About TETR

Five years ago, we started Masters’ Union; our vision: to redefine the landscape of business education. We posed a simple question: If aspiring doctors learn from seasoned physicians and budding lawyers learn from legal experts, why shouldn't future business leaders learn directly from industry experts?

After all, can a lecture on Accounting 101 truly compare to the hands-on experience of analyzing real PnL statements?

Today, Masters' Union has an unparalleled curriculum with faculty comprising Industry Leaders and practitioners unlike any other in the country. Our academic council includes CXOs, MDs, Eminent Public Leaders, and even Members of Parliament. In just four years of operations, our flagship PGP in Technology and Business Management has achieved remarkable success, surpassing the placement records of esteemed institutions like IIM Ahmedabad and ISB.

Masters’ Union is now ranked among the top 2 B-schools in the country based on placement records.

With our growing global recognition, we realized that the hands-on experience of building real businesses, which proved to be highly effective for students in India, could offer immense value to aspiring entrepreneurs worldwide.

Thus, the idea of Tetr was born.

Picture this: a business program that isn't just about textbooks and lectures—it's an adventure that spans 7 different countries, with each semester bringing a new destination and a wealth of experience. Imagine studying at iconic institutions like INSEAD, NUS, SDA Bocconi, and IIT and learning from some of the brightest minds in the business world like Dr. Edward Rogers (Former Chief Knowledge Officer, NASA), Mr. Faverie Stephane (Executive Group President, Estee Lauder) and Mr. Saud Swar (CBO, American Express, MENA). From launching eCommerce ventures in Dubai to tackling tech startups in Silicon Valley, our students traverse the globe, building businesses and making a tangible impact. At Tetr, the world is your classroom.

If this excites you, and you resonate with our vision, then we’d love for you to come and build with us.

About this role

Someone who has spent time outside traditional academia and is coming to us from a lab they spun a company out of, a clinical practice they left to build something, a venture that worked, or a venture that did not.

The ideal candidate does not only ask "what can we build here?" They ask why this problem has not been solved yet, what would have to be true for it to be solvable now, and whether a school is genuinely the right place to solve it from.

If you need the lab, the curriculum and the playbook to exist before you can start, this will be a frustrating role. If building all three is the reason you would take it, we should talk.

Specifically this role involves

Build Ventures Out of the Science

Work alongside the Founding Research Leads in computational biology and longevity to identify which research has commercial legs, and then do something about it.
Evaluate research output for venture potential across diagnostics, longevity, AI for biology and precision health
Build the path from a research finding to a company: validation, market sizing, regulatory reality, capital plan
Stand up and incubate ventures from inside the school
Bring in co-founders, early hires and first customers
Run the internal process that decides what gets built and what gets shelved

Build the Industry, Investor and Founder Network

Develop relationships across biotech, pharma, diagnostics and deep-tech companies, hospital systems, pathology lab networks, genomics companies, life-science investors, scientific founders and research institutes.
Much of this role is being credible in a room full of people who have built real things, then converting that credibility into partnerships, sponsored research, student placements and venture opportunities. You will also be the public face of the vertical: on stage, on podcasts and in press.

Build the Entrepreneurial Experience for Students

Tetr's students do not study business, they build one. The same has to be true here.
Design the venture-building track that runs alongside the scientific curriculum
Create real ventures for students to work inside, not simulations
Mentor student teams from problem identification to first customer or first filing
Teach what actually kills a life-science venture: regulatory timelines, capital intensity, clinical validation, and distribution through hospitals and labs
Bring your own network in as mentors, judges and first customers

Shape the Academic Vertical

Contribute to Bachelor's, Master's and PhD programme design on the commercial side: courses in bioscience commercialisation, regulatory strategy and life-science venture building, industry project and capstone frameworks, and admissions criteria for students who should be building rather than only studying.

Ideal candidate will have

8+ years of experience across life sciences, biotech, pharma, diagnostics, healthcare R&D, or venture building, with strong scientific/technical depth.
Proven 0→1 entrepreneurial experience—having founded, co-founded, or played a founding role in a health, biotech, diagnostics, or deep-tech venture.
Experience taking scientific ideas from research to commercialisation, including validation, fundraising, hiring, partnerships, and go-to-market.
A strong network across biotech, pharma, healthcare, diagnostics, research institutions, investors, and scientific founders.
Strong understanding of regulatory pathways, clinical validation, capital requirements, and commercialisation challenges in life sciences.
Ability to operate across scientific, commercial, investment, and academic environments, and mentor students and founding teams.
Exceptional ownership, communication, and relationship-building skills, with the ability to build a new vertical from scratch and represent Tetr externally.
