Job Description
Summary: Salt AI is a company focused on providing AI solutions for regulated industries, particularly in life sciences. They are seeking a motivated intern to work with their Chief Business Officer and Sales Solutions team, helping design and implement AI-driven solutions that transform workflows in pharmaceutical and biotech sectors.
Responsibilities:
- Architect and iterate on agent-based systems that execute complex workflows, particularly in drug discovery and life sciences R&D
- Work alongside the CBO and solutions engineers to understand client workflows end-to-end, from initial discovery through prototype delivery
- Build functional workflow prototypes using Salt’s orchestration platform, translating client and research problems into working demonstrations
- Reproduce and evaluate existing AI models and research papers to assess their applicability within Salt’s infrastructure
- Help identify opportunities within drug discovery and adjacent domains where AI can meaningfully enhance processes and outcomes
- Support the development and optimization of ML and deep learning models for research applications, adapting them for new use cases
- Research domain-specific requirements across life sciences, financial services, and energy—feeding findings back to the commercial and product teams
- Contribute to reusable templates, documentation, and technical content that enable partners to self-serve and scale
- Stay current with emerging AI trends, agent frameworks, and orchestration tooling, and share insights with the broader team
- Collaborate cross-functionally to translate scientific and business problems into AI-driven approaches
Required Qualifications:
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, or a related field
- Experience with LLMs, agent frameworks, or workflow orchestration tools (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen, BioNemo, or similar)
- Familiarity with AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, or similar)
- Academic or personal AI/ML project experience—you've built things, not just studied them
- Exposure to analyzing or reproducing research papers
- Coursework or project work related to life sciences, bioinformatics, or computational biology
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Effective communication and teamwork skills—able to translate technical concepts into practical, client-facing applications
- Willingness to learn and adapt in a fast-paced, build-from-scratch environment
Preferred Qualifications:
- Prior experience in drug discovery or AI research
- Interest in pharmaceutical or biotech applications, particularly therapeutic discovery pipelines
- Familiarity with scientific computing environments, data lineage, or provenance tracking
- A scrappy mentality—comfortable wearing multiple hats, driving clarity in ambiguous situations, and doing whatever it takes to move things forward
- Professional-level English communication skills
Required Skills: Large Language Models (LLMs), Agent frameworks, Workflow orchestration tools, AI-assisted coding tools, AI/ML project experience, Research paper analysis, Life sciences domain knowledge, Bioinformatics, Computational biology
