What are the responsibilities and job description for the Associate Data Scientist position at BioSpace?
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: Terray is currently seeking a motivated and creative associate data scientist. As an integral member of our Computational and Data Sciences (CDS) team, the candidate will be responsible for analyzing data from our wet-lab and computational discovery platforms and for developing algorithms and informatics tools. More specifically, the candidate will be a member of the Platform Data team within CDS, which handles the data for tArray workflows including library synthesis, image processing, chip decoding, and screening.
