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 seeking technicians on our microarray preparation and imaging team. This team is the backbone of everything we do at Terray, as they are responsible for producing the ultra-dense microarray chips that power our entire discovery effort.

The technicians are responsible for each key step along this process, namely:

• Loading the on-bead libraries into microwell arrays on small chips
• Operating Terray’s proprietary, automated imaging and fluidics systems to identify the oligonucleotide sequence at each of the 32 million locations on each chip
• Analyzing the resulting data and determining which chips can progress to DNA-removal and screening

This work is critical to Terray’s mission and requires precision, attention to detail, commitment and a passion for transforming the way we find new drugs for patients in need.
