I did a very brief stint on computational proteomics. That stuff is absolutely next level.

Amazing! What kind of things did you work on?

My job was mostly mundane machine learning: classification over very large categorical sets.
I never had anything more than a dim intuition of the serious chemistry going on before the bytes got to me.

I’m a big fan of what you folks are doing by the way.
Haskell (and Nix) people are fond of talking about “constraints as power”.

I was a contractor for like a month so I’m not at liberty to talk about the details.
There are a number of companies doing innovative things around quantifying proteins and their concentrations in various samples.
I had the privilege to rub elbows with folks working on such cool stuff.
