Software Engineer - Core Infrastructure

Job Description

Genesis Therapeutics is building a world-class computational team to solve problems in drug discovery through machine learning, biophysical simulation, and computational chemistry. We are looking for an Infrastructure Engineer that is excited to help develop new medicines and play a critical role in building out our AI platform.


You Will

  • Work on our infrastructure team to maintain and grow our multi-cloud compute infrastructure that supports our ML model training, computational chemistry research, and ongoing drug discovery efforts

  • Build out our configuration and procedures for monitoring, resource allocation, and deployment automation, as we continue to grow our autoscaling compute clusters to handle larger workloads

  • Work on orchestration scheduling framework to increase our execution throughput, reliability, and compute utilization across heterogeneous pipelines


You Are

  • 5+ years of experience building and maintaining cloud infrastructure at scale, e.g. within AWS or GCP

  • Proficient with Python, Bash, Terraform, Ray and Kubernetes

  • Ideally, experience building and maintaining compute clusters running distributed ML training jobs with 1,000+ GPUs

  • Nice to have: hands-on experience with physical hardware + datacenter management


What We Offer

  • The opportunity to work on high impact infrastructure that is used to accelerate the discovery of new medicines

  • A world-class, tight-knit team of good-hearted people across software, machine learning, computational chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and biology

  • Competitive salary and equity. Medical, dental, and vision insurance, and a 401(k) program

About Genesis Molecular AI

Genesis Molecular AI – headquartered in Burlingame, CA, with a fully integrated laboratory in San Diego and offices in New York – is pioneering foundation models for molecular AI to unlock a new era of drug design and development. We are using a proprietary state-of-the-art generative and predictive AI platform called GEMS (Genesis Exploration of Molecular Space), to accelerate and optimize small molecule drug discovery. The GEMS platform integrates AI and physics into industry-leading models to generate and optimize drug molecules, including the breakthrough generative diffusion model Pearl for structure prediction. GEMS accelerates hit ID through lead optimization and candidate selection by generating promising molecules for synthesis and experimental testing, and iterating this process through cycles of AI-enabled discovery and optimization. We have leveraged GEMS to build an internal pipeline with multiple programs against high-value targets, including data-poor and canonically undruggable targets where GEMS is uniquely advantaged. In addition, Genesis has signed AI platform collaborations across a range of therapeutic areas including Gilead (2024), and Incyte (2025). Genesis has raised over $300M in funding from top AI, technology and biotech investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Rock Springs Capital, T. Rowe Price, Fidelity, Radical Ventures, NVentures (NVIDIA's VC arm), BlackRock, and Menlo Ventures.
