PythonMachine LearningPyTorchA/B TestingResearchLab ResearchCollaboration
About the role
- This is a research-oriented role for a computational physicist (or someone with an equivalent quantitative, simulation-heavy background).
- That collaboration is central to how we work.
- We also picked this problem deliberately.
Responsibilities
- Develop physics-based theoretical and computational models of phage-bacteria infection dynamics, applying numerical simulation, statistical mechanics, and optimization theory
- Design and implement numerical methods and software for large-scale simulation and analysis of these physical systems
- Perform mathematical analysis of the underlying models, including numerical stability analysis, error analysis, and validation against experimental data
- Design and conduct computational experiments, in close coordination with our wet-lab scientists, to test and refine the models
- Help define the research roadmap for how Tabula's models should improve over time, and build better practices around experimentation, evaluation, and reproducibility
- Help a small team build an AI-first company whose output is not content or software alone, but real therapies for real patients
- Tabula is building an AI-first therapeutics company.
Requirements
- We already have biology expertise in the company.
Nice to have
- Experience with large-scale scientific computing and high-performance computing environments
- Fluency in Python and the modern scientific-computing stack
- Good research judgment about which ideas are worth testing and how to evaluate them
- Comfort working in an early-stage environment where the problems are hard and the path is still being defined
- You have done substantial modeling and simulation work, not just built products on top of model APIs
- You are excited by the idea of applying physics and computation to something more concrete than the usual software treadmill
- You want your work to be tied to outcomes in the real world
Company info
- You will help shape how we think about research direction, model quality, experimentation standards, and the relationship between the computational and biological sides of the company.
