Scientific Software Engineer - Computational Chemistry

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 Scientific Software Engineer you will contribute directly to building the product supporting drug hunters daily activities and accelerating Aqemia’s drug discovery programs. You will work at the intersection of cheminformatics, software engineering, and drug discovery, designing and implementing tools that serve scientists and guide compound design decisions. This is a key technical role with strong cross-functional impact across medicinal chemistry, physics modeling, and AI teams.
