About Beneficial Deployments
Beneficial Deployments ensures AI reaches and benefits the communities that need it most. We partner with nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven organizations to deploy Claude in education, global health, economic mobility, and life sciences, focusing on raising the floor.
About the Role
We're looking for an Applied AI Architect to join Beneficial Deployments, focused on maximizing the impact of Claude in the life sciences. Our goal is ambitious: accelerate scientific progress from R&D through translation by an order of magnitude. That means making Claude the go-to tool for the life sciences ecosystem, from early discovery in academia to paradigm-shifting biotech to reimagining pharma pipelines.
This role combines technical expertise with deep relationship-building. You'll be the primary technical advisor for our life sciences partners, including flagship research institutions like The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) and The Allen Institute. You'll drive engagements from discovery through deployment, working closely with the life sciences segment lead and Applied AI Engineers to deliver impact. This role will be part of the founding Beneficial Deployments Applied AI team focused on bringing life sciences closer to the frontier.
Responsibilities
• Serve as the primary technical advisor to life sciences research institutions and mission-driven organizations throughout their Claude adoption journey. Partner with the segment lead to understand scientific workflows end-to-end and translate them into impactful solutions from discovery through deployment.
• Transform partners into AI-native organizations through Claude Code and Claude Science enablements and research and business process evolution, so they can operate more effectively and build for where AI capabilities are headed.
• Design and lead cohort-based accelerators to scale our expertise and impact across multiple institutions at once. Identify what's actually hard about deploying AI in life sciences and feed those findings back to product, engineering, and research.
• Spot patterns across partners to inform what we build at the ecosystem level, including MCP servers for domain-specific data sources, scientifically grounded benchmarks and evals, and reusable agent skil
