About the Role:

  • You will be the scientific authority on ground truth, testing whether agents reason like expert peptide discovery scientists.
  • Build tasks and datasets spanning linear, macrocyclic, and constrained peptides against protein targets.

The Hard Calls:

  • Test whether agents distinguish true signal from artifact, such as propagation artifacts or distorted sensorgrams.
  • Adjudicate conflicting evidence and identify which experiment would settle the call.

Judge the Agent:

  • Interrogate agent reasoning step by step and challenge conclusions that would not survive a project review.
  • Pinpoint where agents go wrong and what evidence would change the call.

Culture:

  • We practice radical transparency, always us against the problem.
  • We bring solutions with our problems and reward original expert judgment, not AI output.
