Description
About AQEMIA
AQEMIA is a next-gen pharmatech company generating one of the world's fastest-growing drug discovery pipeline.
Our mission is to design fast innovative drug candidates for dozens of critical diseases, such as immuno-oncology.
Our unique approach leverages quantum-inspired physics algorithms to power generative AI in designing novel drug candidates—without relying on experimental data.
We already delivered several drug discovery successes within our internal pipeline and through collaborations with pharmaceutical companies. Our most advanced programs are currently in vivo optimization.

- Proven ability to lead and deliver technical projects from start to finish
- Experience in designing and architecting complex software systems
- Ability to balance quality and fast iterations in a fast-paced environment
- Strong collaboration skills; ability to interact effectively with technical stakeholders
