About the Role
We are hiring a Senior Product Counsel, R&D / AI to serve as the primary legal partner to Doximity’s AI team. You will sit with the engineers, data scientists, and product managers building our clinical AI products — ambient documentation, clinical search and answers, and AI-powered clinician workflows — and help them ship quickly and responsibly. This is a hands-on, high-judgment role for a lawyer who wants to be in the room where AI products are designed, not downstream of them.
As a Senior Product Counsel, R&D / AI, you will:
• Act as embedded counsel to our AI and R&D teams, advising on product design, model development, and launch decisions from concept through release — and owning the most significant legal questions our AI organization faces.
• Advise on health data throughout the AI lifecycle: HIPAA and HITECH, business associate arrangements, de-identification, permitted uses for model training and evaluation, and state health privacy and consent laws.
• Counsel on AI-specific risk, including training data provenance and licensing, third-party model and API terms, output accuracy and reliability, clinical decision support and FDA software boundaries, intellectual property in AI outputs, and transparency and disclosure obligations.
• Draft and negotiate the agreements R&D depends on — data licenses, model and infrastructure provider terms, research and clinical collaborations, BAAs and DPAs, and evaluation and pilot agreements.
• Build the legal infrastructure that lets AI development scale: intake and review processes, product launch checklists, playbooks, self-service guidance, and training for engineering and product teams.
• Partner closely with Privacy, Security, Regulatory, Clinical, Trust & Safety, and Marketing to align on governance for new AI capabilities.
• Track the fast-moving AI and health data regulatory landscape and translate it into concrete, actionable product guidance.
Location: This role is In-Person in San Francisco, CA.
