About Massive Bio

Every cancer patient deserves access to treatment options. Massive Bio is an AI-powered precision medicine platform transforming how cancer patients discover and access clinical trials by eliminating the barriers of geography, financial constraints, and information asymmetry that have historically limited enrollment.  

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in US, Massive Bio is scaling its impact globally by powering operations across multiple countries and bringing innovative cancer treatment options to a rapidly growing and diverse population of patients. Through our proprietary AI platform, we connect individuals to clinical trials worldwide and partner with leading pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations (CROs), and healthcare systems to accelerate drug development and expand equitable access to cutting-edge therapies.  

About the Opportunity

Advanced cancer care is one of the highest-cost, most complex challenges facing U.S. healthcare payers today. Advanced-stage patients incur annual medical costs exceeding $100,000, yet many never receive guideline-adherent, personalized treatments. Massive Bio has built the only AI-powered oncology navigation platform that closes this gap at scale — combining real-time clinical trial matching, biomarker-driven decision support, and value-based care pathways into a single, payer-ready solution.

We are seeking a Manager, Business Development & Strategic Partnerships to drive our payer, employer, and government business development efforts. While we have existing partnerships in this channel, this role carries a strong build-and-execute mandate as we bring a new multi-agentic AI infrastructure to market. You will generate pipeline, develop target accounts, structure deal frameworks, and advance contracts across segments of the U.S. payer landscape — working closely with company leadership throughout the sales cycle.

This role also includes a government engagement dimension. Massive Bio has committed to the CMS "Kill the Clipboard" and Conversational AI pledges, and you will support the company's representation to CMS and federal agencies, helping ensure our platform is positioned within federal digital health modernization efforts.

Candidate Profile & Qualifications

Required

• Working knowledge of the U.S. payer landscape, including national carriers, BCBS plans, regional health plans, TPAs, major brokerages, and employer coalitions. Demonstrated ability to identify decision-makers, build relationships, and advance conversations within complex payer organizations. Existing contacts in this ecosystem are a strong advantage.

• Track record of developing new business in a channel or market where partnerships did not yet exist. Comfortable with ambiguity, prospecting from scratch, and iterating on go-to-market approaches without established playbooks.
