Senior Scientist (AI/ML)

At Regeneron, we use science and innovation to develop life-changing medicines for people with serious diseases. We are seeking a Senior Scientist (AI/ML) to join our tech-dev research team at the Regeneron Tarrytown location. The Scientist will be dedicated to incorporating cutting-edge generative AI for biomolecule design and optimization and collaborating with a cross-functional team in a closed-loop cycle to bridge artificial intelligence technology and therapeutic development in multiple diseases.

This position offers the opportunity to contribute to a fast-growing, science-driven organization making a meaningful difference to patients worldwide.

Location: Tarrytown – Onsite 4 days and 1 day Remote

This role might be a fit for you if:

• Apply and tailor state-of-the-art generative foundation models for biomolecule (protein, antibody, small molecules and nucleic acid) design and optimization
• Work with different types of experimental datasets (curation, distillation, encoding) for model training, fine-tuning and optimization, and specifically in model learning and adaptation incorporating feedback data from downstream experimental validation assays
• Work closely with web lab teams and clinicians for closed-loop AI model development and inference

The role requires:

• PhD in one of the following fields: Computational Biology, Bioengineering, Bioinformatics, Systems Biology, Computer Sciences, Mathematics, Engineering, or other related fields
• 2+ years of experience of utilizing AI for biomolecule (proteins, antibodies or other molecules) research;
• Previous experience, background or knowledge in structural biology and/or biochemistry is a plus
• Familiar with cutting-edge generative AI foundation models (with applications in biomolecules)
• Proficiency in one of the commonly used programming languages, such as R, Python, Perl, Java, or Linux

• Self-motivated, passionate about computational data, and conduct research collaboratively in a team setting
