ML Scientist - Scientific Reasoning

Lila Sciences is building a scientific superintelligence platform and autonomous lab to accelerate discovery in life, chemistry, and materials science. The company seeks an ML Scientist specializing in scientific reasoning to design and implement LLM-based reasoning frameworks, build scalable model prototypes, and collaborate with scientists and engineers to integrate symbolic and statistical approaches into discovery workflows.

Skills

  • Advanced Python programming and software development for ML systems.
  • Deep experience with LLM frameworks: PyTorch, HuggingFace Transformers, LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.
  • Expertise in LLM reasoning methods: in-context learning, chain-of-thought, test-time compute, tool-augmented reasoning.
  • Ability to design experiments, prototype models, and iterate rapidly on research ideas.
  • Strong collaboration and communication with interdisciplinary teams (scientists, engineers).

Responsibilities

  • Design and formalize LLM-based scientific reasoning frameworks (structured prompting, reasoning chains, test-time compute).
  • Research and implement in-context learning, self-reflection, and adaptive reasoning methods for discovery workflows.
  • Prototype and build scalable model systems that integrate with Lila’s platforms for real scientific problems.
  • Collaborate with domain scientists and engineers to encode domain knowledge and combine symbolic and statistical approaches.
  • Balance theoretical research with practical ML engineering to move ideas into production-capable systems.

Education

  • PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, AI, Engineering, Materials Science or related preferred.
  • Equivalent industry research experience considered in lieu of a PhD.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and potential equity opportunity
  • Collaborative research-focused environment with interdisciplinary teams
  • Flexible time off and work-life balance (hybrid onsite/remote model)
  • Opportunities to publish and contribute to open-source frameworks
  • Professional development and conference support
