Grad Intern - Computational Chemistry (Summer 2027)

What You Will Do

We are looking for a summer intern to join the Computational Chemistry team in summer 2027. Computational chemistry is a key part of our drug discovery engine, helping move programs from target identification to drug development. During this program, you will develop and evaluate molecular property prediction models for predictive performance and interpretability, helping guide the discovery of small molecule therapeutics.

• Develop and evaluate machine learning models for molecular property prediction, measure predictive performance with suitable metrics, and explore ways to make these models accessible through conversational AI agents
• Apply model interpretability methods to see how molecular features influence predictions and explore structure-property relationships
• Work with interdisciplinary teams to carry the project through execution and implementation
• Review and summarize project-related literature
• Communicate findings and progress clearly to team members
• Document methods and analyses so the research can be reproduced

What You Can Expect of Us

We support your professional and personal growth and well-being, from competitive benefits to a collaborative culture.

• Build a network of colleagues that will last and grow throughout your time with us and beyond
• Bring your authentic self to work in a culture that values diversity of thought and experience and adapts to your strengths and possibilities
