Medical Director

Medical Director

Aleron MD · Remote / Telehealth

This role is being recruited by LASO Health for Aleron MD. Final employment or contracting structure will be established through Aleron's affiliated professional entity before the start date.

About Aleron MD

Aleron MD is a membership prevention practice. We read a person's risk across five domains (cardiovascular, metabolic, renal, cancer, and neurocognitive) and act on it years before disease appears. A clinical engine does the heavy synthesis. Physicians make the decisions. We're early, and we're building the clinical core now.

About the role

We're hiring our first Medical Director. You'll carry a small panel, practice prevention at full range, and help define how Aleron delivers care, working closely with our Chief Medical Officer.

This role is different from most clinical jobs in one specific way: you practice on top of the engine, not under it. Underneath you leverage advanced risk models for each domain that show where a patient is actually headed, not just whether a lab is out of range. The engine reads across all of them at once, so you work from one picture of a person's future instead of five specialties that never talk to each other. And it lays out options across the full range of evidence, from established standard of care to the genuinely emerging, with the strength of evidence behind each one made explicit, so you decide how far to push. Your judgment sits over all of it. Where the engine doesn't match your read, you override it, and your reasoning tunes the system.

You do this for a small panel of people who actually do the work. Most are high-agency members, many of them executives, who research their own health and follow through, so what you recommend actually happens. And because Aleron doesn't bill fee-for-service, you aren't pinned to what a payer will reimburse. You practice at the frontier of prevention with the evidence in front of you, and decide how far forward to lean.

You won't do this in a silo. You'll work directly with the engineers, designers, and commercial leaders building Aleron MD, and what you learn in practice changes the product itself. Your clinical judgment is something the system is built around, not a ticket in a queue.

What you'll do

Clinical practice

Carry a small starting panel of 200-400 prevention patients. The size is deliberate since you’ll be part practitioner and part innovator. Practice prevention at full range, acting early on risk signals.

Lower the risks that shorten lives and push the capacities that lengthen them. The job is to act, not just to name the problem.

Engine and clinical quality

Pressure-test how the risk engine reasons, identify where it's weak, and close the gap between what it recommends and what a cutting-edge prevention focused clinician would actually do. An engaged, data-rich panel is exactly the population that exposes where the reasoning holds and where it doesn't.

Set and uphold the clinical standard every Aleron patient's care is measured against, alongside the Chief Medical Officer.

Building the practice

Help shape the offering while it's still forming: onboarding, the patient journey, the lab-completion problem, and the substance and tone of clinical recommendations.

Qualifications

• MD or DO, board-certified in internal medicine, preventive medicine, or a related specialty.
• Genuine cardiometabolic and risk-reduction depth, with real comfort acting on prevention markers before disease appears.
• Comfortable practicing in a telehealth and asynchronous care model.
• Intellectually honest: you’d prefer to state your certainty level on a topic instead of presenting false confidence. Opportunities to learn are a genuine joy.
• Secure enough to make a strong system stronger without needing to have built it yourself, and energized by work that's still taking shape.

Preferred

• These aren't required, but any of them would make you exceptional for this role:
• A quantitative or technical background, in data science, biostatistics, epidemiology, or engineering, whether formal or self-taught. The heart of this role is pressure-testing a clinical risk engine, and a physician who can argue with a model on its own terms is rare and enormously valuable to us.
• A real interest in AI, whether you build things on your own or already lean on it heavily in how you practice. You'll be working on top of one of these systems every day, so the more fluent you are with what it can and can't do, the better.
• Genomics or precision-medicine training, given how central inherited and genomic risk are to how we practice.
• Published or applied research in prevention, cardiometabolic risk, or longevity.
• Experience building a clinical program or practice from the ground up, especially at an early-stage health technology company.
• Longevity, functional, or concierge preventive medicine experience.

Compensation

We're hiring for the top of the field, and we pay for it. Compensation is competitive with full benefits and meaningful equity, because the people who build Aleron should own part of it. We prefer full-time candidates, but we're open to part-time at 50% bandwidth or more for the right person, with a path to full-time as the practice grows.
