The posting

Merge Labs is a frontier research lab with the mission of bridging biological and artificial intelligence to maximize human ability, agency and experience. We’re pursuing this goal by developing fundamentally new approaches to brain-computer interfaces that interact with the brain at high bandwidth, integrate with advanced AI, and are ultimately safe and accessible for anyone to use.

About the team

Merge is building the next generation of brain-computer interfaces by combining recent advances in synthetic biology, neuroscience, AI, and non-invasive imaging. To support this mission, we are building a cross-functional data-science group which sits at the intersection of computational modeling, neuroscience, and biomolecular engineering. This group collaborates extensively with wet-lab scientists, automation engineers, and data engineers to create ML frameworks that accelerate molecule discovery and device optimization.

About the role

We need a Data-Scientist who can sit at the interface of Ultrasound, synthetic-biology, and research platforms (imaging, sequencing) and drive the development of rigorous data-analysis pipelines that surface actionable insights for experimental and computational researchers alike. This person will collaborate with domain experts in ML, Ultrasound, synthetic biology, and data-engineering to develop data-analysis pipelines that transform “raw” data into actionable artifacts. This person will subsequently collaborate with ML researchers to develop and run ML pipelines that enable de-novo design and closed-loop active learning cycles across a number of problem domains in bioengineering (delivery, immunology, synthetic biology, protein-engineering).

In this role, you will:

- Collaborate with wet-lab scientists to define tractable optimization objectives and metrics, and encode domain specific priors and constraints for downstream computational modeling.

- Stay current with research in Synthetic Biology and ML-guided molecular and cellular engineering, as well as data-analysis methods and techniques for biological data (OMICS, Agentic-workflows).

- Contribute to the long-term research roadmap and serve as a thought-leader for scientists.

You might thrive in this role if you have:

- Deep grounding in synthetic biology, molecular engineering, and computational methods for data-analysis.

- Experience in biomolecular ultrasound.

- Familiarity with fundamental concepts in NGS, Omics, ML, and molecular engineering.

- Proficiency in Python / PyTorch / BoTorch / Pyro and comfort writing clean, reproducible production grade code.

- Experience bridging machine learning and experimental science, especially working with sparse, noisy, and or high-cost data.

If you're excited about this role but don't meet every qualification, please apply. As we build, we're hiring for complementary strengths to form a high-impact team.

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.
