Through our platform, patients receive a holistic service offering to support their individual goals and needs.
In order to advance our mission to – “Enable Personalized Care for Every Cancer Patient,” we are seeking candidates for the following role:
UX Designer, Patient Experience
Job Summary
This is an exciting opportunity to help us elevate the experience that Navigating Cancer’s provides for cancer patients. Our patients rely on us to keep them connected to their care team and provide them with essential information about their treatment. Currently our patients are primarily using a desktop “portal” to access critical information about their care and communicate with their care team. One of our key initiatives in 2020 is to develop a new mobile-first patient experience for our most utilized portal features while supporting additional capabilities for patient engagement. As the design lead you will work closely with product, design, and development team members to accelerate our progress. To be successful you’ll need to be able to jump right into work that is already in development as well as help us flesh out the details of our longer term patient experience vision. The ideal candidate is able to develop solutions end-to-end starting with loosely defined user requirements all the way through to fit and finish with our development team. This position will be located onsite at the Navigating Cancer office in downtown Seattle.
