About the role

  • Engineer-scientist in Frontier AI developing AI-powered tools for scientific document authoring. Collaborate with teams to innovate and improve scientific communication and documentation.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement AI agents for scientific document authoring, including literature synthesis, citation management, and figure/table generation
  • Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems over scientific corpora, ELNs, and internal knowledge bases to ground AI outputs in factual content
  • Develop domain-specific fine-tuning and prompt engineering strategies for chemistry, biology, and pharmacology content
  • Create tools for automated quality checking: scientific accuracy, consistency, formatting compliance, and plagiarism detection
  • Build multi-agent workflows that coordinate literature search, data extraction, drafting, and revision cycles
  • Build production-grade authoring applications with robust software engineering practices (version control, testing, CI/CD)
  • Deploy scalable services on cloud-native infrastructure (Kubernetes, AWS) with appropriate guardrails for scientific content
  • Partner with scientists, medical writers, and regulatory teams to integrate AI authoring tools into real workflows
  • Represent Frontier AI in internal forums and external AI/NLP research communities
  • Evaluate external vendors, open-source tools, and academic collaborations for scientific authoring capabilities

Requirements

  • BS in Computer Science, Chemical sciences, Bioinformatics, or related discipline with demonstrated scientific domain exposure
  • Experience applying NLP/LLM techniques to text generation, summarization, or information extraction (including industry post-doc)
  • Hands-on experience with LLM application development (prompt engineering, RAG architectures, agent frameworks)
  • Experience with ML/NLP frameworks (PyTorch, HuggingFace, LangChain, LlamaIndex)
  • Qualified applicants must be authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis.
  • Experience with scientific document formats (LaTeX, XML/JATS, regulatory submission standards)
  • Strong software engineering skills: production-quality Python, version control, testing, CI/CD (GitHub portfolio a plus)
  • Familiarity with biomedical NLP (PubMed, chemical NER, ontologies like MeSH or ChEBI)
  • Working knowledge of vector databases and semantic search (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector)
  • Publications in relevant ML/NLP venues (ACL, KDD, NeurIPS)

Benefits

  • eligibility to participate in a company-sponsored 401(k)
  • pension
  • vacation benefits
  • eligibility for medical, dental, vision and prescription drug benefits
  • flexible benefits (e.g., healthcare and/or dependent day care flexible spending accounts)
  • life insurance and death benefits
  • certain time off and leave of absence benefits
  • well-being benefits (e.g., employee assistance program, fitness benefits, and employee clubs and activities)
