Head of Discovery
2 hours ago
Agteria is a full-stack biotech company on a mission to reduce 1% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. We are redefining what it means to discover and develop compounds using AI to make agriculture sustainable. We fail fast, learn quick, and value work ethic, integrity, and intelligence above all else in the people we hire.
We are a Stockholm-based startup currently developing compounds that reduce emissions in cattle, with ambitions to tackle broader agricultural greenhouse gas emissions, and are backed by some of the best investors within deep tech & sustainability.
We are now looking for someone to lead what comes next.
We're looking for a Head of Discovery to drive the identification of novel and known compounds to reduce GHG emissions from Agriculture, starting with the biggest emitters in livestock. You'll be the person deciding what we explore, structuring how we explore it, and moving fast to find what works.
This is a hands-on, high-autonomy role. You'll work closely with our CEO and AI lead, and collaborate with our research team – but you'll own the discovery agenda. You'll also help shape an internal AI-powered discovery platform, contributing to its development from a scientific and strategic perspective.
What you'll do:
Lead compound discovery through internal AI tools
Structure and manage the discovery workflow end-to-end
Decide which compounds and approaches to prioritise and test
Bring creativity and scientific intuition to identify promising candidates
Collaborate on the continued development of our internal AI discovery tool
Work with the Head of Science to ensure promising compounds move into validation
Help build the foundation for Agteria's long-term R&D engine
You've worked in AI-augmented R&D, ideally in drug discovery or a related field. You understand how to use computational tools and data to accelerate the search for effective compounds – and you're energised by the possibility of applying that experience to climate and agriculture.
You likely have:
5–10 years of experience in discovery, R&D, or a related scientific function
Experience working with AI/ML tools in a research or discovery context
A track record of moving fast and making decisions with incomplete information, preferably in a startup environment
The ability to structure ambiguous problems and drive toward outcomes
A deep curiosity and willingness to learn new domains (agriculture, animal science)
Nice to have but not required:
Background in agriculture, animal nutrition, or feed additives
PhD or advanced degree (but we care more about what you've done than your credentials)
We're a small team building something that matters. That means we need someone who:
Thrives in ambiguity and moves quickly
Works hard and takes ownership
Loves working with AI and sees its potential to transform R&D
Wants to be part of building a company, not just filling a role
Cares about the mission – reducing the climate impact of agriculture
This is a chance to lead discovery at a company with real commercial traction, a funded runway, and a mission that matters. You'll have significant autonomy, direct access to leadership, and the opportunity to shape how we find the next generation of emissions-reducing solutions.
If you're excited about using AI to accelerate scientific discovery – and want to apply that to one of the most important climate challenges of our time – we'd love to hear from you.
