Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.
This role is on the Intercept team within Public Goods at Stripe, which also houses Frontier. Respiratory viruses kill 1 million people a year, cost us $600B annually, disrupt everyday life, and periodically threaten civilization. Recent breakthroughs may make it possible to develop and deploy broad-spectrum preventatives and air cleaning technologies that defend against common respiratory infections. Intercept is a $500M philanthropic initiative that aims to radically reduce the burden of respiratory infections, and eventually eliminate them altogether. It’s part of Public Goods at Stripe, which also houses Frontier.

Intercept is looking for a strategic, execution-oriented life sciences operator to join our team.
We are laser-focused on making sure the portfolio of broad-spectrum preventatives needed to radically reduce the burden of respiratory viruses exists. Our goal is to advance 2+ products that meet our target product profile through Phase 2. We make both grants and investments, using the most capital-efficient tool to advance our target product profile.
This role will focus on sourcing and diligencing pipeline opportunities to select the most promising broad-spectrum preventatives that meet our target product profile (TPP), developing views on the most promising approaches, identifying new cutting edge areas of science, mapping key technical and clinical/regulatory bottlenecks, developing plans to de-risk them, and managing the grant/investment process from intake to diligence to award select to post-award monitoring. There will be a need to borrow from past product development experiences to expeditiously advance the portfolio, including mapping out known and new pathways for acceleration from discovery to FIH trials and to accelerate projects towards key discovery or product development inflection points.
We need someone who can (1) evaluate the quality and value of the science for impact vs probability of success, and (2) zoom out to synthesize what that means for our capital deployment plan and long-term goals. A successful candidate will be action-oriented and comfortable working independently (vs. waiting to be told what to do) and a great communicator who can translate complex science for diverse audiences.
Intercept is a small team; you'll work with the entire team, under Intercept’s Head of Science, many partners, and wear many hats. You'll own specific outcomes end-to-end and have a chance to contribute to BSP strategy over time.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
