Bioptimus is building the first universal AI foundation model for biology to fuel breakthrough discoveries and accelerate innovation in biomedicine. With more than $75M in funding, Bioptimus is a fast-growing start-up headquartered in Paris, incorporated in October 2023. Backed by leading international venture capitalists, our world-class team of scientists and engineers is redefining the frontiers of AI and life sciences.  THIS IS A REMOTE ROLE. WE’RE HEADQUARTERED IN PARIS, BUT THE POSITION CAN BE PERFORMED REMOTELY OUTSIDE OF PARIS. THE OPPORTUNITY We are looking for a Clinical Expert to support Bioptimus’ clinical and scientific strategy for digital twin and data generation programs. In this role, you will work closely with the science, data, and partnerships teams to support clinical prioritization, scientific interpretation, academic collaborations, and pharma engagement across our research programs. You will contribute clinical and translational expertise to help identify the most important clinical questions and modalities to focus on, support the interpretation of model outputs, and advise on partnerships and research programs aligned with Bioptimus’ data and scientific goals. This is a part-time engagement with the possibility of becoming full-time. WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING As a Clinical Expert, you will own the following tasks: * Clinical Strategy: Support the identification of the most important clinical questions and modalities to prioritize across training and validation cohorts. Provide clinical input on tissue, drug class, disease, and modality prioritization. Support the selection of clinical metadata, endpoints, and patient-level annotations required to maximize downstream model utility. Identify and prioritize clinically relevant tasks including response prediction, toxicity prediction, biomarker discovery, indication expansion, and trial enrichment. * Scientific Interpretation: Provide clinical and biological review of model outputs and scientific results. Work closely with the science team to support results review and contribute to external-facing scientific narratives. Translate model behavior into clinically credible language for pharmaceutical, key opinion leader, and regulatory audiences. * Data & Academic Partnerships: Support connections with academic investigators running relevant clinical studies, including early-phase studies, novel-agent programs, immuno-oncology programs, and multimodal cohorts. Advise on academic partnership structures that align research collaborations with Bioptimus’ data needs, including retrospective and prospective studies. * Pharma Engagement: Support discussions with pharmaceutical R&D teams where relevant. Advise on the positioning of model claims for translational medicine and clinical development audiences. WHAT YOU'LL BRING The successful candidate will bring deep clinical and translational expertise, strong scientific judgment, and enthusiasm for working in a collaborative and fast-paced environment. We value individuals who combine clinical research experience with genuine interest in emerging machine learning approaches in biology. * Clinical Research Experience: MD/PhD with active or recent Principal Investigator experience designing and analyzing clinical studies, particularly studies involving translational endpoints, biomarker sub-studies, and multimodal cohorts. * Onco-Immunology Expertise: Deep expertise in onco-immunology, including IO mechanisms, response and resistance biology, tumor microenvironment biology, IO combinations, and understanding of pharmaceutical pipelines and unmet clinical needs. * Machine Learning & Multimodal Biology Interest: Working understanding of and genuine interest in machine learning and foundation model approaches applied to pathology, transcriptomics, and multimodal data integration. * Collaboration & Communication: Ability to work closely with scientific, clinical, and external stakeholder groups. Strong communication skills with the ability to contribute to scientific discussions and external-facing narratives. Comfortable operating in a startup environment with ambiguity and evolving priorities. HOW TO STAND OUT: * Pharma R&D experience through an industry role or substantive pharmaceutical collaboration history. * Existing academic or hospital network in onco-immunology. * Experience designing and analyzing studies involving translational endpoints, biomarker sub-studies, or multimodal cohorts. * Familiarity with ML or foundation model approaches in pathology, transcriptomics, or multimodal biology.
