About the role
Eikon Therapeutics is a new biopharmaceutical company employing revolutionary technology at the intersection of chemistry, engineering, computation, and biology to discover novel treatments for life-threatening diseases. Eikon’s discovery platform is built on groundbreaking innovations from its founders (Nobel Prize, 2014), culminating in the creation of microscopes which enable real time, molecular-resolution measurements of protein movement in living cells, thereby unlocking otherwise intractable classes of proteins as drug targets. Position We are currently seeking an experienced Informatics Engineer to contribute to the design, implementation, and development of our informatics processes and systems in support of all phases of our research pipelines. You will work closely with our scientists and engineers to capture and manage functional
requirements, and you will be a core member of a team responsible for building scalable, AI-enabled solutions that fit into our information ecosystem and ensure the integrity of our data architecture. About You You are agile of mind and effectively communicate difficult concepts. You work well within a fast-paced, mission-driven, dynamic environment and possess a deep desire to pursue creative solutions with broad guidance and a high degree of independence. You are prepared to tackle a broad selection of challenges as the company grows.
