An internal pre-identified candidate for consideration has been identified. However, all applications will be considered.

We are searching for the best talent for the Principal Scientist position.

Purpose: Serves as an individual contributor who is a developing subject matter expert in the Data Science field. Develops actionable insights for methods and research for the internal Data Science community. Applies in-depth skills of the field to design and develop industry-leading products. Contributes to scientific projects, programs, and processes of importance to the organization's Data Science function.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and benchmark novel agent architectures, reasoning strategies, and tool-use patterns — determining how LLM-based agents can autonomously plan, hypothesize, and execute within scientific research workflows.
  • Prototype agentic capabilities as proof-of-concepts across therapeutic areas (drug discovery, clinical development, translational science), rapidly iterating to identify which approaches deliver genuine scientific value versus incremental automation.
  • Partner with therapeutic-area researchers to identify high-impact research problems where agentic AI can change what's feasible — translating domain expertise into concrete agent designs and experimental tool integrations.
  • Publish findings through peer-reviewed papers, demonstrations, and knowledge-sharing that advances J&J's scientific position in agentic AI and attract top research talent.
  • Establish the patterns and reference implementations that allow successful innovations to graduate from experimentation into the broader platform — defining what 'ready for production' looks like without owning ongoing operations.

Preferred ("nice-to-have") qualifications:

  • Familiarity with scientific data types, biomedical ontologies, or research workflows in drug discovery, clinical development, or translational science.
  • Experience designing and running benchmarks or evaluation harnesses for AI agent performance in scientific domains.
  • Track record of technical mentorship and cross-team scientific leadership — helping others adopt and extend novel AI capabilities.
  • Experience with cloud-native infrastructure, containerized deployment (e.g., Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines, and agile development practices — sufficient to move prototypes toward production-ready services.

Qualifications/Requirements:

  • Master's degree or ain Computer Science, Data Science, Computational Biology, or a related discipline.
  • Proven experience designing, building, and evaluating AI/ML systems or scientific software — with a track record of moving from research prototype to demonstrated impact.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and scientific computing; comfort with rapid prototyping, experimental design, and rigorous evaluation of AI capabilities.
  • Hands-on experience with LLM-based systems and frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangFuse, etc.) used for agent orchestration, tool-calling, prompt engineering, retrieval augmented generation, and/or evaluation frameworks.
  • Ability to work independently and within distributed developer teams utilizing agile programming methodologies
  • Ability to collaborate across disciplines — translating between therapeutic area scientists, data scientists, and engineers to turn domain problems into concrete agentic AI solutions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
