Your Impact at LILA
Lila Sciences builds AI systems that accelerate discovery across the physical and life sciences. The Platform Engineering team owns the core infrastructure and developer-facing services that power Lila's AI Science Factory™ — including APIs, data pipelines, and the agentic systems that orchestrate scientific workflows at scale.
This co-op has two focus tracks. Candidates may be matched to one or both based on interest and fit:
Track 1 — Data Platform: Build pipelines and services that structure scientific knowledge (literature, patents, lab data) into signals that power Lila's AI models and applications.
Track 2 — Agentic SSR (AI and Server-Side Rendering): Build the server-rendered, agentic layer of the Lila Platform — the infrastructure that enables AI agents to compose and serve dynamic scientific interfaces at runtime.
In either track, you will ship production code, work alongside research scientists and ML engineers, and contribute to a platform that runs real scientific experiments.
