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.

Your work will change lives. Including your own. The Impact You'll Make Recursion is a leading TechBio company that is transforming drug discovery by using AI and automation to find new medicines. Its powerful platform combines different technologies to create one of the world's largest proprietary collections of biological and chemical data. By running millions of lab experiments each week and using one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world, Recursion brings together technology, biology, and chemistry to revolutionize medicine. We are looking for an experienced and motivated scientist to join our computational physics team, which is essential for designing molecules in our pipeline by supporting active drug discovery projects. This team also develops and implements cutting edge methods to keep our platform at the forefront of computational sciences. In this role, you will: Lead the development and implementation of advanced computational physics methods into efficient and scalable workflows, to address challenging drug discovery problems and drive project success. Collaborate with software engineers and drug designers in multidisciplinary teams to deliver scientific solutions to complex technical problems. Keep up with the latest scientific developments, assess new technologies for their use in internal workflows, and devise plans for their implementation. Communicate your work to both internal and external audiences to guide decisions and contribute to the scientific community. The Team You'll Join You will become an essential member of the Computational Physics team, which supports several phases of drug discovery, from initial hypothesis to lead optimization. The team's goal is to build highly accurate and automated atomistic models and pipelines to obtain crucial molecular level insights for advancing drug candidates. We employ physics based and physics informed models, such as molecular dynamics simulations, absolute and relative binding free energy methods metadynamics, MM/PBSA, and quantum mechanical calculations, to enable cost effective and scalable structure based drug discovery. We work closely with design teams and collaborate with partners like the AI experts at the Frontier Hub, making our highly accurate methods more accessible and scalable for all. The Experience You'll Need PhD in Chemistry, Physics, Computational Chemistry, Computational Physics, or a related subject area. Excellent programming skills in Python for tool development. Proven track record in the development of molecular simulation or computational chemistry tools. Basic knowledge of drug discovery processes and the application of molecular simulations in this field. Experience in deploying and orchestrating large scale jobs using compute clusters or cloud based infrastructures. Working Location & Compensation: This is an office based, hybrid role in our London office. Employees are expected to work in the office at least 50% of the time. At Recursion, we believe that every employee should be compensated fairly. Based on the skill and level of experience required for this role, the estimated current annual base range for this role is £86,300 to £115,500. You will also be eligible for an annual bonus and equity compensation, as well as a comprehensive benefits package. The Values We Hope You Share We act boldly with integrity. We are unconstrained in our thinking, take calculated risks, and push boundaries, but never at the expense of ethics, science, or trust. We care deeply and engage directly. Caring means holding a deep sense of responsibility and respect - showing up, speaking honestly, and taking action. We learn actively and adapt rapidly. Progress comes from doing. We experiment, test, and refine, embracing iteration over perfection. We move with urgency because patients are waiting. Speed isn't about rushing but about moving the needle every day. We take ownership and accountability. Through ownership and accountability, we enable trust and autonomy-leaders take accountability for decisive action, and teams own outcomes together. We are One Recursion. True cross functional collaboration is about trust, clarity, humility, and impact. Through sharing, we can be greater than the sum of our individual capabilities.

About Maxion Maxion Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing antibody-based drugs for previously untreatable ion channel- and G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-driven diseases, including autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and cardiovascular disease. Maxion is developing a pipeline of potentially first- and best-in-class therapeutics using its proprietary KnotBody technology to generate potent, selective, and long-acting therapeutics by combining naturally occurring mini-proteins ('knottins') with antibodies using state-of-the-art phage and mammalian display technologies. Maxion was founded in 2020 by Dr John McCafferty (CTO) and Dr Aneesh Karatt-Vellatt (CSO). Dr McCafferty previously co-invented antibody phage display, which was the subject of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to his co-inventor Sir Gregory Winter. The Company is based near Cambridge, UK and is backed by international blue-chip investors.
