Job description

About

Edison Scientific builds and commercializes AI agents for science. Scientific discovery moves too slowly, and autonomous AI agents are how we intend to fix that. We're assembling a team of top researchers and engineers across AI and biology to build an AI scientist.

Role

As a Frontend Engineer, you will help build our "integrated research environment" and design a UX that empowers scientists to integrate AI into their discovery process.

This role is on-site at our San Francisco office in the Dogpatch neighborhood. Our office is a converted warehouse with high ceilings, open space, and a team that genuinely believes in what they're building.

This position is part of the Platform team. 

Responsibilities
  • Architect, design, implement, and optimize the front-end for our scientific discovery platform with a focus on performance and scalable UI patterns.
  • Translate complex AI-driven scientific workflows into clear, intuitive, and well-signposted user experiences.
  • Work closely with product and research teams to anticipate user needs and features.
  • Develop and maintain a modular design system.
  • Profile and optimize rendering performance, asset loading, and interaction responsiveness across browsers and devices.
  • Integrate real-time data visualizations and dynamic interfaces to empower scientists on our platform.
  • Conduct code reviews, enforce engineering best practices, and contribute to front-end architecture decisions.
Qualifications
  • 4+ years of professional experience in front-end engineering, with a track record of shipping performant, complex, and data visualization-heavy web applications.
  • Proficiency with React (preferred) or a comparable framework, along with deep experience in JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Strong understanding of browser rendering pipelines, performance profiling, and optimization techniques.
  • Experience with real-time data handling (e.g., WebSockets, GraphQL subscriptions) and interactive visualizations (e.g., D3.js, Deck.gl, Three.js).
  • Ability to transform technical and scientific requirements into elegant, usable visualizations & interfaces.
  • Experience building design systems and reusable component libraries.
  • Knowledge of accessibility standards and responsive design principles.
Bonus points for:
  • Experience with scientific data visualization, computational biology, or AI/ML tools.
  • Familiarity with back-end integration patterns for high-throughput data pipelines.
