## Description

AI Biologics - Genetic Medicines

Latch builds rigorous scientific benchmarks (benchmarks.bio http://benchmarks.bio) for AI agents across biology. We work with frontier labs and pharma to measure whether agents can handle real biological workflows: the messy, multi-layer reasoning that matters in the field.

We’re seeking an AI Biologist - Genetic Medicines to join our team working at the frontier of what artificial intelligence can achieve in gene therapy, gene editing, and RNA therapeutics development.



About the Role

You will contribute to our technical approach for evaluating agent performance at reasoning across the genetic medicines pipeline – gene therapy, gene editing, and RNA therapeutics from target validation and drug discovery to clinical development. 


You will work as part of a team of software engineers and scientists building datasets and AI agent tasks across the end-to-end genetic medicines pipeline, including:

 - Designing realistic program case studies spanning target validation, drug design and screening, chemistry optimization, candidate nomination, and IND-enabling studies across genetic medicine modalities

 - Evaluating PK/PD, immunogenicity, and GLP toxicology findings across modalities and development stages

 - Reconstructing program go/no-go decisions from multi-source data

 - Reviewing and stress-testing agent outputs for scientific soundness, catching reasoning that is textbook-correct but not defensible in a program review

 - Calibrating AI agent confidence on preclinical data with incomplete or conflicting signals, rather than forcing
