Working Student – Brand & Visual Design

About ApherisAt Apheris, we are building the future of how AI is applied in pharmaceutical R&D. We enable leading pharmaceutical teams to discover and develop drugs faster. We host the industry’s largest federated data networks for drug discovery AI, spanning co-folding, ADMET, and antibody developability. Across these networks, models are trained on proprietary industry datasets to achieve higher performance and broader applicability while keeping data control and IP protected. We deliver these superior models through drug discovery applications that enable teams to run them at scale, further customize them, and integrate them into existing R&D workflows. • AI Structural Biology (AISB) Network: Pharmaceutical companies collaborate in the field of co-folding, structure-based binding affinity predictions and antibody design. • ADMET Network: Pharmaceutical and biotech companies collaborate to improve small-molecule property prediction and expand into further drug modalities. • Antibody Developability Network: Pharma partners collaborate to federate historical and purpose-built antibody developability data sets for secure ML training, without data leaving each partner’s environment. About the roleAs our Working Student – Brand & Visual Design, you will look after the Apheris brand day to day: keeping our templates and assets consistent, producing the visuals our commercial and scientific teams need, and improving how we present complex science to a technical audience. This is a hands-on role for someone with a sharp eye for B2B design who can work quickly without letting quality slip. Briefs will not always be complete, and priorities shift as we grow, so you will often shape the brief as much as execute it. The work moves quickly and you will usually have several requests running at once. We value pragmatism: knowing when a piece needs further polishing and when a good version delivered today is the right call.
