Scientist/Senior Scientist, Medicinal Chemistry

General Proximity is a seed-stage startup developing next-generation induced proximity medicines (IPMs). The OmniTAC drug discovery engine creates molecules that co-opt cellular machinery to address undruggable targets unapproachable for decades. We seek a first-rate medicinal chemist to pioneer this frontier.

As a founding member of the Chemistry/Drug Discovery Team, you will supervise synthetic efforts with CROs and perform in cellulo assays. Design and optimize first-in-class bifunctional molecules while collaborating on patents and mechanistic studies. Spearhead exploration into new disease areas with Platform and Drug Discovery Teams.

Join a high-energy team valuing high agency, initiative, independence, and self-accountability. Bring enthusiasm, intensity, grit for tackling complex early-stage challenges, and a prosocial drive to create life-saving medicines. Work in an environment pushing new buttons in biology for novel therapeutics.

This role offers the chance to develop core drug discovery technology and generate a novel class of therapeutics. Contribute to historically fertile fields yielding new medicines by inducing target modification via cellular machinery. Build with a supportive team on undruggable target solutions.
