About Flagship Labs 110 (FL110)
Flagship Labs 110 Inc. (FL110) is a privately held, early-stage technology company developing a new foundation for understanding biology— one built on digital access to the proteome. Our goal isn’t just better data— it’s a new interface between biology and computation, where proteins become part of the digital world. This shift will redefine what’s possible in human health, drug discovery, and systems biology.
We're developing a next-generation platform to make proteins as readable, searchable, and actionable as DNA, using custom-designed sensors and advanced signal interpretation. By combining innovations in molecular sensing and AI, we’re enabling researchers to observe biology with a level of speed and resolution previously out of reach.
FL110 is backed by Flagship Pioneering, which brings the courage, long-term vision, and resources needed to realize unreasonable results. At FL110, we are uniquely cross-functional and collaborative. We are actively reimagining the way teams work together and communicate. Therefore, we seek individuals with an inclusive mindset and a diversity of thought. Our teams thrive in unstructured and creative environments. All voices are heard because we know that experience comes in many forms, skills are transferable, and passion goes a long way.
If this sounds like an environment you’d love to work in, even if you only have some of the experience listed below, please apply.
Your Impact at FL110
As a Computational Scientist, Signal Processing, your focus will be on applying signal processing and machine learning methods to large datasets generated by our technology platform.
