FutureHouse is a philanthropically-funded moonshot focused on building an AI Scientist. Our 10-year mission is to build semi-autonomous AIs that can scale scientific research, to accelerate the pace of discovery and to provide world-wide access to cutting-edge scientific, medical, and engineering expertise. At Future House, we're not just envisioning the future; we're building it.
We are seeking exceptionally creative, ambitious, and productive individuals to join our team as software engineers. Ideal candidates will be collaborators with our existing team of researchers and engineers, leveraging their software skills to implement new systems that help FutureHouse scale and set the state-of-the-art in AI-for-science research. Candidates should be comfortable writing code while also thinking at a systems level for deploying their work.
This role is based in our San Francisco, CA office.
Responsibilities :
- Collaborate as part of a team with other members of technical staff to implement new AI systems that can solve important scientific problems.
- Come up with new ideas, identify and resolve challenges, and figure out how to maximize performance across a wide range of benchmarks.
Requirements :
Strong foundation in computer science.Proficient in programming languages such as Python, and open to mastering new technologies as needed.Experience in the operations and deployment of database-backed and asynchronous applications.Demonstrated ability to solve challenging problems and implement solutions efficiently.Experience with complex ETL and data pipeline architectures is a plus.Experience with LLMs for training or inference is a plus.Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in a dynamic, multidisciplinary team environment.Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.What we offer :
We are working on interesting fundamental problems in science. You'll have unique access to working on long-term mission driven problems like how to design AI systems that improve the speed of research.We have a ton of resources, including wet lab, compute, etc.We publish our work.Our headquarters in Dogpatch (SF) is super cool.And also the normal HR stuff :
