At GSK, we are using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to develop new therapies and personalized drugs that drive better outcomes for patients at reduced cost with fewer side effects. Because the datasets we use and algorithms we build at each step of the drug development journey have safety and ethical implications for our patients, GSK has a dedicated team working on the responsible use of AI in healthcare. If this excites you and you want to be part of our team, we would love to chat.

We are looking for a researcher with a track record in successfully developing and publishing state-of-the-art AI/ML methods, preferably with a focus on large language models (LLMs), LLM-based agents, and their evaluation. In addition to outstanding ML engineering and research skills, ideal candidates will demonstrate a keen interest in ethical and safety aspects of using AI in drug discovery and the clinic.

The Responsible AI team is built on the principles of ownership, accountability, continuous development, and collaboration. We hire for the long term, and we are motivated to make this a great place to work. Our leaders will be committed to your career and development from day one. We strongly encourage applications from people with diverse and underrepresented backgrounds and perspectives.
