You know this road. Walk it with someone who’s just starting.
OncoChat tells patients they’ll be guided by people who have been through it. You’re the person that sentence is about. We pair survivors with someone newly facing the same diagnosis — not a nurse, not a call center. You.
Three short steps, about five minutes. Every application gets a reply.
Your exact experience is the point. Matches are made by diagnosis — your exact subtype with the same subtype, whatever the cancer — because "someone like me" should really mean it.
Real work, treated like real work. Paid, trained, certified, supervised — a role, not volunteering with extra steps.
You're never asked to play doctor. Bright lines around medical advice protect you and the person you guide.
Be the person you needed on day three.
A few hours a week, from home, inside OncoChat. You hold a small number of relationships — people matched to you because you’ve lived what they’re walking into.
The conversations no pamphlet covers — port placement, telling your kids, the week after chemo one.
Questions for the oncologist, what to bring, what to ask again — so no visit is wasted on nerves.
You work inside their OncoChat — notes, prep, coordination — so everything you do is visible to them and their care team.
Anything clinical goes to a clinical supervisor the same day — one tap, and it's their weight, not yours.
This work can reopen things. We built the job around that.
A clinical supervisor reviews your work and is reachable whenever you need them. Mental-health support — including a step-back option, no questions asked — is part of the role, not a perk.
Caseloads are capped by design. You'll hold a few relationships well — never a queue. If it ever feels like a queue, that's our failure, and we fix it.
Structured, paid training before your first match, and a certification that stays yours. You'll know exactly what's expected — and what never is — before you meet anyone.
This is paid work — and we'd rather tell you the numbers in a conversation than bury them in fine print. Compensation is the first thing we cover in your screening call.
You’ll never be asked to play doctor.
These lines aren’t fine print. They’re why a patient can trust a Case Scientist completely — and why you can do this work without carrying a clinician’s responsibility.
Your experience, told as your experience — the most valuable thing you have.
Build the visit list together. The oncologist answers; you make sure the question gets asked.
Records chased, appointments prepped, the picture kept current — inside their OncoChat.
New symptom, medication question, anything urgent → clinical supervisor, same day, one tap.
Instead: help write the question their oncologist should answer.
Instead: share what helped you live with not knowing.
Instead: flag it to the care team the same day.
Instead: "here's what I asked when it was me."
Every line has a backstop. Training covers each one with real scenarios, your supervisor reviews the hard moments with you, and OncoChat itself helps you notice when a conversation drifts near a line — coaching, not surveillance.
Start your applicationWe’re starting small: a first cohort of 10–15 case scientists.
Matched by exact diagnosis, trained together, supervised closely. Every application gets a reply, and next steps begin with a 30-minute conversation — a chance for you to interview us, too.
Start your applicationThis role is for people who’ve finished active treatment. But if you already know you want to do this someday, tell us — many of the best case scientists start as people we walked with.
