Senior Medical Advisor (3 month contract)

Remote

400M+ downloads. 75M+ monthly users. A decade of building – and we’re still accelerating.

Flo is the world’s #1 health app on a mission to build a better future for female health. Backed by a $200M investment led by General Atlantic, we became the first product of our kind to reach a $1B valuation in 2024 – and we’re not slowing down.

With 6M paid subscribers and the highest-rated experience in the App Store’s health category, we’ve spent 10 years earning trust at scale. Now, we’re building the next generation of digital health – AI-powered, privacy-first, clinically backed – to help our users know their body better.

The job

Medical and Scientific credibility is the foundation. It’s the core of who and what Flo is. 

As a group, these teams engage thought leaders and KOLs (120+ and counting!), establish research partnerships (Stanford University, Johns Hopkins University, Northwestern University, and others), help Developers design our intuitive AI tools, check our Medical Accuracy, and drive medical credibility across the whole platform.

Flo is the first fully digital female health Unicorn, built on trust and medical credibility, and grounded in world-class Medical & Scientific expertise.

Over the years we’ve diversified our offering, branching out into holistic health and wellbeing and creating multiple category defining features around menstrual cycle tracking, pregnancy monitoring, medical and scientific education, and more recently, chat-bot-led symptom checking.

Flo is expanding its content and AI-driven initiatives, and we’re looking for a Medical Advisor to ensure medical accuracy and safety across the app. You’ll review and refine medical information, including chatbot responses, AI-generated content, and other user-facing materials, ensuring alignment with clinical guidelines and best practices.

This 3 month freelance contract is ideal for a medical professional with experience in women’s health or Health Tech. You’ll join a highly driven team of four doctors, working with Product, Data Science, and Engineering teams.

While the focus is on content review and AI initiatives, responsibilities extend to chatbots, symptom checkers, and wearables. The role offers a chance to shape high-quality, trustworthy health content in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.

Please note this role is ideally a full-time, freelance opportunity, but the team may be able to consider 3-4 days a week. 

Your Experience

Must have:

  • Medical degree
  • Minimum 3 years experience as a clinician.
  • Experience in women’s health—either as a GP with a proven interest in women’s health or as an OBGYN.
  • Advanced English (C2 - written and spoken)

Nice to have:

  • Specialist in OB-GYN
  • Former experience in working for a Health tech company
  • Former experience in the product development process for consumer apps
  • Previous experience working with AI
  • Former experience in analytics, or coding 
  • Experience inputting to a marketing department of a for-profit business in the Health sector

What you'll be doing

You'll be responsible to:

  • Ensuring the overall medical accuracy, safety, and compliance of Flo’s mobile app by performing thorough medical reviews of chatbot responses, educational content, and other user-facing materials.
  • Supporting the Medical team in developing optimisation strategies for Product, Content, and Engineering teams to enhance the use of AI.
  • Providing clinical expertise to support decisions requiring medical input across Flo’s digital health initiatives.
  • Assessing and suggesting amendments to AI usage, processes and tools based on medical guidelines, research, and Flo’s defined accuracy rules.
  • Supporting the development of new features by gathering medical research, contributing to feature creation, and providing expert input on risk assessments and regulatory compliance.
  • Working closely with Flo’s Expert Board and internal medical team to peer-review medical content and uphold high standards of accuracy and reliability.
  • Attending team meetings and stand-ups with both the medical team and cross-functional teams you’ll be supporting.
  • Using tools such as Figma, Jira, Miro, and Google Workspace to manage and deliver your work effectively.

You'll be targeted to:

  • Work with the team to bring medical research on topics and new ideas to help produce medically accurate and appealing user-facing features and content. 
  • Be responsible for auditing the medical accuracy of the product and working on ideas to help maintain and improve high standards.
  • Aim for 100% medical accuracy in all content and features, collaborating closely with our Medical Experts board and in-house medical team.
  • Work to improve the medical review workflow in the teams you support.
  • Steward clinical safety by conducting risk assessments, as well as investigating and solving safety incidents

 

Please note: this position is a freelance daily rate contract and is not subject to employee benefits.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
