself:

  1. Collaborating with world experts in AI and Life sciences regularly.
  2. Shipping code daily, with a culture of learning from mistakes and iterating quickly.
  3. Being expected and empowered to work autonomously.
  4. Coming onsite to our office (and lab) - this is not a remote position.

About You

You’re a mission-driven engineer who wants to join a dynamic start-up that’s setting out to change how drugs are developed and save lives in the process. The velocity and autonomy of an early stage start-up appeal to you, and you’re excited to be in an environment where you can ship code and stretch your technical skills. You bring backend, data, or ML experience to the table, and are excited to build tools and systems that will directly impact the process of making new medicines.

Key Responsibilities

We expect our engineers to be able to work across the company and this is a taste of the different areas that we impact:

  1. Compute infrastructure provisioning and optimization for AI science and model training.
  2. Scientific code and research engineering for accelerating scientific progress.
  3. Large scale AI model inference and tooling.
  4. Data warehousing and transport for large biological datasets.
  5. Lab information management and supporting automation engineering.

Minimum Qualifications

  1. B.S. in Computer Science or related field
  2. 6+ years of experience as a software engineer
  3. Solid experience with Python, git, and cloud computing
  4. General experience with backend development, bonus points for FastAPI, and experience with a variety of different persistence technologies.

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Prior experience developing solutions for biotech/life sciences.
  2. Experience with data warehousing and batch processing technologies like Spark, Iceberg, Trino, etc.
  3. Familiarity with PyTorch and writing software for ML.

Compensation

We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package, seeking to provide an open, flexible, and friendly work environment to empower employees and provide them with a platform to develop their long-term careers. A Summary of Benefits is available for all applicants. The base pay range for this position is expected to be $140,000 to $200,000 annually; however, the base pay offered may vary depending on the market, job-related knowledge, skills and capabilities, and experience.

Xaira Therapeutics an equal-opportunity employer. We believe that our strength is in our differences. Our goal to build a diverse and inclusive team began on day one, and it will never end.
