Location Requirement We believe the best ideas happen together. To support fast collaboration and a strong team culture, this role is expected to be in our Palo Alto office five days a week, unless otherwise specified. ABOUT THE ROLE Reporting to the CMO, the Sr. Director of Clinical Content will be the internal clinical voice for Hippocratic AI’s marketing organization. Every clinical claim, every safety narrative, every piece of evidence-based content will be shaped by you. In a company whose core differentiation is clinical safety, this role is foundational. You are a clinician who made the leap into industry and thrived. You understand peer review processes, clinical evidence standards, and regulatory-adjacent content requirements. But you also understand how to translate complex clinical data into accessible narratives that resonate with non-clinical buyers. You bridge the gap between the clinical and marketing teams. You will manage Jonathan Agnew (clinical content writer, contractor), partner with HAI’s clinical and safety teams, and collaborate with the Director of Thought Leadership & Content and segment PMMs to ensure clinical accuracy and credibility across every piece of marketing content. This team is built on an agentic-first operating model. We invest in AI infrastructure, tooling, and workflows that let each team member produce output that would traditionally require a much larger team. Our CMO runs his workflow through AI-augmented tools integrated with Slack, Jira, Google Drive, and Gmail. Our marketing ops lead is building agentic tooling that automates production work. For this role, clinical depth is the primary filter. But you will be expected to embrace AI tools for literature synthesis, evidence review, and clinical content production. We are not looking for someone who treats AI as a novelty. We are looking for someone who sees AI-augmented clinical review, automated evidence synthesis, and scalable content production as the future of clinical marketing. You will use AI tools to accelerate literature reviews, draft clinical narratives from evidence databases, and maintain consistency across hundreds of clinical claims. Our interview process includes a practical project that directly tests this. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own All Clinical Content: Evidence summaries, safety documentation, clinical white papers, and peer-reviewed publication support. Every clinical claim in marketing material goes through you. - Build the Clinical Credibility Narrative: Create the evidence-based narrative that differentiates HAI from competitors who lack rigorous clinical evidence. 99.90% accuracy and 0.00% severe error rate are the facts. You make them compelling. - Manage Clinical Content Writer: Manage Jonathan Agnew (contractor) and build the clinical content production workflow. - Partner with Clinical and Safety Teams: Translate clinical evidence into marketing assets. Ensure every claim is defensible and every data point is contextualized appropriately. - Support Segment PMMs: Provide clinically accurate, segment-specific content for Provider, Payor, Life Sciences, and Government marketing materials. - Collaborate on Thought Leadership: Work with the Director of Thought Leadership & Content on clinical thought leadership pieces: research summaries, clinical perspective blogs, and evidence-based conference presentations. - Own Clinical Conference Content: Develop clinical evidence presentations, poster sessions, and supporting materials for healthcare and cli
