About the role

  • We're looking for an experienced regulatory medical writer to act as our in-house pharma subject matter expert on a consulting basis.

Responsibilities

  • Review AI-generated regulatory documents produced via Collate for accuracy, format, and regulatory voice/tone
  • Advise on regulatory document lifecycle workflows - how documents actually move through pharma companies in practice, including handoffs, review cycles, and approval chains
  • Serve as a pharma insider resource - helping us understand org structures, roles, timelines, and internal processes at target pharma companies, and weighing in on industry relationships and positioning (e.g., which pharma leaders and functions we should be building relationships with)
  • You'll partner directly with engineers, not just submit written feedback - expect short, iterative cycles where your input shapes a prompt change or feature the same week
  • You'll also be looped in as a pharma SME beyond document review - for example, helping us think through which pharma leaders or functions to prioritize for relationship-building and industry engagement
  • Strong grasp of global regulatory document standards, formatting conventions, and submission-readiness expectations (FDA and/or EMA)
  • Familiarity with how regulatory documents move through review, approval, and sign-off inside a pharma organization

Requirements

  • Comfort giving direct, specific feedback in a fast-moving, iterative product environment - this is a "work alongside engineers" role, not a "hand off a redline" role
  • Ownership: Shape both our product experience and our engineering culture from the start.

Compensation

  • The base salary range for this role is competitive, depending on experience and level (Tier 1, San Francisco)

Benefits

  • existing network or relationships across regulatory affairs, medical writing, or pharma leadership circles
  • Join a company early enough to have meaningful equity and career-defining impact.
  • Provide usability feedback on Collate from the perspective of a working RA professional / medical writer - what feels off, what's missing, what would make you trust and adopt a tool like this
