Clinical Development Lead, AI/LLM
Hybrid (New York)$259k - $297kFull-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Lead the clinical accuracy and safety of all generative AI surfaces built by Neko Health (member-facing LLM chat, Gen AI UX, Doctor Scribe, and Pre-brief). Own the clinical safety, evaluation framework, and quality bar for AI outputs in a healthcare context, partnering with AI, product, and engineering leaders to ensure safe, accurate, and compliant AI-assisted care.
Responsibilities
- Set clinical requirements and the quality bar for all generative AI surfaces, acting as clinical DRI from scoping through rollout.
- Build and run the clinical evaluation framework for generative outputs, and define the acceptance threshold behind the >90% eval score.
- Own the clinical safety case for member-facing chat: hallucination, unsafe or incorrect advice, and missed escalation.
- Validate Doctor Scribe output against the auto-generated debrief and referral-accuracy targets.
- Partner with the LLM and Gen AI PM and Engineering lead on the pillar roadmap, validating every release against clinical safety, accuracy and compliance.
- Work alongside the Member Experience and Medical Tools clinical leads, plus Quality & Compliance, Learning & Education, Operations and market/clinic leadership, across the product lifecycle.
- Carry a small, protected clinical commitment (roughly 0.05–0.1 FTE) to stay grounded in clinic reality.
Qualifications
- A practising or recently practising physician with the credibility to set the clinical bar and act as DRI, or an equivalent clinical-scientific background with deep clinical fluency.
- Direct experience with LLMs or generative AI in a healthcare or clinical-content setting: building, evaluating, or clinically validating generative outputs.
- Strong grasp of the failure modes of generative models in a clinical context (hallucination, unsafe advice, missed escalation) and how to evaluate against them.
- Working understanding of medical-device and clinical-software quality and safety obligations (e.g. EU MDR, GCP) as they apply to AI.
- Ability to produce and validate specialist clinical content, not only to coordinate others who do.
- Comfort operating across Swedish, UK and US clinical contexts, and the judgement to know when to override the tool with clinical reasoning.
