Associate Principal/Principal Computational Biologist

Ready to push the boundaries of drug discovery? This is your chance to join a cutting-edge biotech shaping the future with condensate biology—an entirely new frontier in human health. They’re looking for a visionary Associate Principal / Principal Computational Biologist to harness advanced analytics, AI, and biological insight to crack the toughest therapeutic challenges. If you live for big data, bold ideas, and impact, this is the role that lets you change the game.
This is no ordinary biotech—it’s an industry pioneer redefining what’s possible in drug discovery. With a mission to decode condensate biology and transform treatments for diseases long considered ‘undruggable’, they unite high-resolution biology, AI-driven insight, and bold scientific thinking. Backed by world-class investors and alliances with leading pharma, they offer a culture of innovation, inclusion, and scientific adventure.
This is the kind of environment where your work won't disappear into a backlog or sit in a publication queue for years. Instead, your analyses will directly influence programme decisions, guide experiments and help accelerate the development of potentially life-changing therapies.
