Company Overview

Terray Therapeutics is a venture-backed biotechnology company led by pioneers and long-time leaders in artificial intelligence, biology, medicinal 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

We are looking for a candidate who can optimize and improve the internal molecular design platform, tDesign, a Streamlit-powered web app that enables our molecular design and medicinal chemistry teams to interface with our in-house generative models.

Responsibilities include:

    • Modularizing code for appropriate testing, such that we can iterate rapidly while maintaining reliability.
    • Writing Streamlit user interfaces to make our algorithms easier to interact with
    • Writing data pipelines and optimizing the distribution of compute across on-prem and cloud compute environments
    • Working in collaboration with computational chemists, cheminformatics scientists, and machine learning engineers to translate algorithms into usable tools

Experience and Qualifications

Given the company’s size, anticipated growth, and fast-paced environment, the organization requires a candidate who can work effectively within the existing Engineering team and collaborate with other teams to further enhance our next generation drug discovery capabilities.

Part of Terray Therapeutics’ success is nurtured by a hands-on work environment where everyone is accountable, everyone is vested in a vision of excellence, and everyone actively takes part in the success of the business. Terray Therapeutics supports a positive work environment of engaged employees who feel appreciated, recognized, and free to be creative.
