Job Description:
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 Therapeutics
