About the role

We're looking for someone to build and apply foundational models of enzyme catalysis, with use cases across pharma manufacture, agriculture, and industry. This is pragmatic computational enzyme engineering: you'll build internal models, fine-tune external ones like Boltz, RFdiffusion, and LigandMPNN, and reach for classical biocatalysis methods where they fit. There's no fixed pipeline to inherit — you pick the stack per project and answer for it, and you'll see your designs go into real wet labs on commercial timelines.

What you'll bring

  • Experience driving projects from substrate to characterised design without waiting to be handed the next step
  • Scepticism about your own outputs — you'll flag a junk prediction rather than over-claim
