Medical Director - Multi-State License

About the role

Bold is the leading healthy aging platform, offering personalized, evidence-based exercise programs for Medicare members that help prevent falls, reduce musculoskeletal pain, and increase physical activity levels. Innovative Medicare plans rely on Bold to deliver engaging, clinically sound exercise programs that members love to use and that achieve significant health outcomes. Bold is backed by leading investors, including Rethink Impact, Andreessen Horowitz, and Khosla Ventures.

Bold is seeking a Medical Director with a strong background in preventive and lifestyle medicine to join our clinical team. The role is designed for a practicing physician who wishes to remain deeply involved in direct patient care while shaping the clinical direction and standards. As Bold grows, the balance of this role is expected to evolve with patient-facing time decreasing and leadership and governance responsibilities expanding. We're looking for someone who is excited about both dimensions and ready to grow into a broader leadership role. This is a full time remote position.
