Member of the Technical Staff, Pretraining

Output Biosciences is a company focused on building a biological reasoning model that understands biology at scale. They are seeking a Member of the Technical Staff to advance the architecture and training of their foundation model, which involves designing architectures, developing training objectives, and running pretraining at scale.

Responsibilities:

• You will push forward the architecture and training objectives of our foundation model, designing approaches that are purpose-built for biological reasoning
• You will develop methods for the model to learn across multiple biological data modalities simultaneously, building unified representations of molecular biology
• You will extend the model's reasoning capabilities across biological phenomena, pushing what it can predict and understand about binding, molecular properties, and biological function
• You will own pretraining end-to-end: experiment design, distributed training on multi-GPU clusters, hyperparameter optimization, and iteration
• You will design evaluation frameworks that measure whether the model has learned real biological reasoning, not just statistical patterns in training data
