Job Description

<p style="min-height:1.5em">Molecule and BIO.xyz are building the foundation of Decentralized Science (DeSci) — where biotech meets web3 to make scientific research community-owned, transparent, and faster to market.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Molecule provides the infrastructure to turn intellectual property (IP) into programmable, on-chain assets through our IP-NFT framework and evolving protocol stack. This enables researchers, patients, and communities to fund and govern biotech projects in new, open ways.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://Bio.xyz">BIO.xyz</a> is the coordination and economic layer of DeSci, powering BioDAOs through funding, governance, and ecosystem alignment.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Together, we are creating a new model for scientific discovery — one where breakthroughs are owned and advanced by the communities that believe in them.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>The Role</h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">You will be an AI Scientist at Molecule. In your first four weeks, you will live on-site, embedded with the founding team, and ship your first autonomous agent fleet into production against a real disease area. From day one you own the loop: design the agents, deploy them, pilot them, iterate, and generate scientific output that moves IP forward.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">This is not a research role with a roadmap handed to you. You will pick targets, stand up infrastructure, recruit your sub-agents, and prove that autonomous science works at the bench-to-IP level. After the residency, you scale: more fleets, more disease areas, more shots on goal.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>What You'll Do</h2><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Architect and deploy fleets of scientific agents spanning literature mining, target identification, molecular design, assay design, and data analysis</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Pilot each fleet against a specific disease area and drive it to a tangible deliverable — a validated target, a candidate molecule, a novel dataset, an IP-NFT</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Run multiple fleets in parallel across disease areas, reporting results directly to the CEO</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Own the full stack: agent design, orchestration, evaluation, and scientific judgment on outputs</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Define and set the standard for how autonomous science gets done at Molecule</p></li></ul><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>Who You Are</h2><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Entrepreneurial to the core.</strong> You ship. You don't wait for permission.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Technically deep</strong> across LLMs, agent frameworks, and at least one wet-science domain - chemistry, biology, pharma, structural biology, or genomics</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><stron
