At Recursion, we are pioneering the integration of technological innovations across biology, chemistry, automation, data science, and engineering to modernize drug discovery and development. Today we have 5 drugs in clinical trials, 2 in preclinical and 2 in late discovery. There are more than a dozen early discovery and research programs in oncology, neuroscience, inflammation & immunology, and rare disease.

Since 2017, we have approximately doubled the capacity of our phenomics platform each year and scaled the number of executed phenomic experiments to up to 2.2 million every week, resulting in 21 petabytes of proprietary high-dimensional data. Reporting to the Associate Director of Engineering, for the Scientific Platforms in the Recursion OS, the Engineering Manager will work to provide first-in-class capabilities and infrastructure that provides robust, configurable, automatable experiment configuration and execution readiness on our Scientific Platforms

Act as a mentor, coach, and sponsor - You will share your technical and nontechnical knowledge and experiences, delivering impact, learning, and growth across teams at Recursion. Enable your teams for scale - You will support your engineering team to build robust, configurable, automatable experiment configuration and execution readiness. Provide technical assistance to the team, facilitating their ability to scale effectively.

You'll work with Data Scientists to build relatability and queryability into these datasets so they can be used in five years to answer the sorts of questions we haven't even thought of asking yet.

Provide visibility into operations - You'll create tools to help analyze pre-execution & execution conditions and track the provenance of key drug development decisions.

The Scientific Platforms team develops platforms for every step of the process of exploring biological data. This includes creating reusable, composable solutions for designing, tracking, and executing experiments, transmitting and archiving the resulting data,



and running arbitrary analysis code against all that we have discovered.

Experience leading technical teams using both technical and interpersonal skills to achieve results. Demonstrates a past record of learning from, and teaching peers in areas of performance, scalability, and system architecture.

Significant experience as a software engineer, working on multi-tier systems.

Experience delivering projects with significant ambiguity and technical complexity, ideally spanning multiple production systems and involving diverse technologies.

Our current tech stack uses JavaScript, React, Python, Golang, Kafka, Cloud Composer, PostgreSQL, Docker, and Kubernetes, on cloud services provided by Google Cloud Platform.
