There are so many reasons to join us.

If you're hungry to build a varied and meaningful career in a community of brilliant and diverse minds to make a real difference, there's only one choice. Principal Machine Learning Scientist The Principal Machine Learning Scientist will develop novel machine learning algorithms and workflows for accelerating early-stage drug discovery. In this role, you are responsible for constructing, studying, and training algorithms that learn from complex, high-dimensional data to uncover patterns and develop practical predictive models and applications.

Involves utilizing various techniques, such as random forests, deep learning, and neural networks, to enhance the predictive capabilities of algorithms, particularly in natural language processing and machine perception. Focuses on simulating human learning activities, improving system performance through data analysis, and developing deep learning frameworks and systems that operate independently of explicit programming instructions. By continuously refining models and exploring new methodologies, contributes to innovative solutions that leverage machine learning for diverse applications.

YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES The primary responsibilities of the Principal Machine Learning Scientist are to: Develop, evaluate, and apply machine learning algorithms and workflows for accelerating early-stage drug discovery, including but not limited to (i) de-novo design of biomolecules, (ii) assessment of target druggability across therapeutic modalities (iii) design of drug delivery systems, (iv) identification of novel druggable pockets and epitopes, (vi) characterization of protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions; Contribute to the implementation, validation, and improvement of machine learning tools and software solutions that support drug discovery activities; Identify opportunities for accelerating ongoing drug discovery projects with internal and external AI capabilities; Communicate, educate, and engage with a broad set of stakeholders (chemists, biologists, computational/data scientists, R&D leadership) on the state of technology and the progress of key internal initiatives. Engage with the broader scientific community through publications, talks, and open-source; Keep up to date with the latest advances in AI-driven modeling of biomolecular structure and dynamics. WHO YOU ARE Bayer seeks an incumbent who possesses the following: Required Qualifications: Ph.D
