Force Field Development at D. E. Shaw Research
D. E. Shaw Research is seeking outstanding scientists with expertise in force field development to join
our New York–based team. This is a unique opportunity to develop and work with transformative
technology in a dynamic, interdisciplinary environment.
Relevant areas of experience might include development of physics-based force fields, modeling of
polarization and quantum effects, novel parameterization strategies (for example, machine learning,
statistical inference, or multi-objective methods), ligand and small molecule parameterization, and force
field validation and verification. Specific knowledge of any particular area is less critical, however, than
exceptional intellectual ability and a record of creativity and accomplishment. Successful candidates will
contribute to the development of more accurate force fields for biomolecular simulation.
We are committed to fostering a stimulating, rewarding, and flexible work environment, and we offer
above-market compensation to candidates of truly exceptional ability.

D. E. Shaw Research is an independent research group that is pursuing an ambitious, long-term strategy
aimed at fundamentally transforming the process of drug discovery. We have developed a specialpurpose supercomputer capable of executing molecular dynamics (MD) simulations orders of magnitude
faster than was previously possible. Our current projects include investigations of proteins and other
biomedically relevant macromolecules as well as the development of computational chemistry methods
to enable more accurate and effective MD simulations.
D. E. Shaw Research does not discriminate in employment matters on the basis of race, color, religion,
gender, pregnancy, national origin, age, military service eligibility, veteran status, sexual orientation,
marital status, disability, or any other protected class.
