Position Components

In this role, you will work with colleagues in the JNJ Innovative Medicine R&D Data Science & Digital Health organization and partner with key businesses across JNJ Innovative Medicine (formerly Janssen) to apply advanced data science and analytics to answer key research questions. As an intern, you will get the opportunity to work on cutting-edge problems at the intersection of artificial intelligence and drug discovery. You will be a member of a dynamic team comprising data scientists and subject matter experts to create and iterate on data science solutions. Projects include, but are not limited to, developing, and applying predictive and generative artificial intelligence methods for molecular property prediction and generation with the ultimate goal of drug discovery. Interns could be located out of our US locations in San Diego, San Francisco, Titusville, Raritan, Spring House, Boston as well as remote.

Qualifications

Minimum qualifications:

• Currently pursuing a PhD degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Statistics, or related quantitative discipline.

• Strong working knowledge of machine learning with demonstrated research experience, as evidenced by publications, public code contributions, etc.

• Proficiency in Python and hands-on experience with Deep Learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow to tackle scientific problems.

• Strong technical communication and presentation skills.

• Ability to understand and write academic research papers.

Preferred qualifications:

Experience in one or more of the following:

• Extensive research experience working with sequence models (e.g.- with Large Language Models (LLMs)).

• Familiarity with Hyperbolic Deep Learning, Hierarchical Learning, Differential geometry, and/or Geometric Deep Learning is a plus.

• Familiarity with hierarchical and tree-based data representations is highly desirable.

• Knowledge and interest in drug discovery and experience working with drug discovery datasets, including graph, sequence, omics, and/or structure-based data is a plus.

Responsibilities:

• Development and evaluation of predictive and generative machine learning algorithms to analyze molecular datasets for drug discovery.

• Collaborate closely with other machine learning scientists, computational biologists and chemists to develop and execute the research project.

• Document and disseminate research findings internally and externally (e.g.- publishing in top-tier ML conferences/journals).

Others:

• Permanently authorized to work in the U.S., must not require sponsorship of an employment visa (e.g., H-1B or green card) at the time of application or in the future. Students currently on CPT, OPT, or STEM OPT usually requires future sponsorship for long term employment and do not meet the requirements for this program unless eligible for an alternative long-term status that does not require company sponsorship.

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
