Join our team and help build the world's first biological reasoning model. Work with us to build generative foundational models that decode biological systems across scales - from molecules to organisms - enabling us to predict, understand, and program living systems in ways never before possible.

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.

As a Machine Learning Research Scientist, you'll work alongside our founders and team members bridging biology and AI to develop AI systems capable of complex biological reasoning across multiple scales and data modalities.

• You will train and scale innovative multimodal AI models on large, diverse biological datasets across distributed GPU clusters
• ⁠You will innovate on cutting-edge machine learning algorithms to enhance model performance and biological understanding
• You will design and conduct experiments to validate the model's capabilities across a wide range of biological phenomena, from molecular interactions to complex cellular processes and beyond
• You will train and scale innovative AI models using large, diverse biological multi-modal datasets across distributed GPU clusters
• You will solve challenging AI research problems at scale, tackling key aspects such as model architecture and scaling, pre-training and fine-tuning strategies, and rigorous evaluation methods
• Your work will span various advanced generative AI architectures, including transformers, diffusion models and autoencoders, exploring and implementing these techniques to push the boundaries of biological AI
