Stealth Biotech information

What are the unique challenges of working at a stealth biotech company?

Working at a Stealth Biotech company often involves operating in a highly confidential environment where active projects and discoveries are not publicly disclosed until specific milestones are achieved. Team members need to balance rigorous scientific work with strict information security protocols, which can add complexity to daily operations. You may encounter rapidly changing priorities and the need to pivot your focus as new data emerges or company strategies shift. Collaboration with a small, skilled team is typical, allowing for significant hands-on experience, but also requires flexibility, resourcefulness, and strong trust among colleagues.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the stealth biotech position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a Stealth Biotech role, candidates typically need a strong background in life sciences or biotechnology, advanced research skills, and usually a graduate-level degree such as a PhD or MS. Familiarity with specialized laboratory equipment, data analysis software, and adherence to regulatory compliance standards like GLP or GMP is often required. Excellent collaboration, adaptability, and the ability to work discreetly are critical soft skills in this environment. These abilities are crucial as the work often involves confidential research and fast-paced innovation within a highly specialized and secretive setting.

Job description

The Role
Output has built a biological reasoning model that understands biology at the scale and complexity life actually operates. Our model independently learned the principles of molecular interactions, opening up drug treatments that were previously impossible. We're already generating therapies that traditional approaches cannot reach. The hardest problems in both AI and biology are being solved here, and there is room for you to own one.
Output is currently in stealth, operated by a team of repeat founders and biotech veterans with multiple exits in AI x Bio, and backed by top-tier VCs including Y Combinator.
You are a drug hunter. You own the scientific strategy behind Output's drug discovery programs. You help select targets for our pipeline, evaluate what the models generate, and make the scientific decisions that advance candidates from computational generation to real-world testing.
  • You will identify and evaluate therapeutic targets, building the scientific rationale for which programs to pursue and why
  • You will analyze model outputs to assess drug candidates, evaluating biological plausibility, therapeutic potential, and readiness for advancement
  • You will prioritize candidates and make scientific go/no-go decisions, advancing the strongest compounds through the discovery pipeline
  • You will manage CRO partnerships for candidate synthesis and biological testing, designing experiments that validate or refine drug design hypotheses
  • You will work closely with the founders and model team, bringing drug discovery expertise to model evaluation and development priorities
  • You will stay current with target biology, disease mechanisms, and the clinical landscape across relevant therapeutic areas

About You
  • You have a PhD in pharmacology, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, computational biology, or a related field with 5+ years of drug discovery experience in pharma or biotech, or equivalent depth through extensive industry experience
  • You have hands-on experience advancing drug discovery programs through pipeline stages: target selection, hit identification, hit-to-lead, and lead optimization
  • You have demonstrated experience evaluating drug candidates and making scientific go/no-go decisions on real programs
  • You are comfortable working directly with computational model outputs and analyzing AI-generated molecular data
  • You have strong scientific judgment across target biology, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic modalities
  • You can build and defend a scientific rationale, communicate across disciplines, and make decisions under uncertainty

Bonus Points
  • You have experience with AI-driven drug discovery or computational drug design tools
  • You have experience managing CRO relationships for synthesis and biological testing
  • You have experience across multiple therapeutic areas or modalities, including small molecules and peptides
  • You have a track record of advancing compounds into preclinical or clinical development
  • You have programming skills in Python, with the ability to work with data analysis tools and model outputs hands-on
  • You have publications at top-tier venues or relevant drug discovery and medicinal chemistry journals

What We Offer
We encourage new and different ideas, creativity and contrarian thinking
  • Healthy feedback focused environment to help you strive. Leadership will have high expectations, regularly share constructive feedback, support you and help you grow, and welcome receiving feedback and ideas from you
  • You own your day-to-day management. What we care about is that we all hit our milestones
  • Competitive salary and equity in a growing, well-funded startup
  • Excellent medical, dental, and vision coverage
