About DropCode DropCode is building the data engine for protein function. Starting with enzymes, we use our patented droplet microfluidics platform to capture exponentially more data on protein function than conventional methods, linking genotype to phenotype at per-droplet resolution, making every droplet a micro test tube. This data fuels machine learning models that learn in ever greater detail how sequence determines function. Our wedge is enzyme engineering for biocatalysis and industrial biotechnology, but our ambition is to make DropCode the definitive platform for protein function prediction. We are Cambridge PhDs with deep expertise across microfluidics, biochemistry, machine learning, optics, and engineering. We believe the language of biology is machine learning, and that the fastest path to transformative models is not just better AI, it is better inputs. The Role We are looking for an exceptional computational scientist to lead our machine learning and protein modelling efforts. You will own the sequence-function modelling stack end to end: from processing large-scale functional datasets generated in our microfluidic runs, to training and deploying generative and predictive models that drive the next round of experiments. You will work in a tight loop with the biology and engineering teams, turning quantitative phenotypic data into closed-loop active learning systems that continuously improve our models. This is a foundational role. You will be building the ML infrastructure from the ground up, and your architectural choices will shape DropCode for years. What You'll Do Design and train sequence-function models on deep mutational scanning datasets and high-throughput screening outputs from our microfluidics platform Develop and iterate generative models (transformers, diffusion models, or equivalent) for enzyme sequence design and optimisation Build closed-loop active learning pipelines that couple ML predictions with experimental design, shortening the design-build-test-learn cycle Model protein fitness landscapes, including epistatic interactions, to navigate high-dimensional sequence space intelligently Partner with the biology team to define the data collection strategy and ensure experimental outputs are ML-ready Establish best practices for model evaluation, benchmarking, and uncertainty quantification in the context of functional prediction Own and grow the computational stack as the team scales What We're Looking For Demonstrated contribution to a meaningful breakthrough in protein design or sequence-function modelling Proven hands on experience with protein language models or generative models applied to biological sequences Deep familiarity with deep mutational scanning, large-scale functional datasets, or comparable high-throughput data modalities Strong understanding of fitness landscape theory and epistasis in the context of sequence optimisation Experience building active learning or Bayesian optimisation systems that integrate ML with experimental feedback Excitement at the prospect of working with large volumes of proprietary, quantitative functional data unavailable anywhere else Comfortable operating in the ambiguity of early stage R&D and motivated by the challenge of building foundational infrastructure PhD in machine learning, computational biology, biophysics, or a related field (or equivalent depth of experience) Who You Are You are frustrated by the slow, artisanal nature of current biological engineering and believe the field needs a step change in data scale and quality. You think quantitatively, treat every experiment as a data point for a model, and have strong opinions about what it takes to build the best protein design systems in the world. You thrive in collaborative, fast moving environments where the pace is set by scientific urgency, not process.

You will have a particular focus on a flagship programme funded by FCDO that aims to accelerate global health research through AI Co-Scientist tools. This programme includes developing a benchmarking framework for evaluating AI Co-Scientist tools, running real-world demonstration projects in areas such as mental health therapeutics, antimicrobial resistance, and malaria vector control, and establishing a secretariat to support partners in adopting AI-for-science workflows.This is a hands-on role ideal for an applied researcher (post-PhD or equivalent) who enjoys experimentation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and translating emerging AI capabilities into real scientific workflows. You will own specific workstreams within the AI4Science portfolio, from experimental design through execution and publication, while collaborating closely with senior technical leadership and external partners. You will develop and test AI-assisted scientific workflows, and contribute to the growing evidence base for how AI can accelerate biomedical discovery. You will also contribute to the wider AI4Science portfolio, including work on vaccine development and other projects as they arise. This role does not necessarily require developing new foundation models, but does require strong fluency in applying, evaluating, and orchestrating modern AI systems (including LLMs and agentic workflows) specifically for scientific research.If you're a researcher who wants to work at the cutting edge of AI and biomedical science, with the opportunity to see your work translate into real-world impact for underserved communities, this could be the role for you. Responsabilities : Contribute to and, where appropriate, lead research activities across multiple projects within the AI4Science portfolio, including: Designing, building, and iterating benchmark evaluations for AI Co-Scientist tools, covering tasks such as knowledge retrieval, reasoning, robustness, rediscovery, and adversarial testing. Supporting the delivery of real-world demonstration projects (e.g., mental health therapeutics, AMR susceptibility testing, malaria vector control), including facilitating expert workshops, running AI-assisted hypothesis generation exercises, and coordinating small-scale lab validation studies with partners. Contributing to a landscape mapping exercise to catalogue and functionally test available AI Co-Scientist tools. Practical coordination support to help FCDO partners articulate research questions, select appropriate AI tools, and execute guided research sprints. Contributing to other AI4Science projects, such as work on identifying novel correlates of protection to accelerate vaccine development using agentic AI workflows. Apply and develop quantitative research methods (e.g., experimental study design, statistical analysis) and technical AI methods (e.g., prompt engineering, agent architecture design, evaluation method development) both independently and in collaboration with partners. Contribute to the technical writing of study protocols, donor reports, peer-reviewed publications, and the publicly accessible AI4Science Playbook. Support the development and maintenance of collaborations with academic, industry, and Global South research partners. Project Support & Coordination Support the Deputy Director in ensuring the timely delivery of project outputs, including compliance with PATH and donor research ethics and data protection standards. Contribute to donor reporting and, as needed, serve as a technical point of contact for partners on specific project workstreams. Collaborate with colleagues across the AI initiative (including the Health and Regulatory Policy teams) and the wider organisation to advance cross-cutting objectives. Learning & Professional Development Stay current with the rapidly evolving AI-for-science landscape and proactively share insights with the team. Contribute to PATH's thought leadership in AI and global health, including through conference presentations, blog posts, and other external engagement. As the team grows, provide informal mentorship and technical guidance to more junior colleagues or interns. Required Skills & Experience PhD (or equivalent research experience) in a relevant subject, such as computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, immunology, chemistry, or a related biomedical or quantitative discipline. Demonstrable coding skills (Python preferred) sufficient to comfortably carry out independent AI research and prototyping, including experience working with large language models, AI/ML pipelines, or agentic workflows. Familiarity with, or strong interest in, one or more of the following: AI benchmarking and evaluation, natural language processing, agentic AI architectures. Experience in molecular design, drug discovery, and/or infectious disease biology is a significant plus. At least one peer-reviewed publication (or equivalent evidence of research output). A Passion for Applied Research You are motivated by research that has a real-world impact. You're excited by the idea of your work contributing to new treatments, better diagnostics, or more effective vector control - not just another paper. Rigour and Resourcefulness You can design sound experiments, handle messy data, and troubleshoot when things don't work as expected. You're comfortable working across disciplines and picking up new methods quickly. Strong Communication Skills You can explain complex technical work clearly to non-specialist audiences, write well, and collaborate effectively with researchers from diverse backgrounds and geographies. Comfort with Uncertainty The AI-for-science field is evolving fast, and this programme is deliberately exploratory. You thrive in environments where the path forward isn't always clear and you're energised (rather than daunted) by that. A Collaborative Mindset You work well as part of a small, agile team embedded in a large organisation. You're willing to support colleagues, share credit, and contribute to a positive team culture. To be selected, you must have legal authorization to work in the UK.
