About this role

AI Solutions Engineer – Life Sciences ➡️ Do you have a strong Life Sciences background and enjoy solving complex customer problems? ➡️ Have you built with AI, not just used it? ➡️ Want a customer-facing role where you can turn scientific and R&D challenges into practical AI-powered solutions? If this sounds like your next move, we’d love to hear from you. Role Summary: We have an exciting brand-new role as an AI Solutions Engineer to support our life science vertical.

You’ll work alongside Account Executives and Account Managers throughout the sales process, speaking directly with prospective customers to understand their scientific, R&D and data workflows, uncover what they’re trying to achieve, and design AI-powered solutions around those needs. This isn’t a role where you simply demo an existing product. You’ll be expected to build and tailor the solution for the customer — using Patsnap’s data, APIs, MCP capabilities and AI tools to create agents, workflows, prototypes and proof-of-concepts that bring their use case to life.

The brief is simple: Understand the customer. Build the solution. Prove the value. We’re looking for people who can bring together: Domain knowledge + customer-facing experience + real AI build capability A typical day could involve joining several customer calls, running technical discovery, building a prototype between meetings, demonstrating it live to a prospect, refining it based on feedback and, where needed, supporting deployment after signature.

You’ll sit at the point where Life Sciences expertise, AI and commercial problem-solving come together. Your role is to understand the customer’s world, translate their requirements into something technically viable, and help prove the value of Patsnap’s capabilities in a way that helps move opportunities forward. This is not a traditional software engineering role. You won’t be expected to build production software from scratch, but you will need to be technically confident, comfortable building independently and credible in front of enterprise customers.
