Company Overview: Terray Therapeutics is a venture-backed biotechnology company led by pioneers and long-time leaders in artificial intelligence, synthetic chemistry, automation, and nanotechnology. We’re generating chemical data purpose-built to propel drug discovery into the information age — and we’re doing it on a larger scale and faster than has ever before been possible. 

Our closed loop system generates precise chemical datasets at unrivaled scale that work seamlessly with AI to systematically map biochemical interactions between small molecules and causes of disease. Iterative cycles of virtual molecular design and experimentation power AI and machine learning models, which in turn guide the next cycle of design. With a chemistry engine that measures billions of interactions daily and becomes increasingly precise with every cycle, we can answer an unprecedented array of questions — deriving insights that enable us to predictably create drugs for patients in need. 

Position Summary: As part of Terray's dedication to innovation and a future-forward view of drug discovery, the ANT ("Assess New Technologies") department is developing the next generation of discovery tools to accelerate small molecule discovery and optimization.

A successful Scientist candidate will investigate new technologies across a wide range of scientific disciplines to develop ultra-miniaturized assays and accelerate drug lead optimization. We expect that the candidate will regularly interface with stakeholders across Terray to understand cross-department workflows and each department's unique objectives. The candidate will also be responsible for investigating the feasibility and costs/benefits of developing new technologies for the goal of collecting novel biological datasets.

Experience and Qualifications: Part of Terray’s success is nurtured by a hands-on work environment where everyone is accountable, vested in a vision of excellence, and actively taking part in the success of the business. Terray supports a positive work environment where employees can feel engaged, recognized and empowered to be creative.
