tl;dr: Graph is an R&D-focused precision immunology techbio. This is a position for a purpose-driven scientific software engineer or computational biologist. You will get to build and experiment at the operating layer of a unique, multi-modal biological discovery system.
Full: Immune-mediated diseases affect hundreds of millions of people world-wide, but fewer than 12% of new drugs reach approval, largely due to insufficient preclinical understanding of the complex underlying disease biology.
You will be joining a preclinical techbio company building a differential drug discovery and development pipeline in the immunology space. We do this by precisely understanding disease biology through iterative, causal discovery starting from realistic primary patient models. Our founders have authored several landmark publications in the precision medicine space, previously exited a precision medicine startup, and built a unique translational research program in a large pharmatech. As natives of both tech and bio spaces, we deeply appreciate the unique challenges that come with both.
Apply if you want to understand the causal mechanisms of disease through multi-modal, realistic primary cell models prior to designing therapeutics.

About us
Graph is a precision immunology techbio that leverages perturbation modeling from primary patient cell samples combined with multi-omics data to deliver transformative targeted therapies and biomarkers for immune-driven diseases. Graph believes that due to an incomplete understanding of complex immune-mediated diseases, millions of patients are left without adequate treatment options - and AI trained with complex disease data can solve this.
