Junior Full Stack Engineer

About Chemify

Chemify is revolutionising chemistry. We are creating a future where the synthesis of previously unimaginable molecules, drugs, and materials is instantly accessible. By combining AI, robotics, and the world’s largest continually expanding database of chemical programs, we are accelerating chemical discovery to improve quality of life and extend the reach of humanity.

Location: San Francisco, US (hybrid)

The Role

We are seeking a Junior Full Stack Software Engineer to join the team building the software behind Chemify’s robotic synthesis platform. You will work across the stack on real features — from backend services to the interfaces scientists use — with senior engineers close at hand to review your work and help you grow fast.

What sets this role apart is the platform itself: a rare early-career seat where the software you write helps physically make molecules, not just move data around.

If learning fast across the full stack on a real-world platform sounds like the right shape of job for you, we’d love to welcome you to our team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and ship full-stack features under the guidance of senior engineers.

  • Fix bugs, write tests, and improve tooling across backend services and web front-ends.

  • Learn how the platform turns experiment definitions into robotic execution, and contribute to it.

  • Take part in code reviews, design discussions — growing your ownership over time.

About You

You are early in your career but serious about the craft — curious, quick to learn, and energised by hard problems. You ask good questions, act on feedback, and want to grow alongside engineers who will push you.

We expect you to bring:

  • 0–2 years of software experience (internships, projects, or a strong portfolio count).

  • Working knowledge of at least one backend language ([Python/C/C++)

  • Strong fundamentals and a genuine appetite to learn quickly.

  • Clear communication and comfort asking questions and acting on feedback.

Beneficial Skills

  • A degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field — or equivalent self-taught proof.

  • Any exposure to robotics, hardware, lab automation, or scientific computing.

Why Join Chemify?

Impact. Even early on, your work ships into a platform that physically makes molecules — you will see the results of what you build.

Autonomy. You will be trusted with real features from the start and given room to grow your ownership.

Ambition. We are a Series B deep-tech company at the frontier of AI, robotics, and chemistry — a place to learn fast, surrounded by people who will raise your bar.
