Co-founder & CEO, AI for predictable drug discovery and development

MiddleOn-site (San Francisco)Salary undisclosed
Job Description

Drug discovery is broken. We're building the AI that fixes it: a closed-loop agentic system that does the scientific reasoning end to end and returns predictions you can trace back to the evidence behind them.

We're looking for a founder and operator to join our technical and product founders. As Co-founder & CEO you take a built, already-used platform from spin-out through a competitive seed round and on to Series A. The company spins out of Deep Science Ventures over the coming months.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Drug discovery is one of the most important problems in the world and one of the least solved. Biology is complex; the useful data is sparse; the work runs in slow cycles of trial and error. Teams spend years and billions of dollars on development, and most of the time the drug still fails.

Brute force will not fix it: more compute and more data have not made biology predictable. Making today's process incrementally faster will not either, because that process is capped by what a human team can hold in their heads. What works is a different way of doing the science itself, an AI framework that reasons through it end to end, drawing on the published literature and the data and closing the loop with the wet lab. It's built around what today's agentic models are good at, and guarded hard where they fail.
