Senior Research Scientist, Machine Learning (BioFM)

About Us

Deep Genomics is at the forefront of using artificial intelligence to transform drug discovery. Our proprietary AI platform decodes the complexity of RNA biology to identify novel drug targets, mechanisms, and therapeutics inaccessible through traditional methods. With expertise spanning machine learning, bioinformatics, data science, engineering, and drug development, our multidisciplinary team in Toronto and Cambridge, MA is revolutionizing how new medicines are created.

Opportunity

We are seeking an exceptional and creative Senior/Staff Machine Learning Scientist to lead and innovate within our core AI research team, specifically focusing on the creative building of Biological Foundation Models (BioFMs). You will pioneer novel deep learning architectures and pre-training paradigms that learn the fundamental language of the genome and cellular biology. Rather than just applying out-of-the-box ML to biological datasets, you will design the next generation of BioFMs from tackling complex -omics data at scale. If you are a first-principles thinker excited to bridge advanced ML with genome biology to solve high-impact, frontier problems in human health and drug discovery, this is a unique opportunity.
