Description
Reports to: VP of Technology Location: Remote (UK based) We're looking for an experienced engineering leader to take ownership of Biorelate's engineering function. You'll have six direct reports, the leads of Platform Engineering (including Security), Data Engineering, and Full-Stack Engineering, with around 13 engineers across the function in total. You'll report to the VP of Technology. Most of your time will go into making the engineering organisation work well: clear ownership, effective processes, engineers who are growing, and projects that land on time. You'll still stay close enough to the technical work to make good calls (architecture reviews, knotty production incidents, the occasional spike to de-risk a new direction), but your primary contribution is organisational. You'll be helping us execute against Biorelate's mission: accelerating drug discovery by building the world's largest and most accurate biomedical knowledge graph, and getting that data to the places where it has the most impact. What We Do Research and Development in the pharmaceutical industry is time-consuming, expensive, and often overlooks valuable data insights. We’re changing that with AI-powered data science solutions that uncover hidden insights to support more efficient and informed drug discovery. Using AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP), our technology extracts and structures data from millions of scientific documents, identifying causal biological relationships and organising them into knowledge graphs. This advanced data science empowers bioinformaticians and biologists with a deeper understanding of the connections between diseases, proteins, and drugs. Our team consists of biomedical and data science experts with real-world lab and pharmaceutical experience. These specialists ensure that our solutions are scientifically grounded, delivering accurate, reliable data to our customers. The Company Biorelate is a venture backed Series A startup (supported by established Tech investors). If you’re eager to collaborate with exceptional scientists, software engineers, and subject matter experts from various fields in a supportive, ego-free environment, Biorelate is the place for you.
