Our mission

Novogaia is an early-stage techbio company based in San Francisco with a presence in Prague and Amsterdam. At Novogaia, we’re building machine learning models to rapidly screen fungi and identify novel bioactive small molecules for applications in pharma and agriculture.

What we're looking for

We are looking for two full-time summer interns. Working alongside our CTO, David Kubánek, you’ll be helping us build best-in-class models for predicting the properties of molecules produced by fungi based on their DNA and mass spectra.

The first role would best suit a bioinformatician with knowledge in genetics and metabolomics.

The second role would best suit an machine learning research engineer with experience building transformer models, looking to get exposure to datasets and modelling in biology and chemistry.

Ideal candidates will be pursuing a masters or a PhD in a relevant discipline, looking to get practical experience at a startup and make real-world impact.

Duration of internship is 2-4 months from July to October, start and end dates are flexible. Preferred location is Prague but we can also discuss a remote option.
