Chief Of Staff To The CEO

About TetraScience

TetraScience is the Scientific Data and AI Company and developer of the Tetra OS, the operating system for scientific intelligence. We are fundamentally reimagining and replatforming science for the AI era.

TetraScience's customers include many of the world's top biopharmaceutical firms; its growing ecosystem of strategic partners includes NVIDIA, Databricks, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Snowflake, Google, and Microsoft; and its venture capital backers include Boston-based Underscore_VC, global juggernaut Insight Partners, and Impetus Ventures (the CEO's fund).

In connection with your candidacy, you will be asked to carefully review and internalize "The Tetra Way" and "Unvarnished," each authored by our CEO, Patrick Grady.

It is impossible to overstate the importance of these essays, and you should take them literally as you decide whether our mission, culture, and expectations are right for you.

Everything you will need to understand about working at TetraScience, and for Patrick, can be found in these writings.

The Opportunity

The Chief of Staff to the CEO is a high-trust, internal and external role for a scientist-business athlete who wants to operate at the center of TetraScience's relationships with global customers, market-leading partners, and government agencies.

The role requires a fluid schedule, rapid responsiveness, and the ability to travel as needed to support CEO priorities. The role necessitates high clock speed, high bandwidth, insatiable curiosity, authentic humility, and continuous collaboration.

You will help Patrick focus on the few conversations that truly matter, then turn those conversations into structured follow-through that moves alliances, programs, and contracts from idea to impact.

This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys working behind the scenes but at the center of what's next in scientific data, AI, and policy-equally comfortable in a pharma boardroom, with a hyperscaler account team, or across the table from senior public-sector leaders.

What You Will Do

Amplify the CEO in the market

• Coordinate and support Patrick's engagement with executives at biopharma companies, major technology partners, and key government agencies and consortia.
• Prepare briefing materials, talking points, and post-meeting summaries that capture objectives, decisions, and next steps for every high-stakes interaction.

Own follow-through on critical relationships

• Turn meeting notes, emails, and Zoom discussions into clear action plans with owners, deadlines, and measures of success-and ensure they are executed.
• Track progress on strategic accounts, alliances, and public-sector initiatives, surfacing risks and opportunities early so Patrick can intervene where he adds the most leverage.

Connect science, business, and policy narratives

• Help craft compelling, concise narratives and materials for senior audiences on themes such as Scientific AI, the value of industrialized scientific data, and sovereign scientific AI.
• Synthesize input from scientists, commercial leaders, policymakers, and investors into options and recommendations that support CEO-level decision-making.

Support a disciplined operating rhythm around the CEO

• Collaborate with Patrick and his executive team to maintain a simple, effective operating cadence that aligns Patrick's time with TetraScience's most important priorities.
• Protect his schedule and attention, streamline information flow, and ensure he always walks into critical conversations fully prepared.
