BenevolentAI unites technology with human intelligence to re-engineer drug discovery and deliver life-changing medicines. We have developed the Benevolent Platform®, a drug discovery platform built on powerful data foundations with state of the art machine learning and AI technology. Our technology empowers scientists to decipher the vast and complex code underlying human biology, find new ways to treat disease and personalise medicines to patients. Benevolent has active in-house R&D drug programmes in disease areas such as neurodegeneration, immunology, oncology and inflammation and has research and commercial collaborations with leading pharmaceutical and research organisations. The company is headquartered in London with a research facility in Cambridge (UK) and a further office in New York.
We are an eclectic bunch at Benevolent, united by our belief that innovative thinking and purposeful technology can truly change outcomes for the better. Our mission is to re-engineer drug discovery and deliver life-changing medicines for patients in need and we do this by applying AI, machine learning and other advanced technologies to reinvent the ways drugs are discovered and developed. We strive to bring together unique skills and perspectives across biology, chemistry, engineering, AI research, informatics, precision medicine and drug discovery.
We are looking for an individual with a proven track record for working with internal teams and external CROs, generating and integrating plate-based pharmacology data from a variety of lab-based environments. If you are in a current lab-centric role, you will be looking for an opportunity to step out of the lab and develop in this area. Through your Pharmaceutical or CRO experience, you will have a thorough understanding of the data elements of preclinical drug discovery, demonstrated by your direct involvement in areas of compound-to-assay workflows, screen-data generation, ELN-data capture and data analysis, on platforms such as Dotmatics. You will have experience in setting up, running and supporting plate-based in vitro assays; assay design, development of primary screens, high content-assays, or equivalent applied knowledge from DMPK or toxicology/pathology type safety screening. You will also offer a clear interpretation of these data in providing support and advice to Project teams.
There is an option to be based out of our London office, or our Cambridge lab-site on the Babraham Research Campus. You will be a key member of our Discovery Enabling Team (DET), which operates as a cross-discipline team within BAI’s Drug Discovery(DD). Within DET, you will work with BAI colleagues at all sites, across a wide range of disciplines; including non-lab and lab-based scientists, research informaticians, machine learning and AI technologists. As an integral member of the team, you will manage DET-specific screen support for our Drug Discovery, and support and streamline data-capture across our AI-driven drug discovery pipeline (TargetID, HitID, LeadOp to Candidate Development). Your experience in working with internal researchers and external (CRO) partners will allow you to proactively manage the unique challenges that each presents. You will work with internal drug discovery scientists and CROs to directly advise, share your knowledge of assay set up and data capture, to ensure BAI generates quality-driven results that allow timely and clear decision making. You will help researchers set up pilot assays, QC-qualify, run and interpret their screens, as well as manage their datasets into Dotmatics ELNs.
Together, we envision a world in which no disease goes untreated. If you are benevolent, curious, want to tackle real world problems and are willing to embrace new ideas, hit that ‘apply’ button and join us.
It has come to our attention that unfortunately fraudsters have been falsely offering jobs and set-up fake interviews under the guise of being a Benevolent recruiter. We therefore advise you to be very stringent about who is reaching out to you. Any enquiry from our team will only be made via the email careers@benevolent.ai or an email from this domain @benevolent.ai. Please flag any suspicious contact request to hello@benevolent.ai
