    Default job background
    Description
    Vilya is a computational biotechnology company creating a novel class of medicines to precisely target disease biology. We believe computational approaches are an integral, if not foundational, component of drug discovery and development.

    Our platform is built on ground-breaking research in advanced computational approaches and taps into uncharted chemical space to design new molecular structures not found in nature.

    Our molecules open the door to a brand-new class of medicine with enhanced drug-like properties. We are harnessing the power of our platform to go after previously impossible targets in an array of indications. Vilya's ultimate goal is to solve some of the most challenging unmet medical needs that exist today.

    Our Vision:
    Harness a revolution in technology and biology to better human health

    Our Mission:
    Build an independent, leading biotech company founded on intelligent drug design to cure the incurable

    We are seeking a highly motivated Research Associate with a molecular or cell biology background.

    As a key contributor, you will work with a dynamic, cross-functional team, developing and executing experiments to identify drug candidates and support SAR studies for our diverse preclinical portfolio.

    You will join a biotech startup with long-term stability due to significant funding, but whose drug discovery and development organization is very much in formation.

    A lot can change in this early and exciting phase, providing many opportunities for significant impact.

    You will work closely with a talented team, learn a broad range of skills, and help shape Vilya's culture, strategic direction, and outcomes.

    Join us, and help make a difference to patients
