Build AI's Next Frontier
Biology remains one of the most consequential unsolved frontiers for AI. Join us in advancing the foundations of AI, with direct applications in human health, biological engineering, and biosecurity.
The Work
The foundational techniques to scale AI on biology
are still being invented.
At Radical Numerics, you’ll develop the architectures, representations, and training systems needed for AI to learn across biological signals and scales. This means solving fundamental problems in how models learn, reason, and generalize, and how we evaluate
what they understand.
You’ll work on these foundations of AI while staying close to their scientific applications. The models we build could help researchers understand disease, design new biological functions,
and strengthen biosecurity.
Solve Biology with us.

CULTURE
We Bet on the
Non-Obvious
Radical Numerics grew out of unconventional bets on problems others considered too hard.
We’ve questioned assumptions and pursued approaches the field doubted would work. That still shapes how we work today.
We look at problems from different perspectives, reason from first principles, and build from the ground up when existing approaches fall short. We test our ideas rigorously and change course when the evidence calls for it. Building something new requires taking an uncertain path and doing the work to find out where it leads.
[01]
Rigor
Clear hypotheses. Disciplined experiments. Evidence that survives scrutiny.
[02]
First Principles
If the existing architecture doesn't fit the problem, build another.
[03]
Collaboration
AI researchers, biologists, systems researchers, and numerical scientists working on the same problem.
[04]
Responsibility
Advancing biological intelligence and strengthening biosecurity together.
