About ReactWise
ReactWise is a software start-up based in Cambridge, UK, offering powerful no-code software for optimising chemical reactions. Using machine learning algorithms developed by the founders during their PhDs at the University of Cambridge, our software significantly reduces process development time, bringing novel drugs to clinical trials much faster.
Founded in 2024, we now have dozens of pharma clients across the globe, including On Demand Pharmaceuticals and Pfizer. As an early-stage start-up, we offer the opportunity to build software at the cutting edge of machine learning and chemistry, with short iteration cycles and the autonomy to shape the software development process.
The Role
We're looking for a junior/mid-level front-end engineer to join our small, fast-moving team in Cambridge, with hybrid arrangements available. You'll work closely with our founders and engineers to build beautiful, intuitive user interfaces that help scientists run complex experiments more easily.
This is a great opportunity to grow your skills in a supportive, high-impact environment, with lots of ownership and mentorship. No knowledge of chemistry is expected.
Key Responsibilities
- Build responsive, user-friendly front-end components using React and TypeScript
