Senior AI/ML Engineer
About The Position
Prudentia Sciences is an AI-powered technology platform transforming how biopharma, biotech, and life sciences investors approach portfolio management, due diligence, and value/risk simulation. Our platform accelerates investment in breakthrough therapies by empowering biopharma to accelerate drug pipelines, maximize ROI, and achieve clinical and commercial success for greater patient impact; enabling strategic positioning of asset value during portfolio planning and dealmaking; and equipping investors with data-driven insights to optimize capital allocation in drug asset transactions. Backed by GV (Google Ventures), McKesson, SignalFire, Iaso Ventures, and Virtue, we're on a mission to unlock the full potential of pharmaceutical R&D by empowering decision-makers with real-time, data-driven insights. We’re looking for a driven, hands-on Senior ML/AI Engineer to help us push the boundaries of what's possible in AI-driven drug development. You’ll work on production-grade LLM-based systems, knowledge graphs, and machine learning pipelines—turning prototypes into powerful tools that make a real-world impact. You'll collaborate across teams to design, build, and deploy intelligent systems that enhance how life sciences organizations make critical decisions. If you love working on technically challenging problems with direct impact in healthcare—this is the role for you.
Requirements
- Bachelor's, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- Proven ability to build, train, and deploy ML and NLP models, especially those powered by LLMs and transformer architectures.
- Practical experience working with frameworks like LangChain for applications such as Q&A systems, chatbots, or document automation.
- Strong coding skills in Python and experience using Git/GitHub and CI/CD practices.
- Comfort working with ETL pipelines, relational and non-relational databases, and data platforms like Snowflake or Databricks.
- Familiarity with Big Data tools (e.g., Apache Spark) and experience orchestrating data workflows using tools like Apache Airflow.
- Experience with deploying ML models in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and using containerization/orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes.
- Strong problem-solving skills and an analytical mindset.
- Passion for continuous learning, rapid prototyping, and iterating based on user needs.
- Autonomous, self-starter attitude with a strong sense of ownership.
- Excellent communication skills—able to explain technical ideas clearly to non-technical audiences.
- Collaborative team player with a desire to build things that truly matter.
