We share our research as openly as possible to accelerate discovery and engage with the broader scientific community.
The Opportunity:
Were building endtoend research workflows that apply evolutionary principles to structure and interpret biological data. Our goal is to move biology from observation and intuition toward predictive statistical reasoning. Read more about our work through our publications.
For this role you will develop agentic AI systems that support scientific reasoning. Youll start by automating targeted parts of the research workflow collaborating closely with scientists to test and improve these tools. The resulting systems will not only speed up research but also generate the data needed to train autonomous decisionmaking agents.
Youll join a small team at the ground floor of this effort working across engineering and exploratory research. Because Arcadia spans the full biological research cycle youll have access to realworld feedback and iterative improvement in close partnership with researchers. Were looking for a strong software engineer whos excited to engage in applied ML work and fast prototyping.

- Building internal tooling to support rapid experimentation and iteration
Qualifications:
- Basic understanding of the life sciences research cycle
- At least 2 years experience working with biological data
- Strong programming skills and ability to quickly write clean testable code
- Experience building agentic workflows with LLMs
- Ability to understand research workflows and build tools aligned with real needs
- Strong debugging skills and comfort working in openended problem spaces
