About Pilgrim:
Pilgrim is building America’s biology prime - engineering, manufacturing, and deploying advanced biotechnology for defense and national security. Our primary platform, ARGUS, is a fully autonomous system for detecting biological threats in near real time, from naturally occurring pathogens to engineered agents.
We engineer hardware for biology, turning breakthrough science into fielded capabilities. Based in Redwood City, our team brings together mechanical and electrical engineering, chemistry, and biology under one roof to deliver critical technologies to the people who need them.
Pilgrim has raised over $30 million to date and is backed by Peter Thiel, Brian Armstrong, Fred Ehrsam, Dylan Field, and Bryan Johnson, alongside Buckley Ventures, Conviction, Cantos, and others.
About the Role:
As a Pathfinder at Pilgrim, you’ll take on important problems that don’t map to an existing role. You’ll define what needs to be done, own the work through completion, and then move to the next challenge. Expect compressed timelines and travel to demanding field environments.
This is also our general application. If you don’t see a posted role that fits, tell us what you’ve built, what you can solve, and what you’d bring to Pilgrim.
