What makes TetraScience a great place to do AI?
The core of TetraScience is helping Pharmaceutical companies organize, contextualize, and make their data accessible. This allows the Applied AI team to focus on building the tools to solve problems rather than focusing on the plumbing (the data is already AI‑ready). We are looking for people who want to use their skills to have an outsized impact, by building tools to accelerate the drug discovery process not just for one company but for many companies at once. We have a number of projects looking for someone to lead the AI project development, including ML‑reinforcement learning with large continuous datasets and developing LLM agent harnesses, governance, and evaluation metrics. While the team actively learns from each other and shares knowledge and best practices, it is expected that someone in this role is capable of working independently as needed and has the required skills to develop the AI/ML applications in at least one of these areas.
You will be a critical team member in a unique partnership to industrialize Scientific AI. As such, you will engage directly with customers onsite up to 4-5 days per week in the Boston region.
