Company Overview : Terray Therapeutics is a venturebacked biotechnology company led by pioneers and longtime leaders in artificial intelligence synthetic chemistry automation and nanotechnology. We’re generating chemical data purposebuilt 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 creative and experienced scientist to join our Molecular Design group within the Computational and Data Sciences (CDS) team. The candidate will design combinatorial libraries for our platform and contribute to hittolead and lead optimization efforts across multiple drug discovery programs.
