When you join BMS, you are joining a diverse, high-achieving team united by a common mission.
The Informatics and Predictive Sciences (IPS) mission is to Pioneer, Partner and Predict to drive transformative insights for patient benefit.
IPS conducts applied computational research in areas that include genomic, structural and molecular informatics, computational and systems biology, patient selection and translational biomarker research, and broader fields including knowledge science, epidemiology and machine learning across the full lifecycle of drug discovery and development and across all therapeutic areas at BMS.
We do this in close partnership with scientific and clinical experts in the field, both inside and outside the company.
We perform innovative science to empower key data-driven decisions across a rich pipeline of next-generation medicines.
In doing so, our work transforms the lives of patients, as well as our own lives and careers.
Here, you ll get the chance to grow and thrive through opportunities that are uncommon in scale and scope.
You ll pursue innovative ideas while advancing professionally alongside some of the brightest minds in biopharma.
JOB DESCRIPTION We are seeking an experienced, creative, and collaborative scientist with expertise in machine-learning based protein design.
You will be responsible for the research and development of innovative computational approaches and workflows to design and optimize drug-like properties that can help us develop novel biologics.
This role provides the opportunity to leverage large-scale proprietary datasets and work with subject matter experts on cross-functional teams to solve challenging problems in how we discover and engineer the next generation of biotherapeutics.
We are deeply passionate about what we do here at Bristol Myers Squibb because we know that our work helps deliver truly innovative and life-changing therapies for complex diseases of unmet medical need.
