A Genuine Ground-Floor Opportunity

Neuro Recovery Institute is a startup preparing to open in Portland, Oregon. To our knowledge, we will be the only outfit in the region focused solely on a medication-free, neurostimulation-based model for opioid withdrawal — no methadone or buprenorphine as the core of detox, just FDA-cleared technology that works with the brain's own chemistry.

That means the people who join us now won't be inheriting someone else's protocols. You will help write them. This is a rare chance to shape the clinical standard, the culture, and the science of a genuinely new kind of treatment center from day one.

Let's be straight with you

We are pre-launch. We do not yet have a physical location, and our clinical roles will open as we finalize funding and state licensing. We are not going to post jobs we can't yet fill. What we are doing right now is meeting the clinicians, researchers, and operators who want to help build this — so that when we open, our founding team is already in place. If that's you, we want to talk early.

Right now, we are actively looking for physicians and clinicians alike who are interested in joining us. If you want to be part of the founding team, reach out — we'd love to hear from you.

Why Join Us Now

🌟 First mover in the Northwest

Be part of the first Portland team dedicated entirely to medication-free neurostimulation detox — a model that is only just becoming possible.

🧠 Real science, real mission

Work with FDA-cleared technology grounded in documented neuroanatomy, helping people through the hardest part of recovery without new opioids.

⚖️ Honesty as a value

We reject the hype that has plagued this field. If you care about telling patients the truth and holding to the evidence, you'll fit here.

📈 Shape the protocols

Founding staff help define the clinical protocols, training, and research agenda — not just execute them.

Roles We're Building

As we move toward launch, we anticipate building out the following founding roles. Availability and timing depend on funding and licensing.

Medical Director / Physicians

Board-certified in addiction medicine, neurology, or a related field to lead clinical protocol development, oversee device-based detox, and ensure patient safety.

Registered Nurses (RN)

Experienced nurses — ideally with detox, ICU, or neuromodulation exposure — to run day-to-day patient monitoring, device placement, and withdrawal assessment.

Clinical Technicians

Hands-on staff trained to support device placement, patient comfort, and monitoring throughout the withdrawal course.

Researchers & Clinical Data Specialists

Help us collect outcomes honestly, contribute to the evidence base for auricular neurostimulation, and keep our claims tied to real data.

Care Coordinators & Recovery Specialists

Licensed social workers, case managers, and peer recovery specialists to coordinate aftercare, transitions, and long-term recovery support.

Operations & Administration

Intake, billing, compliance, and operations professionals to build the infrastructure of a new clinic the right way.
