Remote Nurse Navigator (RN) – Massachusetts

Our company is a venture-based, stealth-mode team committed to making cancer survivorship care as personalized, proactive, and human as it deserves to be. Too often, patients complete treatment and find themselves navigating a fragmented, uncertain path forward. We’re here to change that.

We are building a clinician-led, technology-enabled oncology survivorship platform that integrates evidence-based clinical frameworks, intelligent workflows, and diagnostics into an accessible, high-quality model of long-term cancer follow-up care. Our mission is to improve outcomes and quality of life for cancer survivors by creating personalized care pathways that extend well beyond treatment — and support patients throughout every stage of their survivorship journey.

THE OPPORTUNITY

As a Nurse Navigator on our Oncology Survivorship team, you will be the trusted guide cancer survivors turn to as they navigate life after treatment. You’ll serve as their primary clinical point of contact — educating, coordinating, and advocating to ensure they receive the right care at the right time.

This is not a traditional navigation role. You’ll work within a technology-enabled care model alongside physicians, advanced practice providers, and operational teams — helping shape and scale a survivorship program that sets a new standard for long-term oncology care. If you’re passionate about what happens after the last infusion, this is the role for you.
