Clinical Scientist

We are seeking a Clinical Lead to join our growing US-based Behavioral Science team as the bridge between the behavioral science framework and clinical reality. Using BeSci frameworks, theory, and architecture as the foundation, the Clinical Lead provides the content, the safety boundaries, and the clinical judgment that determine whether the system’s outputs are not just theoretically sound, but practically safe and effective.

This role combines hands-on scientific and clinical support to the Behavioral Science (BeSci) team with the ownership of two external-facing functions: building and managing Clinical Research partnerships, and establishing and coordinating a Clinical Advisory Board.

Decision Logic Review: Develop and/or review decision logic according to system specifications.

Intervention Content Development & Validation: In partnership with the Content team, support intervention content development and validation — ensuring content is clinically accurate, has the appropriate claims citations, appropriately nuanced, and calibrated to the right level of health literacy.

Clinical Research Partnerships

Establish and Manage Partnerships: Establish and manage Clinical Research partnerships that support the organization’s scientific and clinical goals.
