  • Partner closely with an interdisciplinary team of scientists and technologists to build tools and techniques that will drive the entire company forward
  • Communicate with a diverse range of collaborators, including company leadership (VP+)

  • Experience working collaboratively in an interdisciplinary environment and communicating complex technical concepts and ideas to broad audiences

  • Receive real-time feedback from peers on analysis results, scientific methodology, and code quality and best practices
  • Ability to learn from and participate regularly in scientific brainstorming sessions and discussions with the entire Inception Labs team

The Values That We Hope You Share:
  • We Care: We care about our drug candidates, our Recursionauts, their families, each other, our communities, the patients we aim to serve and their loved ones. We also care about our work.
  • We Learn: Learning from the diverse perspectives of our fellow Recursionauts, and from failure, is an essential part of how we make progress.
  • We Deliver: We are unapologetic that our expectations for delivery are extraordinarily high. There is urgency to our existence: we sprint at maximum engagement, making time and space to recover.
  • Act Boldly with Integrity: No company changes the world or reinvents an industry without being bold. It must be balanced; not by timidity, but by doing the right thing even when no one is looking.
  • We are One Recursion: We operate with a 'company first, team second' mentality. Our success comes from working as one interdisciplinary team.

Recursion spends time and energy connecting every aspect of work to these values. They aren't static, but regularly discussed and questioned because we make decisions rooted in those values in our day-to-day work. You can read more about our values and how we live them every day here.
