We’re seeking a Solutions Architect to join us in our mission to improve human health and quality of life through the development, distribution, and application of advanced computational methods.

As a member of our Solutions Architecture team, you’ll work directly with top-tier customers, scientists, and developers to deploy, configure, and tune the company’s high-end suite of molecular modeling and informatics applications and related systems. You’ll also maintain Schrödinger’s internal scientific computing resources and work with highly skilled individuals within challenging software environments. In your conversations with our Product Managers, you’ll be the voice of the customer.

If you don’t consider yourself an expert in all of the fields below, that’s OK - we’re looking to hire an adaptable polymath who’s excited to learn on the job. Our team will be happy to help you get up to speed in any unfamiliar areas.

Who Will Love This Job
  • A desktop and HPC technology enthusiast who’s worked with distributed resource management systems, application deployment systems, networking, etc.
  • A passionate engineer who understands web-based applications (i.e., REST APIs, data ETL, SQL databases)
  • A problem-solver with excellent diagnostic and troubleshooting skills
  • An excellent communicator who’s willing to travel to customer sites
  • A driven and enthusiastic learner who’s excited about investigating performance issues, recommending improvements, and picking up new skills in the IT and (eventually) scientific realms
What You’ll Do
  • Ensure that our software performs optimally in the customer environment (which ranges from small desktop setups to sophisticated HPC and cloud environments)
  • Design and implement optimal deployment strategies and interfaces for integration into customer systems and technologies
  • Help customers tackle thorny technical issues by cooperating on creative, customized solutions
  • Work closely with customers on the installation, configuration, and update/maintenance of on-premises or cloud-hosted installations
  • Collaborate with product managers, scientists, and developers to improve the deployment, support, and configuration aspects of our applications
  • Partner with our global IT team to support and improve Schrödinger’s internal infrastructure
What You Should Have
  • Extensive experience with the Linux OS and proficiency in a scripting language like bash or python
  • Good background in working with infrastructure as code and automation management
  • Cloud computing expertise and familiarity with at least one major resource provider (i.e., GCP, AWS, Azure)
We’d Prefer To Hire Someone Who Has
  • An extensive background in research informatics and/or organic chemistry
  • Deep expertise in relational database management systems, preferably PostgreSQL
  • An understanding of GPGPU computing
  • Familiarity with containerization technologies like Docker and/or Kubernetes
  • Advanced networking experience (e.g., DNS, routing, firewalls, proxies, VPCs, NAT gateways)
  • Some research data management background in the pharmaceutical industry (or another scientific space)
  • An interest in life sciences and/or physics (a formal academic background in the classical sciences is a plus!)
As an equal opportunity employer, Schrödinger hires outstanding individuals into every position in the company. People who work with us have a high degree of engagement, a commitment to working effectively in teams, and a passion for the company’s mission. We place the highest value on creating a safe environment where our employees can grow and contribute, and refuse to discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious belief, sex, age, disability, national origin, alienage or citizenship status, marital status, partnership status, caregiver status, sexual and reproductive health decisions, gender identity or expression, or sexual orientation. To us, "diversity" isn’t just a buzzword, but an important element of our core principles and key business practices. We believe that diverse companies innovate better and think more creatively than homogenous ones because they take into account a wide range of viewpoints. For us, greater diversity doesn’t mean better headlines or public images - it means increased adaptability and profitability.
