About this role
Fullstack Software Engineer (Senior / Staff)
Genesis Molecular AI is building a world-class software team to solve problems in drug discovery through machine learning, biophysical simulation, and computational chemistry. We are looking for engineers excited to help develop new medicines and play a critical role in building out our software platform.
You will
Own and evolve the full-stack platform that computational chemists use daily, from data exploration and experiment management to real-time visualization, shipping AI-native workflows and modern interaction patterns that shorten the loop between hypothesis and insight
Build and expand tools for visualizing molecules and proteins, analyzing ML models, and managing complex chemical workflows
Partner with machine learning engineers and computational chemists to develop and productionize new computational methods for molecular property prediction
Scale our data infrastructure to handle billions of datapoints and thousands of parallel deep learning and molecular dynamics jobs
You are
A deep thinker who reasons from first principles, balances attention to detail with architectural thinking, and has an investigative curiosity to find the root cause of a problem
Comfortable owning problems across the entire stack - frontend interfaces, backend services, data pipelines, and infrastructure
Experienced shipping production code and driving projects end-to-end with minimal hand-holding
Excited to work at the intersection of software engineering, drug discovery, and machine learning
What we offer
The opportunity to work on high impact tools and products that are immediately deployed to accelerate the discovery of new medicines
Strong technical coworkers in AI, software, and chemistry, who all have a powerful mix of intellectual curiosity and humility. The team reads and discusses 1-2 machine learning or chemistry papers every week to stay on top of the field and inspire new ideas
Competitive salary and equity. Medical, dental, and vision insurance, and a 401(k) program

About Genesis Molecular AI
Genesis Molecular AI - headquartered in Burlingame, CA, with a fully integrated laboratory in San Diego and offices in New York - is pioneering foundation models for molecular AI to unlock a new era of drug design and development. We are using a proprietary state-of-the-art generative and predictive AI platform called GEMS (Genesis Exploration of Molecular Space), to accelerate and optimize small molecule drug discovery. The GEMS platform integrates AI and physics into industry-leading models to generate and optimize drug molecules, including the breakthrough generative diffusion model Pearl for structure prediction. GEMS accelerates hit ID through lead optimization and candidate selection by generating promising molecules for synthesis and experimental testing, and iterating this process through cycles of AI-enabled discovery and optimization. We have leveraged GEMS to build an internal pipeline with multiple programs against high-value targets, including data-poor and canonically undruggable targets where GEMS is uniquely advantaged. In addition, Genesis has signed AI platform collaborations across a range of therapeutic areas including Gilead (2024), and Incyte (2025). Genesis has raised over $300M in funding from top AI, technology and biotech investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Rock Springs Capital, T. Rowe Price, Fidelity, Radical Ventures, NVentures (NVIDIA's VC arm), BlackRock, and Menlo Ventures.
