The Opportunity

At insitro, we are trying to greatly increase the success rate of drug development by combining human biology, lab automation, and machine learning, at scale.

Central to insitro's thesis is our ability to integrate rich datasets across modalities. From live cell imaging to single-cell RNA sequencing to DNA encoded libraries, insitro generates a diverse and ever growing torrent of data. Our team, Scientific Pipelines, develops the foundation of data pipelines that transform that torrent into the actionable datasets driving our target and drug discovery efforts.

In this role, you will work primarily with heterogenous, multimodal clinical datasets, and build tools to help characterize cellular and patient state, predict the effect of clinical interventions, and design more successful clinical trials. To achieve this, you'll partner directly with machine learning scientists, biologists, engineers, and clinicians to design and build a cohesive platform for data ingestion, transformation, and exploration.

We are open to both hybrid candidates local to the San Francisco Bay area and remote candidates for this role.

What you'll do day to day:

• Ship stuff that makes our scientists say "this is amazing, thank you so much!"
• Collaborate cross-functionally with folks from our machine learning, automation, and biology groups
• Directly shape our roadmap for empowering scientists
• Shape our early-ish engineering culture with your ideas and experience
• All the normal SWE stuff: write code, write and review design docs, talk to collaborators, and do code reviews
• Ultimately you'll move the needle in a meaningful way for insitro and the field of medicine

Examples of projects you will be working on:

• Architecting components of our clinical data platform, spanning data ingestion, warehousing, and discovery
• Building a data portal inspired by tools like HuBMAP and GDC, to make insitro's clinical data accessible to technical and nontechnical collaborators alike
• Designing intuitive interfaces for visualizing and annotating radiology, digital pathology, and other high-content data and the insights that are derived from them
• Embedding deeply with ML scientists, and helping them build multimodal models that map learned phenotypes to clinical outcomes

In return, we will support you by:

• Placing a high degree of trust in your ideas and execution
• Bringing you up to speed in the domain of drug development
• Strive to provide a low-stress work environment
• Making ourselves available for collaboration
• Caring about you as a whole person - not a resource
• Being a well funded startup with conservative runway

About you:

• You have 5+ years of experience as a professional software engineer with 3+ years of full stack web development experience.
• You're eager to ship work, wherever it is on the stack, that makes a difference to scientists and ultimately patients
• You have a track record of turning ideas into maintainable and user-centric software products
• You feel comfortable reasoning about the tradeoffs between quality and speed when building in a startup environment
• You're familiar with the usual SWE things: AWS (or GCP/Azure), relational databases, writing design docs, version control, doing code reviews, perfecting our slackmoji game
• As a bonus, you have:
  • Experience navigating the regulatory landscape of drug development and a strong understanding of data privacy in clinical and genomic research
  • Experience with medium sized (100TB+) cellular or clinical datasets such as sequencing or histopathology
  • Experience with electronic medical records
  • Experience with data and machine learning pipelines
  • Experience with our stack: Python, Javascript/Typescript, React, SQLAlchemy, PostgreSQL, Docker, AWS
