Job Specifications

Isomorphic Labs is applying frontier AI to help unlock deeper scientific insights, faster breakthroughs, and life-changing medicines with an ambition to solve all disease.

The future is coming. A future enabled and enriched by the incredible power of machine learning. A future in which diseases are curtailed or cured starting with better and faster drug discovery.

Come and be part of an interdisciplinary team driving groundbreaking innovation and play a meaningful role in contributing towards us achieving our ambitious goals, while being a part of an inspiring and collaborative culture.

The world we want tomorrow is the one we’re building today. It starts with the culture at this company. It starts with you.

About Iso

Isomorphic Labs (IsoLabs) was launched in 2021 to advance human health by building on and beyond the Nobel-winning AlphaFold system. Since then, our interdisciplinary team of drug discovery experts and machine learning specialists has built powerful new predictive and generative AI models that accelerate scientific discovery at digital speed.

Our name comes from the belief that there is an underlying symmetry between biology and information science. By harnessing AI’s powerful capabilities, we can use it to model complex biological phenomena to help design novel molecules, anticipate how drugs will perform and develop innovative medicines to treat and cure some of the world’s most devastating diseases.

We have built a world-leading drug design engine comprising AI models that are capable of working across multiple therapeutic areas and drug modalities. We are continually innovating on model architecture and developing cutting-edge capabilities to advance rational drug design.

Every day, and with each new breakthrough, we’re getting closer to the promise of digital biology, and achieving our ambitious mission to one day solve all disease with the help of AI.

Your impact

As a Senior Security Engineer, you will architect and manage the security of our groundbreaking ML-based platform and High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure. This role requires a highly proactive problem-solver who enjoys a fast-paced environment and possesses the curiosity to dive into diverse technical challenges.

You will act as a versatile, T-shaped engineer, overseeing security solutions from initial requirement gathering to final implementation. By combining deep technical know-how with strong collaborative skills, you will ensure our security posture evolves as quickly as our research, managing the end-to-end lifecycle of our defense systems.

What You Will Do

Secure Architecture and Product Engineering: Participate in the design and perform security reviews of our evolving AI platforms and underlying HPC infrastructure.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security: Partner with our DevOps / SRE team to harden our cloud infrastructure and our network, ensuring security by design, automation and auditability through Policy as Code.
Third Party Systems Secure Integration: Perform deep-dive technical assessments of third-party platforms, AI solutions, Cloud or SaaS providers and support secure integration or deployment.
Secure CI/CD: Design and implement automated security controls within our CI/CD pipelines to ensure code is secure from commit to production without slowing down research velocity.
Threat Modeling & Risk Assessment: Conduct proactive threat modeling and risk assessment, support teams in the implementation of remediation plan and audit expected outcomes.
Incident Response: Act as a L2/L3 escalation point for the remediation of complex vulnerabilities and security incidents.
Identity & Access Management: Implement our state-of-the-art Zero Trust framework, ensuring robust access control and consistent enforcement of the principle of least privilege.
Risk Management and Compliance Automation: Bridge the gap between technical controls and regulatory requirements (GDPR, GxP, EU AI Act) by automating evidence collection and risk posture monitoring (CSPM).
Security Tooling Development: Build or integrate custom internal tools that automate repetitive security tasks, shifting our operational load from manual toil to scalable engineering.
End-to-End Solution Delivery: Manage the full lifecycle of security controls, from initial user needs analysis and requirements gathering to structured testing and phased implementation and communication, ensuring high-quality deployment followed by data-driven continuous improvement.

Essential

Skills and qualifications

Cloud Engineering Proficiency: Deep technical knowledge of cloud platform security (GCP preferred) including Network and VPC design, IAM policy construction, Cloud resources hardening and Cloud native security services.
Analytical Risk Management and Problem Solving: Proficiency in assessing multi-faceted risks and decomposing complex security issues into manageable tasks and providing data-driven recommendations to stakeholders.
Coding Skills: Abilit
