About Us & What We Offer

We are an early-stage startup — currently a team of 3 friends in their 20s with backgrounds in Chemistry and Computer Science — and we hope to build datasets and models that will revolutionize how organic synthesis is done.

Apart from a fast-paced startup environment, we offer an interesting job at the intersection of Chemistry and Data Science in a well-funded lab. As we are a small team without a strongly defined structure, you will be able to work on what you're best at without any unnecessary internal meetings or reports, helping to define the direction and success of the company.

Compensation: $90,000 - $140,000 salary + 0.7% - 1.5% equity, plus full health, medical, and dental insurance.

Skills & Qualifications

As a candidate, you should:

• Have experience working in an organic chemistry lab
• Be able to work independently, and proactively solve any (unexpected) experimental problems
• Bachelor's or higher degree in chemistry
