​Biopharma Hack Day at AWS Builder Loft

​A full-day hackathon for builders working at the intersection of AI, pharma, biotech, clinical workflows, research operations, and regulated data-heavy environments.

​On Thursday, August 13, we are bringing developers, AI engineers, technical founders, researchers, and life sciences operators together at AWS Builder Loft in San Francisco for a focused Pharma Hack Day. The goal is to build practical prototypes that make pharma and life sciences work faster, safer, more observable, or easier to operate.

​This is a hands-on build day, not a passive panel. Bring a laptop, a concrete workflow, and a willingness to build with real constraints in mind: data quality, privacy, auditability, approvals, compliance, reliability, and human-in-the-loop review.

​What You Might Build

• ​AI agents for research and literature workflows

• ​Document intelligence for scientific, clinical, or regulatory materials

• ​Knowledge management and retrieval across pharma datasets

• ​Compliance-aware automation and auditability tools

• ​Clinical trial operations, site workflows, and patient engagement prototypes

• ​Medical affairs, field team, or internal enablement workflows

• ​Data extraction, normalization, and validation from messy sources

​Important Data Note

​Do not bring private patient data, confidential sponsor materials, or regulated data that cannot be used in a public hackathon setting. Use synthetic, public, sample, or properly de-identified data.

​Who Should Apply

​This event is for AI engineers, software engineers, technical founders, product builders, researchers, data scientists, healthcare builders, pharma operators, and life sciences teams working on practical AI workflows.

​You do not need to arrive with a full team or finished idea. You should come ready to build, test, compare notes, and demo something concrete by the end of the day.
