Research Engineer

Palo Alto, CA, United States GenBio AI Full time

Headquartered in Silicon Valley, we are a newly established start-up, where a collective of visionary scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs are dedicated to transforming the landscape of biology and medicine through the power of Generative AI. Our team comprises leading minds and innovators in AI and Biological Science, pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We are dreamers who reimagine a new paradigm for biology and medicine.

GenBio AI is building the AI-Driven Digital Organism (AIDO) and the AIDO Virtual Cell Lab, a platform where researchers can design, perturb, and observe biological systems entirely in silico using biological foundation models and LLMs. We are looking for a Research Engineer specializing in building inference and finetuning infrastructure, with a focus on LLMs and generative models (e.g. AIDO.StructureDiffusion). You'll work on closing the gap between research and production in the AIDO model ecosystem, bringing new models to internal and external users through on-demand inference and finetuning.

Key Responsibility

    • Design and own AIDO's internal model ecosystem, including scalable infrastructure for serving, finetuning, distillation, and inference across many model sizes and architectures.
    • Develop reusable pipelines for on-demand model finetuning using internal and external datasets, ensuring reproducibility and cost-efficiency.
    • Build APIs and inference tools that integrate deeply with downstream biology simulators.
    • Productionize foundation model interfaces, including transformer-based LLMs and diffusion/auto-regressive architectures, with an emphasis on biological data modalities (DNA, RNA, protein, etc.).
    • Collaborate with research and product teams to enable virtual experiments powered by generative AI, including agentic workflows and user-facing tooling.
    • Support distillation, quantization, and routing strategies to optimize model throughput and enable multi-model orchestration.
    • Prioritize observability, reliability, and safety in generative workflows through better logging, traceability, and rollback mechanisms.
    • Ensure scalability and automation throughout the model lifecycle: training, testing, deployment, and adaptation.
    • Automate everything.
Qualifications
    • M.S. or equivalent practical experience in MLOps, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
    • 2+ years of experience developing, deploying, and evaluating LLMs or generative models (transformers, diffusion models, VAEs, autoregressive architectures, etc.).
    • Proficiency with deep learning research and production stacks, such as PyTorch, HuggingFace Transformers & Accelerate, or Megatron-LM/DeepSpeed.
    • Strong programming skills in Python, with experience developing model services and backend APIs (Flask, FastAPI, or similar).
    • Familiarity with GPU-accelerated tools (e.g., CUDA, cuDNN, Triton) and profilers (PyTorch Profiler, Nsight Systems, TensorBoard)
    • Familiarity with resource coordination platforms (e.g., SLURM, Kubernetes), and managed solutions (Vertex AI, SageMaker, OCI Data Science)
    • Familiarity with ML automation frameworks (e.g. Kubeflow, Argo Workflows, Apache Airflow, Metaflow).
    • Expertise in cloud computing (GCP, OCI, AWS).
    • Strong software engineering practices: testing, version control, CI/CD pipelines.
    • Ability to work in a fast-moving research environment, productionizing new models as they become available.
Preferred Qualifications
    • Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field. Experience in life sciences or healthcare is a plus.
    • Experience with biological data modalities (e.g., DNA, RNA, protein sequences, cell imaging).
    • Prior work on multimodal or multiscale models across text, sequences, images, or structure.
    • Background in model distillation, quantization, and memory/latency optimization.
    • Knowledge of RESTful API design and data security.
    • Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially across research, product, and engineering.
    • Deep curiosity about biology and excitement to build tools that democratize access to scientific exploration.
