As the Director, Clinical Science, you will lead the clinical science function responsible for developing the evidence that supports WHOOP’s regulated and unregulated health features, with a particular focus on Software as a Medical Device (SaMD).

This role requires deep expertise in SaMD clinical development, including study design, endpoint development, clinical validation, regulatory strategy, and evidence generation.
