AI Platform Engineer

Nabla Bio is building AI capable of generating biomolecules on demand to probe and treat disease. By combining cutting-edge AI with experimental systems that reflect how drugs behave in humans, we're designing new kinds of medicines "” targeting biology conventional tools can't reach, and in drug formats built for disease precision, safety, and human impact. Backed by premier investors like Radical and Khosla Ventures, we have forged significant partnerships with leading pharma companies such as AstraZeneca, Takeda, and Bristol Myers Squibb.The RoleWe're hiring a senior engineer to build core infrastructure and tools that connect our AI models to real-world use. You'll work across the full stack "” front-end, back-end, and ML infrastructure "” to build systems that enable internal scientists and external partners to run automated design cycles, streamline bioinformatic workflows, and accelerate feedback loops between AI and the lab.This is a high-impact, hands-on role that directly supports our AI and wet-lab scientists, collaborators, and pharma partners. You'll build APIs, dashboards, and inference pipelines that turn frontier AI models into production-grade tools for drug design. It's a rare opportunity to build these systems with real-world, large-scale experimental feedback (1 million drug designs measured every month). See our papers for examples of our work [1][2], and their coverage in Science Magazine and Endpoints News.This is an in-person role in Cambridge, MA. You will:Build and maintain user-facing applications (UIs, APIs, and dashboards) for running biologics design workflowsDevelop robust ML inference systems to expose our models through scalable back-end servicesCollaborate with scientists to understand pain points and ship high-leverage toolsOwn full-stack development from prototype to production, including deployment and observabilityLeverage modern AI dev tooling to move fast and stay focused on high-value workQualifications5+ years of experience as a full-stack, ML infra, or platform engineerExperience building backend systems that serve ML models in productionStrong frontend development skills (React, TypeScript, etc.)Deep fluency in Python; familiarity with cloud-native tools and containerization (Kubernetes, Docker)Strong product taste, sense, and ability to partner with scientists and AI researchersHigh agency and a track record of shipping quickly with qualityWhat We OfferA fast-moving environment where you can build and ship tools that impact real drug programsThe opportunity to shape how cutting-edge AI is used by scientists and partners in a deeply integrated wayAccess to modern ML models and wet-lab infrastructure for rapid experimentationA small, focused team where your engineering decisions have outsized impactHighly competitive salary, equity, and benefits packageNabla Bio is an equal opportunity employer.
