Who tends to thrive here

You've done real work in at least one of these areas (not all of them, just one or two where you're genuinely strong):

• Microbiology, metagenomics, metabolomics, or multi-omic data science

• Machine learning, particularly generative models, representation learning, or biological foundation models

• Data engineering, pipeline architecture, or infrastructure for scientific computing

• Wet lab operations, assay development, or high-throughput screening

• Commercial and business operations in biotech or deep tech (partnerships, GTM, fundraising support)

• Scientific communications, technical writing, or community building in bio/AI

You probably also share a few traits with the rest of the team: you're comfortable with ambiguity, you default to building rather than asking for permission, and you'd rather ship something imperfect on Tuesday than present something polished on Friday.

Why Join Outpost Bio?

• You'll own real equity in what you build. We offer meaningful ISO/EMI stock options because we believe the people building this company should share in what it becomes. We want teammates who think like owners, and we structure compensation to reflect that.

• Outstanding benefits. Full medical, dental, and vision coverage from day one (Outpost covers 100% of employee premiums). Pension/401(k) with match. 25 days PTO plus your birthday off. Short- and long-term disability.

• A Lab-in-the-Loop feedback cycle. Wet lab experiments, computational analysis, and AI model development run on the same cadence. Your work feeds directly into the platform, and you'll see results in days, not years.

• Small team, outsized reach. You're joining an early-stage team backed by top-tier investors with deep connections across AI and bio. The work you do here will directly shape how pharma and consumer companies understand molecule-microbiome interactions.
