About the opportunity

Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine is seeking a Senior Data Scientist dedicated to our Biologics Discovery organization. This role sits within our Data, Data Science & Artificial Intelligence team (DDSAI) and partners closely with our In Silico Discovery (ISD) organization - the group that builds the molecular design and property-prediction models (for example, developability, affinity and binding, and other molecular-property and liability-risk models) that guide which biologic molecules to design, make, and advance. ISD owns core molecular model development; you will build the data-facing ML capabilities (featurization, model-ready datasets, evaluation frameworks, and applied models on assay and sequence data) that make ISD's models faster to build and better to trust.

This position will be based at one of our office locations in either Spring House, PA (strongly preferred), Titusville, NJ, or Raritan, NJ, USA; or Madrid, Spain. (No remote option.)

Please note that this role is available across multiple countries and may be posted under different requisition numbers to comply with local requirements. While you are welcome to apply to any or all of the postings, we recommend focusing on the specific country(s) that align with your preferred location(s):

USA - Requisition Number: R-095854

Spain - Requisition Number: R-096793

Why this role matters: Biologics Discovery is generating rich, fast-growing data across assays, sequences, and modalities, and the opportunity now is to make that data fully model-ready and seamlessly available for ML. This role ensures biologics data is structured for training, and that applied ML on discovery data helps scientists prioritize molecules, flag risks, and generate hypotheses earlier - strengthening the interface to ISD's models rather than duplicating them.

Position Summary

You will design robust featurization and dataset curation, build and evaluate applied models on biologics assay, biophysical, and sequence/construct data, and define evaluation frameworks that keep models trustworthy. You operate at the interface between our data-generating and data-infrastructure partners and In Silico Discovery (ISD), ensuring the datasets and features you create strengthen ISD's molecular property models. This is an opportunity to shape how AI learns from every biologics experiment.

Key Responsibilities:

Featurization & Model-Ready Data

• Develop featurization and model-ready datasets from antibody/protein sequence, construct, assay, and biophysical data.
• Work with data engineers to specify the features, labels, and levels of aggregation that models need, preserving raw representations where information matters.
• Curate, document, and version datasets so modeling is reproducible and traceable.

Applied ML & Evaluation

• Develop featurization and model-ready datasets from antibody/protein sequence, construct, assay, and biophysical data.
• Work with data engineers to specify the features, labels, and levels of aggregation that models need, preserving raw representations where information matters.
• Curate, document, and version datasets so modeling is reproducible and traceable.

Partnership, Rigor & Growth

• Collaborate with ISD to hand off standardized, traceable training datasets and align on where Data Science enables versus where ISD owns modeling.
• Partner with Discovery scientists to frame ML problems around real decision points in the design-make-test-learn (DMTL) cycle.
• Work closely with ontology and MLOps colleagues so datasets carry consistent semantics and models move reliably from development into use.
• Champion reproducibility, documentation, and responsible AI.

Why This Role Is Unique

This is an opportunity to apply ML where it truly moves the needle in biologics discovery - grounded in real assay and sequence data, tightly partnered with world-class molecular modeling, and with real room to grow your scope, technical leadership, and impact as you build a track record of delivery.

Qualifications:
Required

• Master's or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Statistics, or a related field.
• At least 2 years of applied ML experience, including model development, evaluation, and dataset curation on complex scientific or biomedical data.
• Strong proficiency with Python and the modern ML stack (e.g., PyTorch, scikit-learn) and SQL.
• Experience turning complex, heterogeneous experimental data into robust features and training sets, with exposure to cloud training and data infrastructure.
• Sound understanding of evaluation, validation, and the risks of leakage and distribution shift.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with experimental scientists and modeling partners in a matrixed R&D environment.

Preferred

• Experience with biologics, antibody/protein sequence models, or protein language models.
• Experience with active learning, Bayesian optimization, or sequence-based generative models for molecular design.
• Familiarity with biophysical/assay data and developability endpoints.
• Experience with MLOps, experiment tracking, and model monitoring.
• Familiarity with how ontologies or knowledge graphs support data reuse and AI-ready datasets.

This position will be based at one of our office locations in either Spring House, PA (strongly preferred), Titusville, NJ, or Raritan, NJ, USA; or Madrid, Spain. (No remote option.)
