About the role
🍊Our mission We're powering biology's century with radically faster, more reliable clinical trials. Every new treatment needs clinical trials to prove safety and efficacy, but today's infrastructure is stuck in the past- driving up cost, causing delays and ultimately meaning new treatments don’t get to patients. We're fundamentally changing that- not just being a "better CRO," but transforming how people think about developing new treatments, so patients can access breakthrough treatments faster. Our impact speaks for itself: Since March 2021, we've powered 100+ clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients. We recently raised a $55M Series B from Balderton Capital, alongside backing from Creandum, Firstminute, Seedcamp, and Visionaries. 🍊What's it like to work here? When you join us, you’ll experience: High-Impact, Mission-Driven Work: Lindus is disrupting an outdated industry, giving you the chance to directly improve patients’ lives and see tangible results from your work. Fast-Paced Growth & Ownership: We recognise hard work and outcomes over anything else. You’ll take on real responsibility, work across different areas, and actively shape the company’s success. Collaborative, No-Ego Culture: Work with smart, driven people in a supportive and informal environment. At Lindus we break down silos, fun is a core value, and creativity is encouraged. Ready to power biology's century? We'd love to hear from you.
About
the Role We’re building out our network of Clinical Subject Matter Experts and are looking for a board-certified respiratory physician (pulmonologist) to partner with us on a 1099 contract basis. You’ll act as a trusted clinical advisor across the lifecycle of our respiratory trials - from protocol design and feasibility through to study delivery, safety oversight, and sponsor engagement. This is an ad-hoc, as-needed engagement. You’ll be called in when our teams need a board-certified pulmonologist’s perspective: helping us design protocols that work in real-world respiratory practice, sense-checking inclusion/exclusion criteria, advising on patient safety, and lending scientific credibility to conversations with sponsors and investigators. You’ll partner closely with our Clinical Operations, Medical, and Business Development teams, while retaining the flexibility of a contractor model. This is a fully remote engagement open to respiratory physicians licensed and practising in the United States. About You We’d like to hear from you if… You’re a board-certified pulmonologist / respiratory physician with an active US medical licence and a track record of clinical practice in pulmonary and/or critical care medicine. You bring meaningful exposure to clinical research - whether as a principal investigator, sub-investigator, sponsor-side medical monitor, scientific advisor, or contributor to protocol development. You can translate clinical reality into research design - flagging recruitment challenges, refining endpoints, and pressure-testing study assumptions before they become problems. You’re comfortable advising across respiratory indications spanning asthma, COPD, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and interstitial lung disease, bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, sleep-disordered breathing, respiratory infections, or other pulmonary sub-specialties. You’re comfortable speaking to spirometry, lung function endpoints, and respiratory biomarkers - and can advise on what makes them robust (or fragile) in a trial setting. You bring strong communication skills and can hold your own in a room with sponsors, regulators, and cross-functional clinical teams. You’re responsive and reliable , and able to turn around expert input on tight timelines when trials demand it. You’re comfortable working independently as a 1099 contractor , managing your own schedule and engagements alongside your wider clinical commitments. You’re excited to share your expertise across multiple studies and help shape best practice in respiratory research. You embody Lindus Health values: Be Transparent, High Agency, and Benefit Patients. What You’ll Focus On Protocol & Study Design Input: Provide expert review of respiratory trial protocols, advising on inclusion/exclusion criteria, endpoints (FEV1, exacerbation rates, PROs), safety monitoring, and procedural feasibility from a practising clinician’s perspective. Feasibility & Site Strategy: Sense-check recruitment assumptions, identify practical barriers to enrolment, and advise on site and investigator selection within the respiratory community. Sponsor & Business Development Support: Lend clinical and scientific credibility to prospect conversations, helping the Commercial team articulate Lindus’s value to respiratory-focused sponsors. Participate in feasibility calls and scientific discussions where SME input strengthens our position. Medical & Safety Oversight: Offer ad-hoc clinical guidance on safety signals, adverse events, and patient safety considerations across active respiratory trials, working alongside our internal medical team. Investigator & KOL Engagement: Act as a peer voice to investigators and external KOLs where helpful, supporting Lindus’s reputation as a credible scientific partner in respiratory medicine. Best Practice Contribution: Share insights from clinical practice and the wider pulmonology community to help shape SOPs, training materials, and study management approaches for respiratory trials. What We Offer Competitive 1099 rate tied to the engagement, with flexibility to focus on the trials and topics where your expertise adds the most value. A flexible, ad-hoc engagement model designed to fit around your clinical practice — no minimum hours, no commitment to a fixed schedule. Direct exposure to a high-quality portfolio of clinical trials and innovative sponsors working in the respiratory and pulmonary space. The chance to shape how respiratory research is run, partnering with a team that’s genuinely changing healthcare for the better. A collaborative, mission-driven culture where your clinical expertise is genuinely valued and acted on. Our Hiring Process We believe hiring should be transparent, respectful of your time, and give you a real feel for what Lindus Health is like.
