Associate/Sr. Associate Laboratory Automation Engineer

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 regenerating chemical data purpose‑built to propel drug discovery into the information age — and we’re redoing 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.
