Software Engineering Intern

The Impact You’ll Make

As a software engineering intern at Recursion, you will be involved in one of the following areas:

• Build a platform for experiment design. You’ll work cross-functionally with biologists to create self-service and automated experiment design tools to allow them to focus on what biology they want to do rather than how it will be accomplished while ensuring experiments are designed to generate high-quality data that is relatable across time, disease models, and treatments.
• Build tools that are changing drug discovery. You'll work with biologists, chemists, and data scientists on tools that take Recursion's in-house generated experimental data and machine learning models to predict potential treatments which are then validated in the lab.
• Connect our high throughput screening lab with monitoring and downstream analysis. You’ll consume streaming data from our high throughput screening lab to monitor successful experiment execution, enable triage of anomalies and errors, track molecule identity and inventory, and support downstream analysis based on as-performed experiment conditions.
• Distill large datasets to ensure data-backed decisions. Thousands of experiments every week produce hundreds of thousands of data points. You'll work with data scientists to understand and present this data, including with interactive plots that connect our scientists with the information they need.

You will be in a space of continued learning by participating in various internal events like tech talks, intern project showcases, and other events through your internship where you will share your technical knowledge and experiences. 

The Team You’ll Join 

You’ll join a software engineering team building software used to speed the development of treatments for patients. You’ll work on real projects as part of the team during your internship. This might include moving throughout a full stack of software spanning user interfaces with behavior-based and user-centered designs, RESTful APIs, event streaming, data pipelines, and third-party integrations - seeking and providing feedback and making trade offs as you go to get to the right solution with the right amount of effort.

The Experience You’ll Need

• Excitement for Recursion’s mission!
• Fundamental computer science or software engineering courses
• Experience collaborating to complete software projects.
• A people-first mindset. Despite the deadlines, we always prioritize supporting our coworkers in their growth and experience
