  • Our OmniTAC drug discovery engine furnishes molecules that co-opt existing cellular machinery to overcome therapeutic challenges, which have remained unapproachable to other modalities for decades.
  • Our Story A long-standing challenge in drug discovery is the development of molecules capable of modulating difficult or "undruggable" targets.

Responsibilities

  • We are looking for candidates who will bring a strong sense of ownership to drive their project areas forward, and we believe that you deserve to be compensated accordingly.

Company info

  • Work Hard/Play Hard. We believe time is our most valuable commodity, so we strive to create a culture that reflects this. We won't drag you through unnecessary meetings or email you at 7 PM on a Saturday. When we're at work, we're there to get things done, and when we're off, we're really off. 🌴

  • The most common mechanism of action for FDA-approved drugs is inhibition, but there are many other possible perturbation types whose potential remains unrealized.
  • General Proximity is a seed-stage drug discovery company developing a novel platform technology to solve this problem.
  • We make bifunctional drugs that induce the modification of drug targets by existing cellular machinery (rather than through direct modulation by the drug, the classical approach).
  • Historically, the development of technologies that allow one to push new buttons in biology has been an incredibly fertile field for the discovery of new medicines, and our technology holds the same promise.
  • High Agency.
  • Initiative, independence, and self-accountability are some of our most valued traits.
  • Enthusiastic.
  • We love people who are excited about what they are doing and are generally attempting to build a high-energy team.
  • Intensity and Grit.
  • Early-stage startups are hard.
  • Drug discovery is doubly so.
  • We are looking for candidates who have a demonstrated ability to stick with complex problems for the long haul, with a team that has your back along the way.
  • We are here to create life-saving medicines for the patients who need it most.
  • You should be, too.
  • Work Hard/Play Hard.
  • We believe time is our most valuable commodity, so we strive to create a culture that reflects this.
