ABOUT UPDOC
At UpDoc https://updoc.ai/, we are building the first clinically validated, physician-supervised AI agent that manages chronic diseases. We are an early-stage startup founded by Stanford physicians.
We are seeking a Clinical Product Lead (MD) to own the clinical design and help drive development of UpDoc’s AI-enabled chronic disease products. This is a hands-on product role for a physician with strong clinical judgment and product instincts.
This is a remote role.
WHO YOU ARE
You’re an experienced physician who thinks like a product builder. You can take an ambiguous clinical problem, determine how the product should address it, make thoughtful tradeoffs, and work with a cross-functional team to ship it. You’re comfortable being the clinical decision-maker for the areas you own and excited to work hands-on with AI systems.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own the clinical design of the product areas you lead, including care pathways, interventions, escalation criteria, safety boundaries, and expected system behavior.
- Drive clinical product initiatives from problem definition through launch and iteration, translating clinical needs into product requirements, acceptance criteria, and product decisions.
- Work hands-on with UpDoc’s AI agent, reviewing conversations and clinical trajectories, identifying failure modes, and defining how the system should behave.
- Partner closely with product, engineering, design, and clinical colleagues to drive cross-functional execution of the initiatives you own.
- Evaluate product performance and help shape the clinical product roadmap, using feedback, data, and real-world clinical needs to guide improvements.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- MD or DO degree, completion of residency training, and board certification or eligibility.
- Meaningful direct patient-care experience and strong clinical judgment.
- Experience in healthcare technology, digital health, clinical software, or technology-enabled care.
- Strong product judgment and demonstrated ability to turn clinical problems into practical product decisions.
- Experience working closely with Product, Engineering, Design, Data, or other technical teams.
- Comfort working hands-on in a fast-moving, early-stage environment.
HIGHLY DESIRED
- Experience owning or building a healthcare product or significant product feature.
- Experience in an early-stage digital health, healthcare technology, or AI company.
- Experience with AI-enabled clinical products, generative AI, LLMs, or clinical decision support.
- Experience in chronic disease management, primary care, cardiometabolic health, or longitudinal care.
- Clinical informatics, EHR, or healthcare interoperability experience.
Compensation
The expected base salary range for this position is $250,000 - $350,000 annually, depending on experience and qualifications. This role is also eligible for equity and benefits.
