Senior Healthcare Scientist (Part-time, Equity only)

Healthcare ScientistEquity-Based Founding Role | HiWoxAbout HiWox
HiWox is building a personalised healthcare and wellness intelligence ecosystem that collects, structures and analyses data across 9 wellness dimensions to generate evidence-backed, explainable and personalised recommendations.
We are building a Healthcare Operating System that combines healthcare science, data, technology, devices and consultant expertise through a structured, rule-based intelligence engine.
Role Overview
We are looking for a Healthcare Scientist who can translate healthcare science and evidence into measurable frameworks, assessment systems, protocols and decision rules that can be integrated into the HiWox intelligence engine.
This is a founding-stage, equity-based opportunity for someone interested in building a new healthcare intelligence ecosystem rather than working within a conventional healthcare role.

Structure assessments, scoring systems and health indicators.
Identify relationships between different health and lifestyle parameters.
Evidence & Research
Conduct literature reviews and evidence-based research.
Evaluate scientific validity of health parameters, interventions and recommendations.
Identify relevant clinical guidelines, research findings and validated assessment tools.
Maintain scientific references and evidence documentation.
Healthcare Data & Intelligence
Define what healthcare data should be collected, how it should be structured and how it should be interpreted.
Convert scientific knowledge into deterministic, rule-based decision frameworks.
Develop logic for risk indicators, wellness scores, recommendations and personalised interventions.
Work with data scientists to ensure healthcare logic is scientifically sound and explainable.
Assessment & Protocol Development
Develop healthcare assessments, screening protocols and measurement frameworks.
Define appropriate parameters, frequency and methods of assessment.
Establish protocols for interpreting device, wearable, questionnaire and clinical-test data.
Support standardisation of healthcare data collection.
Personalised Recommendations
Develop evidence-backed recommendation frameworks based on user conditions, behaviours, measurements and goals.
Define appropriate interventions, lifestyle modifications, preventive practices and escalation criteria.
Ensure recommendations are practical, measurable and explainable.
Healthcare Technology Collaboration
Work with Product Owners, Data Scientists, Developers and Healthcare Technology Experts.
Translate healthcare requirements into product specifications and decision logic.
Support integration of wearables, devices, sensors and clinical data.
Validate healthcare-related product features and workflows.
Scientific Validation
Review and validate HiWox algorithms, assessments and recommendation frameworks.
Identify gaps, inconsistencies and potential risks in healthcare logic.
Establish validation methodologies for new healthcare frameworks.
Maintain scientific quality and evidence standards across the platform.
Research & Innovation
Identify emerging healthcare technologies, diagnostics, digital health solutions and research opportunities.
Support collaborations with hospitals, doctors, researchers, universities and healthcare institutions.
Contribute to research publications, pilots, studies and potential IP development.
Ideal Candidate
Healthcare Science, Medicine, Biomedical Science, Public Health, Life Sciences, Clinical Research or related background.
Strong understanding of healthcare research and evidence-based practice.
Experience in healthcare research, clinical research, health technology, preventive healthcare, diagnostics or healthcare innovation.
Ability to convert complex healthcare knowledge into structured frameworks and measurable systems.
Strong analytical, research and documentation skills.
Comfortable working with technology, data and multidisciplinary teams.
Experience with healthcare assessments, clinical parameters, guidelines or digital health is an advantage.
Engagement
Equity-based founding position.
Part-time contribution: approximately 20–25 hours/week.
Remote/hybrid engagement.
No fixed salary at the current stage.
Fixed compensation will be introduced after funding and revenue stabilisation.
Equity will be determined based on expertise, contribution, responsibility, commitment and long-term ownership.
Core founding members will follow a 5-year vesting structure.
Key Outcome
Build the scientific and healthcare foundation of HiWox — converting healthcare evidence, research and clinical knowledge into structured data frameworks, assessments, decision rules and explainable personalised recommendations that can operate within the HiWox intelligence engine.
