Based at our global headquarters in Ingelheim, Germany, you will bring together chemistry, analytics, data science, and digital innovation to develop AI and machine learning solutions for real research challenges. Your work will improve how scientific data is analyzed, how knowledge is accessed, and how digital workflows support researchers in their daily work. In close collaboration with colleagues across science, data, digital product teams, and R&D sites, you will turn emerging AI technologies into reliable, practical, and user-centered solutions. This Position is limited for 2 years. To make it easier to find our job advertisements, we use the usual designation "postdoc". Of course, this advertisement is not only addressed to applicants directly after completing their doctorate, but to all qualified candidates. Tasks & responsibilities * One of your key responsibilities will be to develop and implement AI-supported methods, particularly generative AI and machine learning, to analyze and utilize reaction data within the AURORA program. * In regard to model development, you will train AI models using our in-house reaction data database to identify relevant historical data and generate practical suggestions for new chemical or analytical questions. * Moreover, you will extract, structure, and prepare unstructured datasets to make scientific information searchable and ready for use in AI applications. * In addition, you will validate AI-generated suggestions in close collaboration with chemists and analysts from Research and Development to ensure scientific relevance and practical applicability. * Furthermore, you will support the operational integration of the developed AI solutions into Boehringer Ingelheim's existing AI infrastructure, working closely with IT and data science teams. * You will document the methods, models, and results developed and present progress clearly within interdisciplinary project teams. ## Related Videos - [Blueprints for Success: Steering a Global Data & AI Architecture](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1577-blueprints-for-success-steering-a-global-data-ai-architecture) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [Introduction to Azure Machine Learning](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/368-introduction-to-azure-machine-learning) - [Your imaginations is (no longer) the limit: how Generative AI empowers people to be creative](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/741-your-imaginations-is-no-longer-the-limit-how-generative-ai-empowers-people-to-be-creative) - [Geometric deep learning for drug discovery](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/264-geometric-deep-learning-for-drug-discovery) - [Data Science on Software Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/162-data-science-on-software-data) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [Stephan Gillich - Bringing AI Everywhere](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/489-stephan-gillich-bringing-ai-everywhere) - [What Industries Outside of AI Are Hiring The Most AI Experts?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/98-what-industries-outside-of-ai-are-hiring-the-most-ai-experts) - [Data Analyst Salary Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/277-data-analyst-salary-germany) - [MLOps – What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/125-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it)
