About the job

About Prima Mente

Prima Mente is a pioneering AI lab specializing in frontier biology. We are committed to developing our own data, constructing versatile biological foundation models, and translating groundbreaking discoveries into tangible research and clinical results. Our primary objective is to advance our understanding of the brain, aiming to protect it from neurological diseases while enhancing its health. Our talented team of AI researchers, experimentalists, clinicians, and operators is strategically located in London, San Francisco, and Dubai.

Role Overview:

As our inaugural Forward Deployed Scientist, you will integrate our flagship model, Pleiades, with early partners to explore potential research outcomes and product hypotheses, while leading the development of our Forward Deployment Strategy.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, manage, and oversee the Forward Deployment function.
  • Directly handle the customer implementation strategy and execution from start to finish.
  • Collaborate closely with early design partners, including research institutes and healthcare providers, to gain a comprehensive understanding of their needs regarding cfDNA fragment analysis, epigenetic embedding, multi-omic integration, and diagnostic reporting.
  • Transform real-world challenges into actionable, deployable solutions by designing and constructing custom pipelines, data ingestion processes, model integration, and tailored output handling.
  • Serve as the primary technical liaison, building trust and guiding the customer's teams.
  • Establish deployment best practices and identify reusable patterns for future implementations.
  • Incorporate findings from deployments back into the R&D roadmap, aiding in prioritizing model enhancements and new features.

Who You Are:

We value diverse skill sets and do not expect candidates to meet every qualification. Strong candidates typically possess depth in some areas while showing interest in others.

  • Exceptional customer engagement and empathy: you can effectively communicate complex systems to non-technical stakeholders and understand their business challenges, translating these into technical specifications.
  • Strong technical proficiency: adept in programming and scripting languages, particularly Python, with the ability to build bioinformatics pipelines and refine ML models for production settings.
  • Experience in creating tools or frameworks for ML/AI workloads, including data pipelines, infrastructure, and CI/CD processes.
  • A proactive approach towards rapid iteration and adapting project scopes as needed.
