You are a mission-driven genetic counselor who thrives in fast-moving, interdisciplinary environments. You’re equally comfortable speaking with patients, interpreting variants, supporting clinicians, and jumping in wherever the team needs you — clinical, lab, customer success, or medical affairs. You bring empathy, scientific rigor, and operational excellence to everything you do. You may be early in your career or more experienced, but you are energized by the opportunity to build, learn, and take broad ownership in a startup environment.

This is a hands-on, high-agency role where you’ll deliver genetic counseling to patients and providers, contribute to variant interpretation, and support medical affairs and customer-facing activities. You’ll collaborate closely with clinicians, scientists, founders, engineers, and operations to ensure that our results, workflows, and patient experience are clear, accurate, and compassionate.

You’ll also help shape our clinical and laboratory infrastructure — from counseling pathways to curation workflows to documentation standards — in a regulated, detail-critical environment. We’re a remote team with quarterly off sites and other travel.

Juniper Genomics is a venture-backed start-up using genomics and modern data science to improve IVF success rates and access, reducing the burden of trying to conceive. We recently launched our first product: a whole-genome preimplantation genetic test (PGT-G). We are a team of experts in genomics, medicine, ethics, and business; and we’re committed to rigorous science paired with thoughtful ethics, kindness, honesty, and respect for families’ informed decisions.

You will find us to be supportive, flexible, vulnerable, passionate, and consensus-oriented. No Rules Rules, 5 Dysfunctions, Turn the Ship Around, Radical Candor.
