Participant Coordinator (Contractor)
About The Position
FL127 is a privately held, early-stage company operating within the Flagship Pioneering ecosystem. The company is developing a first-in-category platform anchored in novel device technology, with the potential to transform how human health is understood and managed. FL127 is currently building its scientific and technical foundation through a rigorous, hypothesis-driven experimental program. We are assembling a lean, high-impact team of scientists and engineers who thrive at the intersection of hardware, software, and biology, and who are excited to build in an era when AI agents are first-class members of every team. The Role We’re looking for a detail-oriented Participant Coordinator to manage the logistics of bringing study participants on site. Our researcher conducts all hands-on experimentation; this role keeps the participant pipeline moving behind the scenes — identifying candidates, reaching out, and scheduling their visits. It is a part-time, fully remote contractor position of roughly 10 hours per week, with no in-person presence required.

- Ability to work independently and manage your own time within a ~10 hour/week commitment.
Nice To Haves

- Familiarity with human-subjects research practices or IRB processes.
Responsibilities

- Reach out to prospective participants by email, phone, or text to gauge interest and confirm fit.
- Schedule and coordinate on-site visits, aligning participant availability with the research calendar.
- Send reminders, confirmations, and any pre-visit instructions to keep no-shows low.
- Track participant status, communications, and scheduling in a shared system, and keep records accurate and up to date.
