Join us to be a part of the AI revolution!

At InstaDeep’s BioAI department, we push the boundaries of healthcare and medical science by combining cutting-edge biology and artificial intelligence expertise. Our projects range from designing next-generation vaccines and cancer treatments to advancing biopharmaceuticals for infectious disease prevention and therapy. By joining us, you’ll have the opportunity to collaborate with leading scientists, engineers, and biologists from both InstaDeep and BioNTech to tackle critical challenges in medicine.

As a Research Engineer Intern, you’ll work closely with a dynamic team of research engineers and computational biologists. Your mission will be to design innovative approaches for molecular modelling, protein interactions, protein design, and other related areas by leveraging your technical, analytical, and research expertise. You’ll gain a deep understanding of bioinformatics and business challenges while staying updated on the latest advancements in machine learning and biology.

In this role, you’ll:

Identify and apply state-of-the-art technologies to solve complex problems and improve existing solutions.

Contribute to the commercial deployment of these solutions.

Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team to experiment with diverse approaches, analyse results, and deliver proof of concepts and minimum viable products.

Ensure continuous improvement and maintenance of industrial-grade solutions.

Write high-quality, maintainable, well-documented, and modular software libraries.

The internship focuses on building machine learning models to advance the development of personalised cancer vaccines. Two positions are available:

The first one will focus on improving peptide-MHC presentation and neoantigen immunogenicity prediction models.

The other position will work on integrating ML/DL techniques in mass-spectrometry data identification pipeline to improve the sequencing of proteins, which is crucial for downstream peptide-MHC presentation and neoantigen prediction.
