Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own and develop critical enterprise platform systems focusing on multi-tenancy, authorization, and the developer ecosystem. Build public APIs, SDKs, and integration paths for autonomous agents and internal scientists.
Requires 7+ years of backend software engineering experience with strong expertise in API design, multi-tenancy, and cloud infrastructure. Proficiency in Python, FastAPI, Kubernetes, and AWS is essential.
Lila Sciences is building the infrastructure for autonomous science - AI systems that design experiments, run them in physical labs, and close the loop across life sciences, chemistry, and materials science. Our platform enables this to operate reliably at scale for external customers who require security, auditability, and operational rigor.
We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer II, Enterprise Platform to own critical systems across two areas: the enterprise lifecycle (multi-tenancy, auth, auditability) and the developer ecosystem (public APIs, SDKs, MCP so customers and autonomous agents can interact with Lila's platform) that let customers and developers build on Lila. Our internal scientists across both physical and life sciences are first-class customers of this platform, so you'll build for them as directly as for external developers.
We move fast, ship weekly, and expect engineers who thrive in ambiguity, not ones who wait for requirements to be handed to them. You will own outcomes.
Enterprise infrastructure is foundational to making autonomous science deployable in the real world. The systems built in this role will determine how large organizations safely adopt, govern, and scale AI-driven scientific workflows across teams, data domains, and regulatory environments. You'll help build the platform primitives that make that possible.
We offer competitive base compensation with bonus potential and generous early-stage equity. Your final offer will reflect your background, expertise, and expected impact.
U.S. Benefits. Full-time U.S. employees receive a comprehensive benefits program including medical, dental, and vision coverage; employer-paid life and disability insurance; flexible time off with generous company wide holidays; paid parental leave; an educational assistance program; commuter benefits, including bike share memberships for office based employees; and a company subsidized lunch program.
International Benefits. Full-time employees outside the U.S. receive a comprehensive benefits program tailored to their region. USD salary ranges apply only to U.S.-based positions; international salaries are set to local market.
Lila Sciences is building Scientific Superintelligence™ to solve humankind's greatest challenges. We believe science is the most inspiring frontier for AI. Rather than hard-coding expert knowledge into tools, LILA builds systems that can learn for themselves.
LILA combines advanced AI models with proprietary AI Science Factory™ instruments into an operating system for science that executes the entire scientific method autonomously, accelerating discovery at unprecedented speed, scale, and impact across medicine, materials, and energy. Learn more at www.lila.ai.
Guided by our core values of truth, trust, curiosity, grit, and velocity, we move with startup speed while tackling problems of historic importance. If this sounds like an environment you'd love to work in, even if you don't meet every qualification listed above, we encourage you to apply.
Lila Sciences is committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status.
Information you provide during your application process will be handled in accordance with our Candidate Privacy Policy.
