Full Job Description
About the Role

Phylo launched publicly on the back of a $13.5M seed round co-led by Andreessen Horowitz

and Menlo Ventures/Anthropic. We have strong enterprise inbound, active deployments, and a

growing pipeline of pharma and biotech teams adopting Biomni Lab. We have proven the

motion. Now we are building the engine.

This is an early quota-carrying seat on a commercial team that is being built deliberately. You

will own a book of enterprise pharma and biotech accounts end to end and carry a number,

while partnering with our GTM leader, founders, and scientists to convert real momentum into

repeatable, expanding revenue. You will run the full cycle as a solution-minded seller: someone

who can sit in a pharma R&D meeting, understand the science, and design a proposal that

lands. You are here to close, expand, and help sharpen the playbook as we scale it.

What You'll Own
  • Carry a quota and own enterprise biotech and pharma accounts end to end: outbound, discovery, qualification, proposal design, pilot, close, and expansion.
  • Convert active pilots and POCs into committed, growing revenue, with a clear plan to move each engagement from evaluation to production.
  • Run a disciplined sales process using MEDDPICC to qualify hard, multi-thread, and forecast accurately.
  • Act as a solution owner: gather the scientist's problem statement, partner with the technical team to design a tailored solution, and present it back with credibility.
  • Multi-thread across R&D leaders, computational biology and data science teams, technical champions, procurement, and economic buyers.
  • Drive land-and-expand on a consumption model: identify usage growth, surface new use cases, and bring new teams onto the platform.
  • Keep pipeline hygiene and forecasting tight in the CRM, working fluently across a modern outbound and sales stack.
  • Feed market signal back to GTM and product to sharpen positioning, packaging, and the roadmap.


What We're Looking For
  • Proven track record closing enterprise deals in big pharma and biotech, ideally within R&D and the drug discovery process (target discovery, lead optimization, translational, and adjacent workflows).
  • Working fluency with MEDDPICC (or a comparable methodology) and the discipline to run it consistently across a complex cycle.
  • Experience selling a consumption-based or usage-based platform, with command of the forecasting and expansion dynamics that come with it.
  • Strong scientific literacy: you can discuss experimental design, evaluate data sources, and hold your own with R&D and computational biology stakeholders. Background in biology, computational biology, or biomedical science strongly preferred.
  • Intellectual curiosity: you go deep on both the science and the technology, ask sharp questions, and keep learning in a field that is moving fast.
  • Comfort navigating long, multi-stakeholder enterprise cycles through technical champions, procurement, and senior economic buyers.
  • Self-starter who thrives in an early-stage environment with limited reference customers and process that is still being written.
  • Excellent communication: crisp written proposals, clear presentations, and credibility in both the boardroom and at the bench.

Nice to Have
  • Experience at the intersection of AI/ML and life sciences: computational biology platforms, LLM-powered or agentic tools, or data analytics for pharma.
  • A repeatable track record of converting pilots and POCs into production at enterprise scale.
  • Prior startup or founding-team experience.
  • Existing network across biopharma R&D and biomedical data ecosystems.
  • Familiarity with knowledge graphs, multi-omics data, or biomedical NLP.
  • Fluency with a modern sales stack and a bias toward clean CRM discipline.

Why Join Us?
  • Competitive salary and equity share in building the future of biomedical discovery
  • Full medical, dental, and vision coverage, including free therapy sessions and eyewear stipend
  • 401(k) to help you build long-term financial security (US only)
  • Unlimited PTO to recharge when you need it (US only)
  • Lunch and snacks when you're in the office
  • Regular team offsites and company events
  • A culture of excellence and speed - we move fast, think big, and support each other every step of the way
  • Your work will directly impact our mission to 100X biomedical discoveries through AI
