Job description

What is Ansible Health?

Ansible Health is a virtual multi-speciality medical group that 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, with a focus on heart and lung disease. We combine elite clinical expertise with cutting‑edge technology to deliver personalized, efficient care at scale. 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.

The Job at a Glance

We are seeking a superstar registered nurse (RN) 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.

What is the Role?

You will be part of a team led by a nurse practitioner with a mix of respiratory therapists and registered nurses to provide direct care via telemedicine to patients suffering from advanced chronic lung and heart disease. We treat an elderly patient population that is medically complex, very ill at baseline, frequently hospitalized, and often burdened by psychosocial challenges. You will collaborate closely with your medical team members, often speaking multiple times per day with the supervising nurse practitioners, physicians, and medical directors.

• Performing telemedicine visits with our patients to provide education specific to their conditions
• Assessing/triaging adult outpatients with multiple chronic medical conditions, with an emphasis on lung disease/heart failure.
• Coordinating care with primary care providers, specialists, and external care agencies
• Advocating for patients who are experiencing major social stressors by activating community resources to improve access to medications, transportation, healthy nutrition, and safe housing
• Working with your NP led team to serve as the continuous point of contact for patients and families across the entire care spectrum, ranging from transitional post‑acute care, to medical stabilization, to rehabilitation, to advanced care planning and dying with dignity
• Engaging with our interdisciplinary team of physicians, engineers, designers, and other care team members to continuously optimize the care we deliver to our patients

Intimately related to patient care, you will also play a role in promoting our program and answering questions from referring providers and practices as we become more established in your local community.

This versatile role requires you to wear many different hats throughout the week, blending aspects of medical care, education, case management/social work, marketing, and advocacy. We believe in nurturing these transferable skills within one individual, rather than creating silos of expertise across rigid professional categories. This is an unorthodox approach that challenges the current trend in healthcare, which has moved towards more and more specialization, leading to further care fragmentation. We believe that the future of healthcare rests in the hands of a new kind of cross‑functional clinician.

Here a few examples of our recent success stories:

A socially isolated 50-year‑old woman with COPD and several overlapping anxiety disorders was frequently seen in the ED with dyspnea related to panic attacks and psychological distress. Multiple psychotropic medications were added over time, leading her to feel like a "zombie" and drink 10 caffeinated soft drinks per day to compensate, which fueled a vicious cycle of anxiety. The patient's Ansible clinician connected her to a psychotherapist, convinced her to adopt a dog, and collaborated with her provi
