Young planets with mass measurements are particularly valuable in studying atmospheric mass-loss processes, but these planets are rare and their masses difficult to measure due to stellar activity. We report the discovery of a planetary system around TOI-6109, a young, 75 Myr-old Sun-like star in the Alpha Persei cluster. It hosts at least two transiting Neptune-like planets. Using three TESS sectors, 30 CHEOPS orbits, and photometric follow-up observations from the ground, we confirm the signals of the two planets. TOI-6109 b has an orbital period of P=5. 6904^+0. 0004-₀. ₀₀₀₄ days and a radius of R=4. 87^+0. 16-₀. ₁₂ R_. The outer planet, TOI-6109 c has an orbital period of P=8. 5388^+0. 0006-₀. ₀₀₀₅ days and a radius of R=4. 83^+0. 07-₀. ₀₆ R_. These planets orbit just outside a 3: 2 mean motion resonance. The near-resonant configuration presents the opportunity to measure the planet's mass via TTV measurements and to bypass difficult RV measurements. Measuring the masses of the planets in this system will allow us to test theoretical models of atmospheric mass loss.
