About the role
- Own the product lifecycle for tDesign, defining a roadmap that aligns with Terray’s high-level scientific and business goals.
- Present regularly to executive leadership and key stakeholders on product impact and strategy.
- Deeply understand the workflows of medicinal chemists, molecular design scientists, and small molecule program leads to improve and build features that solve real friction points in the design-make-test-analyze (DMTA) cycle.
- Translate complex internal scientific tools into intuitive, resilient user experiences suitable for broader deployment beyond the original development context.
- Act as the primary bridge between scientific stakeholders and engineering/AI teams.
- Partner with scientific stakeholders to ensure technical specifications accurately translate and support biological and chemical realities and drive alignment across the organization.

- A track record of shipping highly reliable, robust software in an agile environment, balancing long-term vision with immediate scientific needs.
- Experience transitioning complex internal tools into external-facing enterprise products, including scoping requirements, defining SLAs, and managing expectations for sophisticated external clients (such as large pharmaceutical or enterprise partners).
- Proven ability to partner closely with Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) and DevOps teams to architect and deliver highly available software.
- Deep understanding of best practices surrounding data privacy, security, and enterprise governance, specifically concerning the ingestion, segregation, and management of highly sensitive, proprietary third-party datasets.
- The ability to balance the immediate, fast-paced needs of internal scientific stakeholders with the architectural and UX requirements needed to eventually support a broader, external user base.
