Alchemi builds AI that helps drug development teams move faster, and we already work with some of the largest pharma companies and CROs in the world.\nThe role\nThe agents are the product. You'll build them end to end: take a real workflow, figure out how experts actually do it, and ship an agent good enough that some of the most demanding customers in the world trust it. Small team, huge scope, and your work goes in front of customers within weeks.\nWhat you'll do\nBuild and ship agents, from tools and retrieval to orchestration and model choice.\n\nWrite the evals that prove they work, and keep raising the bar.\n\nWork side by side with our scientists and customers.\n\nTurn one-off wins into reusable pieces of the platform.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nYou've built LLM apps or agents that real people use, not just demos.\n\nStrong Python and good engineering habits.\n\nYou ship fast and learn faster.\n\nYou're obsessed with how you know something actually works.\n\nEarly in your career is fine. We care about slope, not years.\n\nNice to have\nSide projects, hackathon wins or open-source work you're proud of.\n\nHow we work\nSmall team, low process, high trust. Two-week release cadence, design specs reviewed carefully, and an active resistance to ticket sprawl. Based in New York City, with daily overlap across a team that spans Pacific Time to Western Europe.\nWhy join\nOur goal is to cut years off clinical development timelines. Alchemi has already supported more than 3,000 studies for the top development teams in pharma. We're a small team of experts. We keep talent density high and work closely across every part of the product, from first idea to deployment.\nImpact: Your work goes straight into the regulated workflows that decide how fast drugs reach patients.\n\nExcellence: Work alongside a highly skilled team in a fast-paced, high-impact environment.\n\nOwnership: Help shape product direction, how we work and what we build next.\n\nWhat we offer\nSalary and equity: Competitive salary and meaningful equity, with options weighted toward ownership if that's what you want.\n\nHealth: Best-in-class health and dental insurance.\n\nTime off: 4 weeks of paid vacation plus public holidays, paid sick leave and parental leave.\n\nLocation: Based in New York City.\n\nEquipment: A MacBook, external monitor and accessories.\n\nGrowth: Room to learn and develop in a cutting-edge field.\n\nHow to apply\nInterested in building the future of drug development with us? We'd love to hear from you. Diversity and inclusion are core to our mission. If you're part of an underrepresented group, we strongly encourage you to apply.\nNot quite the right role? If our mission resonates with you, email  with your background and interests.\nWe're an equal opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2903,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Apple
