We are seeking a Machine Learning Scientist to join the Enchant team at Iambic Therapeutics. In this role, you will design and implement clinical fine-tuning of Enchant, our multimodal transformer model trained on a wide variety of biomedical data, pushing the boundaries of what large-scale foundation models can achieve in drug discovery.
This role spans data sourcing through to production deployment. You will identify, curate, and evaluate datasets that support prediction of relevant clinical endpoints (patient- and trial-level outcome modeling, safety/toxicity prediction, and PK/PD response modeling) and fine-tune Enchant to deliver critical clinical insights. This includes developing rigorous, leakage-resistant experimental frameworks, optimizing training, orchestrating runs at scale, and working with colleagues across ML and clinical functions to put these models into the hands of scientists making real therapeutic decisions.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Fine-tune large-scale multimodal transformer models for clinical and biomedical applications
Identify, characterize, and utilize datasets that can deliver insights into pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), toxicity, clinical adverse events, and clinical trial outcomes
Develop and apply rigorous experimental approaches that account for multiple sources of potential leakage (split, metadata, trial-family, temporal, ontological, arm-comparator, etc.)
Design and maintain benchmarking and evaluation frameworks that track model quality across models and tasks
Build models with appropriate calibration, uncertainty quantification, and clinically meaningful evaluation metrics.
Collaborate with ML and software engineering colleagues to deploy and operationalize models
Partner with clinical scientists and pharmacologists to ensure model development is grounded in drug discovery and development needs
Communicate results to internal teams, external partners, and at conferences
Generate high-quality research and engineering code: refactor, test, document, and package ML components to support team velocity
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
MS in chemistry, bio/chemical engineering, or a computational STEM field with 3+ years of relevant industry or research experience, or PhD or equivalent industry experience demonstrating comparable depth
Strong Python experience, including implementing and fine-tuning deep learning models
Demonstrated experience in clinical science or working with clinical datasets
Excellent Data Science skills (problem framing, data sourcing, extraction, cleaning, visualization, EDA, modeling, tuning, storytelling, etc.)
Enough independence to own a workstream from data ingestion through evaluation
Strong engineering habits: reproducible experimentation, appropriate control strategy, clean code, testing
Comfort working with modern ML infrastructure (e.g., Docker, CUDA, Kubernetes, experiment tracking such as Weights & Biases)
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Experience building and deploying clinically relevant prediction models
Familiarity with ClinicalTrials.gov/AACT data
Experience with MedDRA, pharmacovigilance, or adverse event data
Direct exposure to multi-task learning
Hands-on experience with agentic data extraction
HPC or large-scale computing experience

We are seeking a Machine Learning Scientist to join the Enchant team at Iambic Therapeutics. Our mission is to deliver better medicines through innovation in AI-based discovery technologies. In this role, you will research and develop post-training methods for Enchant - our multimodal transformer model trained on a wide variety of biomedical data - pushing the boundaries of what large-scale foundation models can achieve in drug discovery.
The role centers on designing and evaluating post-training approaches for large multimodal language models including supervised fine-tuning, parameter-efficient fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, preference or reward-based optimization, and other emerging post-training methods. You will develop rigorous evaluations and training infrastructure that make it possible to rapidly iterate on these approaches at scale and work closely with colleagues across machine learning, software engineering, and drug discovery to put powerful foundation models into the hands of scientists making real therapeutic decisions.
We are hiring across multiple levels and welcome candidates ranging from recent PhD graduates to experienced researchers with a strong publication or deployment record. This is a remote position, with the option to be on-site in our Boston office.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Research and develop post-training strategies for large-scale multimodal foundation models
Design reward functions, training objectives, data-generation strategies, and evaluation protocols for reinforcement learning and other post-training approaches applied to multimodal LLMs
Build systematic experimentation and hyperparameter optimization workflows to efficiently explore post-training recipes, model configurations, and training strategies
Develop and apply inference optimization techniques to support deployment in both high-throughput model evaluation and interactive discovery workflows
Design and maintain rigorous benchmarking and evaluation frameworks that measure model quality across modalities, downstream tasks, and scientific use cases
Collaborate with ML and software engineering colleagues to productionize models, evaluation systems, and inference services
Partner with computational chemists, medicinal chemists, and biologists to ensure model development and post-training objectives are grounded in drug discovery needs
Communicate results to internal teams, external partners, and at conferences
Write high-quality research and engineering code: refactor, test, document, and package ML components to support team velocity
QUALIFICATIONS
PhD in machine learning, computer science, computational chemistry, physics, or a related computational STEM field, or equivalent industry experience demonstrating comparable depth
Strong Python and PyTorch skills, including implementing, training, debugging and evaluating deep learning models end-to-end
Demonstrated experience training large-scale transformer models
Demonstrated experience in one or more of the following:
Reinforcement learning approaches such as RLHF, RLAIF, PPO, GRPO, RL with verifiable rewards, or related methods (strongly preferred)
Supervised fine-tuning, full-parameter fine-tuning, parameter-efficient fine-tuning (LoRA), or related methods
Systematic hyperparameter optimization or large-scale experimentation using tools such as Optuna, Ray Tune, or similar frameworks
Strong engineering practices: reproducible experimentation, clean code, testing, and performance-aware debugging
Comfort with modern ML infrastructure (e.g., Docker, CUDA, Kubernetes, experiment tracking tools such as Weights & Biases)
PREFERRED
Experience with multimodal or multi-task model architectures
Training and inference optimization (e.g., mixed precision, kernel optimization, quantization, distributed strategies)
Familiarity with biomedical, chemical, or biological data domains
Distributed training at scale
HPC or large-scale training operations experience
