About the role

Xaira Therapeutics is hiring on the X-Scientist team to build AI-powered systems that connect models, biology tools, and workflows. You will develop backend services, APIs, and developer tools to enable scientists to run analyses, inspect steps, and iterate results. You will work at the crossroads of AI, software engineering, and therapeutic discovery, building reliable, scalable solutions for long-running, multi-step workflows in a dynamic biotech environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
