About Mandrake Bioworks

Mandrake Bioworks is an AI-first biotechnology company reimagining how we design and engineer life itself. Our mission is to build intelligent systems that make biology programmable . We’re unlocking a new generation of gene editing technologies that will power breakthroughs in longevity, de-aging, sustainable agriculture, and climate resilience .

We’re building the foundational AI stack for biology - spanning large-scale biological data engines, foundation-model training, and generative design systems that can create new molecular tools from first principles.

If you want to build at the intersection of AI, life, and the future of civilization and see your models transform what humanity can engineer, this is the place to do it.

What You’ll Work On

Build, train, and evaluate foundation and generative models for biological data
Develop data pipelines for large-scale datasets : curation, normalization, clustering, and annotation
Work hands-on with pretraining, finetuning, and reinforcement-learning (RL / RLHF / DPO) pipelines
Implement and optimize transformer-based architectures (language + multimodal models)
Design evaluation and benchmarking frameworks for model performance and representation learning
Collaborate with the biology and ML teams to deploy AI systems that directly inform experimental design

You’re a Great Fit If You

Are strong in Python and PyTorch / JAX , and comfortable with deep-learning libraries (Lightning, HuggingFace, etc.)

Have experience with GenAI / LLMs / diffusion models , especially pretraining or finetuning

Can handle large datasets end-to-end (data wrangling, deduplication, clustering, sampling)

Have solid understanding of transformers, embeddings, attention, and training optimization

Have hands on experience with RL / RLHF / DPO and can implement and iterate on them

Thrive in fast-moving environments and like taking full ownership of what you build

Why Mandrake

Work on the frontier of AI × Biology - creating technologies that could redefine longevity, health, and the future of our planet.

Join a small, high-velocity team where your ideas directly shape the company’s direction and breakthroughs.

You’ll have extremely high ownership. Own what you build end to end - from idea to model to deployment.

We operate like an applied research lab - rapid iteration, deep focus, and no bureaucracy.

Work on real problems, not toy datasets. Build, publish, and innovate at the edge of science and engineering.

Be part of something consequential. This isn’t just another startup - it’s the beginning of programmable life.

Passionate final year students who can join part time now and full-time early next year are welcome to apply.

Location : Indiranagar, Bengaluru (in-person, full-time), 6 days a week (Remote only for exceptional candidates)

PS : We don't care about degrees or credentials. Send us proof of work!
