FL94 is a NewCo pioneering the discovery of protein editors as a new category of medicines. To reach this goal we are creating the industry’s first generative covalent chemistry platform foundationed on merging AI with a massively scalable proprietary data generation paradigm that will programmably create actionable covalent small molecules targeted to any protein class. Both small molecule modulation of canonical function (using mono-valent editors) and novel induced proximity-driven functions (using bi-valent editors) are in scope to treat diseases spread within the full human proteome, not just the currently ligandable.
Position Summary:
FL94 is seeking a motivated Proteomics Scientist to join our team. In this role you will be a critical member of a team responsible for establishing and integrating state of the art chemical proteomics technologies and workflows across all functions within the protein editing platform including integration with AI. The ideal candidate brings expertise in chemical biology with experience developing mass spectrometry workflows. Experience working with covalency, proximity-based modalities, and performing peptide-level proteomics analyses is preferred. Successful candidates will be able to thrive as a motivated member of a face-paced team. This individual will have demonstrated evidence of understanding and achieving expertise in new technologies, and a can-do attitude of overcoming challenges and moving projects forward with urgency. They will be interested in contributing at the bench and be dedicated to scientific development of themselves and their team.
