What we offer
Boltz is a public benefit company building the next generation of AI-powered molecular modeling tools to make biology programmable and accelerate drug discovery, while keeping frontier capabilities broadly accessible.
Boltz-1, Boltz-2, and BoltzGen are open models trusted by 100,000+ scientists across biotech and academia, and used in programs at every Top 20 pharma as well as leading agrichemical and industrial research organizations.
We deliver these capabilities through Boltz Lab, our platform for running our latest models and design agents as reliable, production-grade tools. Boltz Lab is designed around real chemistry and biology workflows, so teams can start from a target and a hypothesis and quickly generate, evaluate, and rank candidate molecules. We provide the compute, the scalable infrastructure, and the collaboration layer, so scientists can iterate faster and stay focused.

As a Software Engineer in Product, you will build the user-facing systems that make Boltz Lab intuitive, powerful, and indispensable for scientists designing new medicines. Your primary responsibility will be to design and ship product features that translate advanced machine-learning and molecular modeling capabilities into clear, usable workflows.
You will work closely with product designers, ML researchers, and domain scientists to shape the end-to-end experience, from interactive interfaces and APIs to the underlying application logic that supports exploration, iteration, and decision-making. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and science, with direct impact on how researchers interact with and trust our models.
This role is ideal for someone who cares deeply about usability and clarity, enjoys turning complex technical systems into elegant products, and is motivated by building tools that scientists rely on daily in real drug-discovery workflows.
About you
- Strong experience building and shipping user-facing products in production environments.
- Solid software engineering fundamentals, with an emphasis on clean abstractions, maintainability, and testing.
- Experience developing web applications and APIs using modern frameworks and languages (e.g. TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Python).
- Ability to collaborate closely with designers and product partners to turn user needs into thoughtful technical solutions.
- Experience owning features end-to-end, from initial design through implementation, iteration, and maintenance.
- Strong communication skills and comfort working across engineering, product, and research teams.
- Experience building tools for technical or scientific users (e.g. developer platforms, data tools, or research software).
- Familiarity with ML-powered products or systems that expose model outputs to users.
- Exposure to computational biology, chemistry, or other scientific domains.
- Experience designing interactive workflows for complex data or model-driven systems.
- Prior experience in an early-stage startup or fast-moving product team.
- Opportunity to drive outsized real-world impact by building tools that empower thousands of scientists across the industry.
- Work alongside one of the most talent-dense teams in the field.
- Significant ownership and independence, with responsibility for driving projects from concept to deployment.
- Highly competitive salary with substantial equity ownership.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene
If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
