Graduate Student Internship - Antibody de novo binder design

Location: Mountain View, CA

Type: Full Time

Min. Experience: Student (College)

Adimab is the leading technology provider for therapeutic antibody drug discovery, focusing solely on our partnerships without pursuing an internal product pipeline. Since 2009, we have partnered with over 130 pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, generating more than 575 therapeutic programs, of which more than 75 have entered clinical trials.   
 

Role Overview: 
Adimab seeks a graduate student intern to contribute to projects aimed at generating de novo antibody designs for experimental testing in our platform. 
 

Requirements:

  • Experience in antibody: antigen structure prediction, computational binder design, or in silico methods for distinguishing native protein: protein interfaces, demonstrated through thesis work, presentations, preprints, or publications. 
  • Hands-on experience with AlphaFold, ProteinMPNN, and similar tools; proficient in Python, Tensorflow, and PyTorch. 
  • The ideal candidate has passed their PhD qualifiers and is 3-4 years into the program. 
     

Responsibilities 

  • Generate de novo antibody designs using applicable computational methods. 
  • Work with experimental groups to test predictions and use their feedback to refine the design process. 

Location, timing, and compensation 

  • Fully on-site with our Computational Biology group located in Mountain View, California.  
  • Start date in Spring/Summer 2025 for approximately 12-16 weeks. 
  • Competitive compensation and relocation assistance (if applicable). 

Come join us! 

Our integrated antibody discovery and engineering platform provides unprecedented speed from antigen to purified, full-length human IgGs with exquisite specificity and biophysical behavior. We offer fundamental advantages by delivering diverse panels of antibodies that meet the most demanding standards for affinity, epitope specificity, species cross-reactivity, and developability. We enable our partners to rapidly expand their biologics pipelines through a broad spectrum of arrangements for technology access. 

As a profitable privately held biotech company, we take a long-term view on value creation and make substantial investments in technology development, research, and our people.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability
Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026
Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
