About Aqemia
Aqemia is a next-generation pharmatech reinventing drug discovery with quantum-inspired physics and generative AI.
Our mission: design innovative small-molecule drug candidates for dozens of critical diseases, faster and smarter, without relying on experimental data.
Unlike traditional approaches, Aqemia starts drug discovery purely in silico. By combining physics-based models with large language models trained on proprietary data, we identify promising molecules with high accuracy before synthesis.
We've already delivered multiple preclinical successes and secured strategic partnership. Our internal pipeline is growing fast, with several programs in in vivo optimization.
We're a team of 65+ based in Paris and London, we bring together chemists, physicists, engineers, and machine learning experts to push the boundaries of what's possible in early-stage drug discovery.
The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer in the team building our product, you will support the daily activities of scientists (physics, ML, deep learning) who produce predictors and prediction flows.
You'll build the engine that enables large-scale computing and seamless data transformation.
Working closely with scientists and engineers, you'll bring automation, scalability, and reliability to one of the most critical layers of our platform, where predictions turn into decisions.
This role combines backend development, system design, and scientific tooling in a fast-paced and collaborative environment.
What you'll do
Build and scale the engine powering data management and scientific computation
Design modular, maintainable, and scalable components in Python using best software engineering practices
Ensure robustness, observability, and performance of the system
Collaborate with ML scientists and chemoinformaticians to integrate scientific logic into production-grade software
Contribute to code reviews, testing, and documentation to maintain high engineering standards
Take part in architectural discussions and drive continuous platform improvements
Ensure the product is stable and operational, including supporting production environments
What we're looking for
6+ years of experience in backend or scientific software development
Strong Python programming skills
Solid understanding of system design, API development, and scalable infrastructure
Experience with ML or scientific computing pipelines is a plus
Strong sense of ownership, attention to detail, and ability to collaborate across functions
Comfortable in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
Preferred mindset
You enjoy building robust systems that power real scientific impact
You balance pragmatism and technical rigor to deliver high-quality results quickly
You thrive working closely with scientists and turning abstract ideas into real features
You care about writing clean, maintainable code others can build on
Why Join Us
At Aqemia, engineers don't just build software, they help discover real drugs.You'll work at the intersection of AI, physics and chemistry, transforming bold scientific ideas into robust, production-grade tools that accelerate discovery.
DeepTech Mission : Build the platform that powers AI-driven drug discovery, combining quantum-inspired physics with generative models
Real-World Impact : Every feature shipped helps scientists prioritize molecules and design better candidates, faster
Modern Stack & Challenges : Python, FastAPI, Airflow, Snowflake, Kubernetes, ML workflows, scientific infra, data engineering at scale
High Ownership, High Impact : Engineers contribute to architecture, tooling, and scientific decision-making
Interdisciplinary Team : Collaborate with chemists, physicists, ML researchers, and product teams
Prime Locations : Central Paris or London offices, with 2 remote days/week
Strategic Traction : Backed by $100M in funding and a $140M partnership with Sanofi
Join us if you're excited to shape the future of AI-driven drug discovery, and want your code to change the course of real diseases.
