About The Position

Ansible Health unites physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists, and tech experts from Columbia, Johns Hopkins, Google, Amazon, and other top institutions to revolutionize care for chronic disease patients. We combine elite clinical expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver personalized, efficient care at scale. Our team's groundbreaking research, published in leading journals like Nature and PLOS, demonstrates our commitment to innovation. Backed by Bessemer, First Round Capital, AlleyCorp, Breyer Capital, and Inflect Capital, we're a Series A startup partnering with leading healthcare systems nationwide. Our mission is to genuinely improve patient outcomes, not just optimize metrics. If you're passionate about transforming healthcare through technology, join our diverse team in making a real impact. We are seeking a nurse practitioner (NP) with a passion for caring for patients with complex chronic medical conditions, focusing on cardiac and respiratory disorders such as congestive heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We are searching for a compassionate, smart, and slightly rebellious individual who has found their true calling in patient care, and who is pulled towards using their heart, soul, and mind in new and creative ways. If you are a self-driven and intellectually curious learner with a growth mindset, we would love to hear about this in your cover letter. If you make flashcards for self-study when you encounter an unfamiliar medical term or drug name; if you ask a lot of questions (particularly, “why”); if you enjoy brainstorming about patient care with your colleagues; if you have a secret mental list of ideas for care improvement, and are looking for the opportunity to try them out; if you sometimes brush your teeth for too long because you are lost in thought about a patient case, we would love to interview you. We believe in the raw potential of an individual to become the best clinician possible when immersed in a supportive environment with high-quality mentorship.
