JOB SUMMARY
Iambic Therapeutics is seeking an exceptional scientific and technology leader to to lead the design, build, and adoption of agentic AI workflows across small-molecule drug discovery programs - driving efficiency in both internal research and external partnerships. The role will also co-lead a cross-functional initiative to build the Iambic Lab of the Future: an integrated framework in which AI-driven molecular design, automated high-throughput experimental workflows, and real-time data acquisition operate as a unified system. This is a foundational leadership role at the intersection of AI, drug discovery, and experimental science. This will be a hybrid position, based out of our San Diego Headquarters.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Lead the technical roadmap and day-to-day execution for agentic AI workflows that accelerate small-molecule discovery across Iambic's internal pipeline and portfolio of external collaborations.
Lead the design, build, and deployment of multi-step agentic systems that integrate ML-based molecular design (including through use of NeuralPLexer, Enchant and related systems) with automated decision-making loops for hypothesis generation, compound prioritization, and experimental triage.
