About Apheris
At Apheris we are building the future of how AI is applied in pharmaceutical R&D.
Our federated computing technology enables global pharma companies to collaborate securely on large AI models that accelerate drug discovery without ever sharing their proprietary data. By powering multi-partner data networks across small molecules antibodies and protein folding Apheris is redefining how science and AI intersect.
We currently host two flagship networks: theAI Structural Biology (AISB) Network focused on protein co-folding and binding affinity prediction and theADMET Network focused on small-molecule property addition we have just launchedApherisFold an enterprise co-folding application that enables pharma teams to deploy cutting-edge models such as OpenFold 3 and Boltz-2 directly within their own environments.
We are scaling rapidly and are now at a stage where professional well-structured people processes are critical to sustaining execution quality team health and culture as we grow. About the role
