Your work will change lives. Including your own.
The Impact You’ll Make
As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will be building a platform that accelerates drug discovery with machine learning. By harnessing your experience in machine learning, software engineering, infrastructure, and data, you will:
- Automate, and streamline ML workflows with a mix of off-the-shelf and custom tools as required
- Build, operate and enhance the infrastructure and abstractions to support our emerging research capabilities
- Deploy, monitor, and optimize DL models in a continuously used, high-throughput, biological research platform that performs millions of customized cellular experiments weekly
- Collaborate closely with machine learning engineers, researchers and product managers
The Team You’ll Join
Recursion has created a unique dataset (over 1 million unique biological perturbations profiled in a high-dimensional biological assay, generating almost 20 PB of highly-relatable data) and a special approach to phenotypic drug discovery utilizing our inference-based Recursion Map to predict tens of billions of correlations between disease models and therapeutic candidates.
You will join a team of software and machine learning engineers working to standardize and automate the procedure of training, evaluating, and deploying deep learning models. We are expanding the ML applications we support and optimising the use of our . The capabilities you provide to machine learning scientists will allow them to better understand our models and confidently transition them into production.
The Experience You’ll Need
- Familiarity with the entire lifecycle of ML and software development in production, including:
- Data preparation, model training, evaluation, and monitoring
- Releasing, and maintaining ML products
- Authoring well-tested, scalable, documented code, peer reviews, CI/CD
- A team-first attitude, and eagerness to assist your colleagues
- Nice to haves: , NumPy, Pandas, Horovod, GCP, Hybrid Cloud, Linux, CUDA, Docker, Kubernetes, BigQuery, large scale distributed systems

The Values That We Hope You Share:
- We Care: We care about our drug candidates, our Recursionauts, their families, each other, our communities, the patients we aim to serve and their loved ones. We also care about our work.
- We Learn: Learning from the diverse perspectives of our fellow Recursionauts, and from failure, is an essential part of how we make progress.
- We Deliver: We make no apologies that our expectations for delivery are extraordinarily high. There is urgency to our existence: we sprint at maximum engagement, allowing time and space for recovery.
- Act Boldly with Integrity: No company changes the world or reinvents an industry without being bold. It must be balanced; not by fear, but by doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
- We are One Recursion: We operate with a 'company first, team second' mentality. Our success comes from working as one interdisciplinary team.
Recursion invests time and effort aligning every aspect of work with these values. They aren’t static, but regularly discussed and questioned because we make decisions rooted in those values in our day-to-day work. You can read more about our values and how we live them every day .
