Job description

Engineer Researcher

Latch builds scientific benchmarks at benchmarks.bio that measure how well AI agents do real biology. Frontier AI labs and pharma companies use them to answer one question: can an agent handle the multilayered reasoning that biological work demands? Every benchmark is grounded in experimental and clinical work and built by scientists who have done that work themselves.

The Role

You will be working on problems in post-training, data quality, task and reward shaping, ML infrastructure, scientific benchmark design, and benchmark delivery. Challenges span understanding the intersection of biology and ML, collaborating directly with scientists, and maintaining quality at a fast cadence.

How we work

Our engineering team is in-person in San Francisco. We look for driven engineers who are excited to take ownership on hard problems and ship creative, useful solutions
