Description For Founding Engineer (AI Applications)

Keplogic is at the forefront of revolutionizing life sciences research through their flagship product, Kepler AI, an advanced bioinformatics agent designed to accelerate scientific discovery. As biology becomes increasingly data-driven, Kepler AI bridges the gap between wet-lab teams and bioinformatics analysis, enabling scientists to conduct complex analyses using natural language and receive rigorous results in minutes instead of weeks.

As a Founding Engineer (AI Applications), you'll play a crucial role in shaping the company's core product development. The position involves building scalable enterprise agent environments and designing innovative interfaces for scientist-AI collaboration. You'll work directly with leading biotech/pharma customers and research labs, while collaborating with bioinformaticians and ML researchers.

The role requires strong technical expertise in Python, React/Next.js, TypeScript, and cloud infrastructure technologies. You'll be responsible for implementing microservices, building user-facing features, and integrating cutting-edge AI/ML capabilities. The ideal candidate should have 3+ years of professional experience and be comfortable with modern development practices including Git, CI/CD, and testing frameworks.

Keplogic offers a compelling combination of meaningful equity, competitive salary, and comprehensive benefits. The company has demonstrated early success with three enterprise deals within a month of launch. This is an exceptional opportunity to join a mission-driven startup that's making a real impact in life sciences research, working alongside experienced leaders from companies like GRAIL, Databricks, and other successful ventures.
