About the Role
As a Senior/Staff Cheminformatics Scientist you will play a pivotal role in building and deploying computational tools (algorithms, user interfaces, databases, and applications) that power Chemify’s world-class integrated chemical platform.
In this role, you will design, implement, and optimize cheminformatics algorithms to drive retrosynthetic route planning, reaction prediction, and chemical space exploration. Equally, you will contribute as a full stack developer, ensuring that these research innovations are transformed into robust, scalable software solutions for internal use and external deployment.
Collaboration will be central to your success: you will work closely with cheminformatics, software engineering, process engineering, and synthetic chemistry teams to advance the development of the most automated, efficient, and versatile chemical manufacturing laboratory in the world.
