Job Description

Responsibilities

  • AI & clinical auditing: Utilize agentic AI for automated governance, auditing activities, and programmatic asset mapping for both internal and external use cases. Leverage AI for automated clinical auditing and "drift" detection to ensure content aligns with evolving medical guidelines, automatically flagging outdated items for review.
  • Market alignment: Engage with clients and prospects to understand their jobs to be done, translating them into editorial solutions to support “self-serve” use cases and EMR integrations.
  • Product collaboration: Partner with UX and Product Managers to ensure content is "born digital"—designed to work seamlessly within modern application layouts, mobile interfaces, and clinical workflows.

  • AI Enablement & Product Integration: Lead training and enablement for team members and freelancers to incorporate AI agents and automations into every aspect of content strategy and development. Partner with Product and Tech on UAT and training for AI-driven products.
  • Intake & prioritization: Manage the "front door" for new content and asset requests, using data to prioritize high-impact consumer health and patient education projects over other projects.
  • Process improvement: Continuously partner on refining the content and asset production workflows to reduce "time-to-market" and "time-to-delivery" through AI-assisted automation of clinical and content tasks.

Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Communications, Journalism, Public Health, Health Education, or a related field (Master’s level preferred).
  • Experience: 5+ years in content strategy or patient education, specifically focused on B2C (Business-to-Consumer) health or wellness products, or with a proven track record in the healthcare or HealthIT sectors.
  • Digital Health Ecosystems: Familiar with patient education content strategy principles, with the ability to align assets effectively for consumers, providers, payers, and health IT users.
  • AI Proficiency: Understands AI methodologies, including prompt engineering, RAG-optimized response systems, and working with agentic AI autonomous operational partners.
  • CMS, Workflow, and CRM Tools: Proficiency in using a variety of content management, project management, and client management tools.
  • Analytics: Ability to interpret client, clinical, and consumer behavior data using a variety of analytic tools and outputs.
  • Core Competencies: User-centricity & AI Orchestration: A passion for improving user journeys with content, combined with the ability to help redesign traditional workflows around AI-enabled governance to drive measurable gains in efficiency, cost savings, and scale.
  • Agility & Strategic Thinking: The ability to pivot strategy based on digital performance data and changing market demands.
