About the job
AI Team Lead (Hands-On) – Geneyx
Lead. Build. Transform Genomic Intelligence.
Geneyx is looking for a visionary yet deeply hands-on AI Team Lead to elevate and expand the next generation of AI capabilities in genetics and precision medicine.
If you’re the kind of leader who loves setting strategy AND rolling up your sleeves, this one’s for you.
In this role, you’ll guide a team of top-tier engineers and researchers while building intelligent agents and strengthening the AI infrastructure behind our genomic analysis platform.
We’re seeking someone who’s a true technology enabler, an engineer at heart, who can translate cutting-edge AI tools into scalable, production-ready solutions (rather than someone focused on academic research or developing novel models from scratch).
If transforming genetic data into real clinical insights excites you, we’d love to talk.
What You’ll Do
• Lead the AI team in developing and deploying advanced ML models and intelligent agents
• Collaborate with geneticists and domain experts to integrate AI into genomic workflows
• Shape and refine the roadmap of Geneyx’s expanding AI initiatives
• Drive improvements in model accuracy, scalability, and interpretability
• Mentor and grow the team while fostering curiosity and collaboration
• Serve as a hands-on technical leader, owning engineering implementation of AI capabilities
• Stay current with emerging tools and research in AI and computational biology
What You Bring
• Proven experience leading AI/ML projects (healthcare/life sciences – a plus)
• Strong coding skills (Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, etc.)
• Experience with agent-based or autonomous AI frameworks
• Excellent English communication skills
• Advantage: background in genetics, bioinformatics, or computational biology
• A visionary builder’s mindset—turning ideas into real, shippable solutions
• Demonstrated ability to productize and operationalize AI technologies (not purely research-focused)
What We Offer
• A chance to shape the AI backbone of a growing biotech company
• Daily collaboration with experts in genetics, data, and software
• A flexible, supportive, curiosity-driven environment
• Real impact on the future of personalized medicine
• Competitive compensation + stock options
