Job description
Chemical Physics (Enhanced Sampling, MLIPs)
Bay Area preferred; exceptional remote candidates considered Full-Time
Startup salary + substantial equity
Job Description
We're looking for someone with strong expertise in molecular dynamics, enhanced sampling methods (e.g., metadynamics, umbrella sampling, replica exchange), free energy calculations, computational thermodynamics, deep learning, and force-field / neural network potential development. Experience with electronic structure methods (DFT) and statistical mechanics is a major plus.
What You'll Do
- Lead or contribute to MD, enhanced sampling, and free energy projects
- Develop and deploy high-accuracy force fields and neural network potentials
- Build deep learning models for molecular and materials prediction (PyTorch or similar)
- Write efficient scientific software in Python and/or C++
- Take ideas from theory to scalable implementation
Who You Are
- PhD in chemical physics, chemistry, physics, materials science, or related field
- Strong background in MD, enhanced sampling, free energy methods, force-field/NN-potential development, and deep learning for molecular systems
- Experience with electronic structure (DFT), statistical mechanics, or rare-event methods
- Proficient in scientific programming; parallel tools a plus
- Preferred: OpenMM, OpenFE, and training MLIPs (e.g., MACE, etc.)
Why Azulene Labs
- High-impact science with real-world consequences
- Significant equity as an early technical leader
- Deep-thinking, high-expectation environment
