Regulatory, Data Protection & Ethics Lead
We’re Building Something Category-Defining.
Foundation Partners have partnered with this stealth-mode health AI company on this search.
We’re a stealth-mode health AI company, backed by a Tier 1 venture capital firm, on a mission to transform paediatric diagnosis through next-generation multimodal AI. Our ambition isn’t incremental improvement, it’s to fundamentally shift how paediatric radiology is delivered, validated and scaled in real-world clinical environments.
The role we’re hiring is a Regulatory, Data Protection and Ethics Lead to shape and lead our end-to-end regulatory, quality management and governance strategy from first principles.
You’ll ensure our platform is designed, developed and deployed in full alignment with UK and international regulatory frameworks, while embedding best-in-class standards in data protection, clinical safety, quality management systems, and information governance.
In the initial phase, you will:
- Work closely with the founding team to define the regulatory pathway for our first use cases, starting with fracture diagnostics, including classification, evidence strategy and regulator engagement
- Bring experience in CE marking and FDA regulatory pathways to enable international scale, designing frameworks for compliant deployment across multiple jurisdictions
- Lead the development and negotiation of robust data governance frameworks, including complex data sharing agreements with NHS organisations and other healthcare partners
