Job Description

Natural Cycles° is a leading women’s health company that developed the world’s first birth control app, used by millions globally. We are a fast growing startup, and we promote an international working environment filled with smart and ambitious colleagues based in Stockholm, Geneva, New York, and remotely. Our mission is to pioneer women’s health through research and passion, empowering every woman with the knowledge she needs to take charge of her health.

As a Research Operations Intern, you'll provide hands-on support for our research studies. You'll keep things running smoothly day-to-day by troubleshooting devices, keeping inventory in order, and making sure every participant has a good experience from their first email to their last.

This is an entry-level role, ideal if you're early in your career and want to see how hardware trials at Natural Cycles work in practice. You don't need prior experience in clinical research. What matters most is that you're organized, reliable, and enjoy solving practical problems.

You'll work closely with the MAD (Medical Algorithm and Data) team and collaborate with Hardware, Finance, IT, and HR. Research and trials workload fluctuates, so we're looking for someone comfortable switching gears to collaborate with other teams if needed.

Please note that this is a one-year contract role based in the Stockholm area, with a start date in December.

What you will be doing

  • Troubleshoot: help participants solve device and app issues, test devices yourself, and figure out what went wrong when something doesn't work. Forward feedback to stakeholders in a structured and organized manner.
  • Look after devices and inventory: keep track of stock, prepare and ship devices and materials, and keep inventory records accurate and up to date.
  • Support participants by answering questions, scheduling calls when needed, and sending follow-up messages in a clear, professional, and friendly way.
  • Keep track of the details: check that signed documents are collected and stored in accordance with the internal protocol, monitor that participants are sharing data as expected, and flag anything that looks off.
  • Help with onboarding: schedule participants and prepare materials.
  • Run offboarding: guide participants through the end of a study, collect devices and materials, and coordinate with Finance so compensation is paid.

What skills and experience we think you have

  • You have a track record of taking responsibility and keeping things organized. This can come from a part-time job, volunteering, a student association, organizing events, coaching, or a similar role, paid or unpaid. Technical customer support role experience is a plus.
  • You're structured and like having systems: checklists, spreadsheets, and clear documentation.
  • You have strong attention to detail and easily spot small mistakes.
  • You enjoy troubleshooting and have the patience to help people who aren't comfortable with technology.
  • You explain things clearly and simply, both in writing and in conversation.
  • You can juggle several tasks at once without losing track.
  • You stay focused on priorities, even when plans change.
  • You're fully proficient in English, spoken and written.
  • You care about women's health and are curious about research.
  • You're comfortable with flexible scheduling, collaborating with multiple teams, and a varying workload.
  • You're based in the Stockholm area and available to start in December for a one-year contract.

What we offer

  • Flexible work arrangement - you will be part of a team based in and around Stockholm that values effective collaboration and transparent communication, irrespective of work location.
  • Professional development - you will work alongside knowledgeable colleagues in the continuous growth and skill enhancement environment.
  • Modern technology - you will leverage innovative technologies and tools, within an environment that empowers you to contribute ideas and take ownership of your work.
  • Impactful projects - you will contribute to groundbreaking projects that redefine industry standards and create tangible value.
  • Commitment to quality - you will join a dynamic and progressive organization that prioritizes profitable, long-term product development.

Location

Most trial operations happen on-site, so being in the office regularly is essential. That said, when the work allows for occasional remote days, we’re glad to make use of that flexibility.

About Natural Cycles°

We have developed the only digital method of birth control cleared by regulators both in the US and in Europe. Effective, natural, and backed by clinical research - Natural Cycles has been cleared by the US FDA and CE marked in Europe. Today we have a growing user base, who are happy to have found a method of birth control that is right for them and that allows them to get to know their bodies and cycles. No matter what your choice is, we believe that every woman should know that understanding how your cycle works matters.

Natural Cycles was created when our founders, Elina and Raoul, were in search of an effective method of natural birth control. Their journey took them from physics straight into health tech for women. The couple were unsatisfied with what they found, so they decided to apply their experience and knowledge in advanced mathematics and data analysis to develop a solution to meet their needs. This turned out to be an algorithm that detects and predicts ovulation and fertility.

In the early days, they used the algorithm for their own purposes but quickly realized that there was a vast unmet need for this type of method. They decided to develop a mobile app so women from all over the world could easily access and use Natural Cycles.

Our company has been up and running since 2013 and has been rapidly growing since our CE certification in February 2017. At Natural Cycles we are always looking for passionate talents to help us strive for change in such a complex, scientific, and controversial field. We have women's best interest at heart and work hard every single day to ensure that we provide the best possible solution. That’s why each and every team member is passionate about what we do.

Gathered from all corners of the world we are a tight-knit international team located right in the center of beautiful Stockholm. If you would like to join us, check our open job positions below, go ahead and connect with us.
