Research Engineer, Model Evaluation and Improvement
Benchling, San Francisco, CA
The role
We’re building an AI scientist for our customers. We can’t do that if we haven’t built the muscle ourselves. AI fluency is the foundation we build on; it's core to how we work, and we're committed to helping every new hire integrate it into their day-to-day. As part of our interview process, you'll complete a brief AI-focused exercise or discussion so we can understand how you think about and use AI to drive impact in your role. Feel free to reference any tools, platforms, or workflows you use today.
We’re a team focused on making frontier AI models better at science. LLMs know an extraordinary amount of biology, but there’s still a large gap in reasoning for the real-world problems scientists face every day. We recently published some of our work here https://www.benchling.com/blog/can-llms-work-in-the-wet-lab.
