About this role
Principal / Sr. Principal BioML Scientist San Francisco, CA USA Your Impact at LILA Lila is building a platform where AI and automation co-evolve to solve the hardest problems in medicine. Within Life Sciences AI (LSAI), we are standing up a new AI for Cell Biology team to develop autonomous-science capabilities for cellular and tissue biology, spanning single-cell omics, perturbation biology, spatial profiling, imaging, genetics, and multi-modal experimental data. We are seeking a Principal or Sr. Principal BioML Scientist to be a co-architect of how Lila's autonomous-science platform changes cell biology and to own the applied and translational BioML charter that turns those platform capabilities into real-world therapeutic impact. The team's ML lead owns core model strategy and inference architecture; the Engineering lead owns platform infrastructure; this role adds the applied scientific perspective into platform shape: deciding what closed loops are worth running, what kinds of scientific questions become tractable when AI and lab automation co-evolve, and what evidence standard turns a model output into an experimental decision. The platform isn't something this role consumes ; it's something this role helps build , from the applied science side. This role grows and leads the team's applied science footprint : a group of domain-embedded scientists working across disease areas and therapeutic modalities (cell therapy, nucleic-acid delivery, small molecule). The initial applied focus is target identification as the entry point into cell-biology-grounded therapeutic discovery, with the scope broadening over time as the team and the platform mature.
