## Job description

Schrödinger seeks an Infrastructure Developer to join us in our mission to transform the discovery of therapeutics and materials.

As a member of our Infrastructure team, you’ll play a key role in supporting scientific testing and scientific validation that runs at scale. Our strength is science, but we couldn’t have advanced scientific innovation without a set of foundational engineering principles. A robust underlying technical platform is critical to the success of the company.

Who will love this job:

- A cloud computing pro at the AWS associate level or equivalent
- A Linux enthusiast familiar with either Windows or macOS (or willing to learn more)
- An Infrastructure as Code proponent with experience migrating legacy infrastructure to management with tools like Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible
- A continuous integration specialist (e.g. GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or buildbot) proficient at building, maintaining, improving, and debugging workflows
- An excellent verbal and written communicator

What you’ll do:

- Create and maintain infrastructure for large-scale scientific testing on the cloud
- Automate build, deployment, and testing workflows to drive drug discovery and materials development forward
- Provide a stable platform that enables the work of scientific software developers

What you should have:

- At least two years of experience with infrastructure development
- An interest in supporting scientific research and technical innovation

Pay and perks:

Schrödinger understands it’s people that make a company great. Because of this, we’re prepared to offer a competitive salary, equity-based compensation, and a wide range of benefits that include healthcare (with dental and vision), a 401k, pre-tax commuter benefits, a flexible work schedule, and a parental leave program. We have a company culture that is relaxed, but engaged, and over a month of paid vacation time.  Our Office Management team also plans a myriad of fun company-wide events. New York is home to our largest office, but we have teams all over the world. Schrödinger is honored to have been included in Crain's New York Best Places to Work, BuiltIn's NYC Best Place to Work, and Newsweek's list of America's 100 Most Loved Workplaces.

Estimated base salary range: $105,000 - $230,000. Actual compensation package is dependent on a number of factors, including, for example, experience, education, degrees held, market data, and business needs. If you have any questions regarding the compensation for this role, do not hesitate to reach out to a member of our Strategic Growth team.

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, sexual orientation, or any other protected characteristic. 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.
