What is a generative AI drug discovery?

A Generative AI Drug Discovery job involves using artificial intelligence models to design and optimize new drug candidates. Professionals in this field leverage machine learning, deep learning, and generative algorithms to predict molecular structures, enhance drug properties, and accelerate early-stage drug discovery. They collaborate with scientists, bioinformaticians, and pharmaceutical experts to improve drug development efficiency and reduce time-to-market. These roles typically require expertise in AI, chemistry, and biology, along with experience in handling large datasets and computational modeling.

What does a generative AI drug discovery professional do?

A Generative AI Drug Discovery professional is typically responsible for designing, developing, and implementing machine learning models that generate and optimize potential drug candidates. On a daily basis, this may involve analyzing large biological datasets, collaborating closely with medicinal chemists and biologists, and iteratively refining AI algorithms to improve the accuracy of predictions. The role often includes presenting findings to cross-functional teams and contributing to scientific publications or patent applications. Working in this role requires balancing technical rigor with creativity, as well as the ability to adapt models to real-world experimental feedback.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in generative AI drug discovery?

To excel in Generative AI Drug Discovery, you need a strong background in computational biology, machine learning (especially deep learning), cheminformatics, and a relevant degree such as a PhD or MSc in bioinformatics, computer science, or pharmaceutical sciences. Experience with AI frameworks (such as TensorFlow or PyTorch), molecular modeling software, and familiarity with drug discovery databases are highly valuable. Creative problem-solving, effective collaboration skills, and a passion for lifelong learning help professionals succeed in multidisciplinary research teams. These competencies are crucial for developing novel AI models that accelerate drug candidate identification and enhance the effectiveness of pharmaceutical research.

Job description

About SPOC Biosciences

SPOC Biosciences is building the next-generation drug discovery & lab-in-the-loop protein design platform that integrates on-chip protein synthesis, high-resolution kinetic measurements and best in class engineering & automation. Our goal is to supercharge the discovery of next-generation biologics and accelerate AI drug design.

We collaborate with leading pharmaceutical companies, AI drug discovery startups, and academic institutions to advance therapeutics development.

Role Overview

We are seeking a motivated and hands-on Research Scientist (PhD or Postdoctoral level) with strong training in protein biochemistry and molecular biology. This role requires independent scientific judgment, strong assay development skills, and ability to work in a fast-paced startup environment. This role is ideal for recent PhD graduates or postdocs who are excited to apply rigorous experimental science to AI-enabled drug discovery.

You will work closely with senior scientists to:

  • Design and execute high throughput protein characterization experiments
  • Develop and optimize binding assays (including SPR and related platforms)
  • Generate high quality quantitative interaction data sets
  • Contribute to validation of AI-designed protein and antibody binders
  • Analyze experimental data and produce high quality visualization and reports
Required Qualifications
  • PhD in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Protein Engineering, or related field (recent graduates with relevant experience are encouraged to apply)
  • Wet lab experience in molecular biology and biochemistry, with particular emphasis on independent assay design
  • Experience studying or computational modeling of protein-protein or protein-antibody interactions
  • Strong foundation in experimental design and data analysis
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Postdoctoral research experience is welcomed but not required.
Nice to Have
  • Experience with Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) or other quantitative binding techniques
  • Familiarity with high-throughput assay development
  • Exposure to De novo AI design of protein or antibody binders
  • Expression and characterization of membrane proteins and/or PTMs
  • Computational protein modelling and Analysis
  • Basic programming (Python, R, or similar) & use of AI coding tools
What Youโ€™ll Gain
  • Direct experience at the intersection of experimental protein science and AI-driven design
  • Mentorship from experienced scientists and startup leadership
  • Exposure to collaborations with pharma and leading AI drug discovery companies
  • Opportunity to contribute to publications and high-impact scientific outputs
  • Fast learning curve in a growing biotech startup
