Technical Lead, Product

Bioptimus is building the first universal AI foundation model for biology to fuel breakthrough discoveries and accelerate innovation in biomedicine. With more than $75M in funding, Bioptimus is a fast-growing start-up headquartered in Paris, incorporated in October 2023. Backed by leading international venture capitalists, our world-class team of scientists and engineers is redefining the frontiers of AI and life sciences. Technical Lead, Product This is a remote role. We’re headquartered in Paris, but the position can be performed remotely outside of Paris. About the role We are looking for a Technical Lead to build the product that puts our foundation models for biology into the hands of scientists and engineers. From the back-end services that serve our models, to the APIs that compose them into capabilities, to the feature-level interfaces that bring them to users—you will own features end to end and turn cutting-edge research into reliable, well-crafted products. You'll work in close partnership with our Product Engineers. This is a senior builder's role at the intersection of AI and biology. You'll work across the stack and across teams, set technical direction on the surfaces you own, mentor other engineers, and partner closely with R&D to ship software that makes our models usable and dependable. This is a technical (individual-contributor) leadership role — you lead by shipping complex features yourself, setting the technical bar through ownership, implementation, architecture, standards and mentoring through code reviews and pairing rather than direct reports. As the Product team grows, there's a path to take on people management if that's a direction you want; it is not a requirement of the role. What you'll be doing As a Technical Lead, you will have ownership over the following: Product Development (End to End): Design, build, test, and ship features spanning back-end services and front-end interfaces for our B2B biology products.
