Back to jobs
Doctors are overworked, burnt out, and are quitting in masses.
At Freed, we combine clinician love with the latest AI tech and intense execution to create products that make clinicians happier.
Our first product is an AI scribe that automates medical documentation.
Since May of 2023, we have:
Acquired 26,000 paying and loving clinicians
Generated 100,000 patient notes daily and over 3 million monthly
With the backing of Sequoia Capital and other world-class VC’s, we are rapidly expanding our product offering. Patient-facing assistants, patient insights, EHR integrations, and other products are being built and used by thousands of clinicians every day.
We are looking for entrepreneurs. Fast, ambitious, and smart individuals who want to take care of the people who care for our health. Expect intense, clinician-focused, and interesting co-workers who want to win.
With an office in San Francisco, we embrace a hybrid schedule that brings out the best in teamwork and innovation. Our teams come together in person three days a week to collaborate, connect, and have a little fun along the way.
We are hiring a Fractional GRC Manager (part-time, ~20 hrs/week) to build and own our compliance function.
Freed operates in a highly regulated environment (SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA) with PHI flowing across 150+ vendors. Today, compliance work is fragmented across senior leaders, creating inefficiencies, audit friction, and product delays.
This role will act as the single accountable owner for Governance, Risk, and Compliance, responsible for maintaining audit readiness, unblocking product and vendor workflows, and reducing the compliance burden on engineering and leadership.
This is a hands-on, embedded operator role - not advisory. You will work closely with Finance, Engineering, Infrastructure, Legal, and GTM teams.
