Intern
$120K/yr - $120K/yrCrownlands is building a precision neurology discovery platform to understand neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. They are seeking a summer intern to work on their multi-agent AI scientist framework for drug discovery, focusing on improving core parts of the agentic pipeline and integrating systems.
Biotechnology
No H1B
Responsibilities
Agent workflow engineering: Design and implement agent-based AI workflows for drug discovery and evaluation
Reliability and observability: Improve stability, tracing, and debuggability of multi-agent systems (tool calling, iteration control, validation, guardrails)
Evaluation and benchmarking: Help define benchmarks, metrics, and failure modes for agent performance; build evaluation harnesses and regression tests
Provider-agnostic abstractions: Build and maintain abstractions across multiple LLM backends/providers
Systems integration: Integrate agents with internal data systems, APIs, SQL databases, and execution environments (AWS preferred)
Protocol design: Collaborate on prompt, schema, and protocol design for robust agent interaction
Qualification
Required
Typical background: senior student (undergraduate, master's, or PhD) in Machine Learning, Software Engineering, Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Data Science, or a related field
Strong Python skills and experience building ML systems beyond notebooks (pipelines, services, orchestration)
Familiarity with LLM tooling, agent frameworks, or workflow engines (e.g., LangGraph, LangChain, or comparable custom systems)
Experience working with structured data, APIs, SQL databases, and/or distributed systems (AWS preferred)
Ability to reason about system behavior, edge cases, and failure modes; comfortable debugging complex flows
Interest in applying AI systems to real scientific or industrial problems
Fascination with the philosophy and underlying logic of science and discovery
Preferred
Experience with ML/deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, JAX, TensorFlow)
Familiarity with model architectures and training workflows (training loops, embeddings, fine-tuning, RL, or extending pretrained models)
