Job Description

• Lead Independent Research • Design, execute, and publish studies evaluating Doctronic’s clinical AI systems — including diagnostic accuracy, treatment appropriateness, patient outcomes, and operational performance. You will own the full research lifecycle from hypothesis through publication. • Build and Manage Academic Partnerships • Identify, cultivate, and manage collaborative relationships with academic medical centers and research institutions. Structure joint studies, negotiate data sharing agreements, and coordinate multi-site research efforts that lend external credibility and rigor to our evidence base. • Drive Health Economics and Value Demonstration • Partner with health economists and actuaries to develop and validate savings methodologies, cost-effectiveness analyses, and actuarial models. Translate clinical performance data into the economic language that payers, health systems, and regulators require. • Collaborate with Internal Evaluation Teams • Work closely with Doctronic’s internal clinical evaluation and data science teams to prioritize research questions, establish evaluation frameworks, and ensure that ongoing quality measurement feeds into the broader research agenda. • Shape the Research Roadmap • Help define what questions matter most — and in what order — to support Doctronic’s commercial, regulatory, and scientific objectives. Balance the need for rapid evidence generation with methodological rigor.

Job Requirements

  • Advanced degree in a relevant field (PhD preferred) — e.g., health services research, biomedical informatics, epidemiology, health economics, clinical research, or a related discipline
  • Demonstrated experience designing and leading applied research studies independently, with a track record of peer-reviewed publications
  • Familiarity with AI/ML evaluation methodologies in healthcare settings
  • Experience working with claims data, EHR data, or clinical operations data
  • Strong understanding of health economics concepts including cost-effectiveness analysis, total cost of care modeling, and value-based care frameworks
  • Ability to communicate findings clearly to both scientific and business audiences
  • Comfort operating in a fast-paced, resource-constrained environment where speed and rigor must coexist.
  • Prior experience in digital health, health tech, or a clinical AI company (Preferred)
  • Existing relationships with academic medical centers or health services research groups (Preferred)
  • Awareness of regulatory and payer evidence landscapes in digital health (Preferred)
  • Background collaborating with actuaries or health plan analytics teams (Preferred)
  • Familiarity with clinical trial design, pragmatic trials, or real-world evidence generation (Preferred)

Benefits

  • This is a rare opportunity to expand the evidence base for a company that has already validated its AI clinical systems and is operating them at scale.
  • You will have access to real patient data, real clinical workflows, and a leadership team with deep academic credentials and a genuine commitment to advancing the science.
  • Doctronic is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply.
