Summary
Maxim Attiogbe is a software engineer and MIT-trained AI specialist focused on structure-based machine learning for drug discovery, with six years of experience spanning industry and academic research. He combines production engineering at Stripe—working on Radar’s abuse prevention signals—with hands-on molecular ML research, including a docking-affinity model (R² = 0.76) and integration of diffusion generative models into docking pipelines. His projects bridge large-scale data pipelines, AutoDock Vina docking evaluations, and synthesizability-aware generation, reflecting strength in both applied ML and computational chemistry tooling. Early work at Broad Institute and MIT CSAIL shows a track record of improving predictive performance (SV detection AUC 0.8941) and deploying LLM-powered search over documentation. Based in San Francisco, he is purposefully building toward roles in AI-driven molecular design and prefers to focus inquiries exclusively on that trajectory. An MIT AI alum comfortable shipping production services and novel scientific prototypes, he blends engineering rigor with domain-specific research depth.
