Research Scientist - Computational Chemistry
We offer opportunities to do your life’s work while helping solve one of the most important technical and moral challenges of our time.
Full-time, in-office in Emeryville, California. Compensation includes equity.
Our mosquito work
Build the computational chemistry layer that connects molecular structure, physicochemical properties, formulation context, and observed mosquito behavior. Your work should help us choose more informative compounds to test, not merely explain results after the fact.
Key Responsibilities
• Develop molecular representations and predictive models for compound effects on mosquito landing and related behavioral endpoints
• Combine chemical structures and descriptors with formulation, dose, assay, environmental, and behavioral data
• Design prospective evaluations that measure whether model-ranked compounds outperform conventional selection approaches
• Quantify uncertainty, identify out-of-domain predictions, and propose experiments that distinguish competing chemical hypotheses
• Partner with
