Your Mission

As our Chief Medical Officer , you’ll build the medical foundation of Dots — defining the standards, ethics, and safety systems that make our GLP-1 care both trusted and scalable.

You’ll help hundreds of thousands safely access GLP-1 medications and supportive products, turning cutting-edge science into accessible, evidence-based care that improves real lives.

This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing consumer brand that’s already resonating deeply with users — and to build the clinical and ethical backbone that lets us scale with confidence.

(This is a strategic role — not direct patient care.)

What you'll own

  • Clinical voice of the brand — Serve as the medical conscience and trusted voice behind everything we say and do. Represent Dots with clarity, empathy, and rigor. The CEO will lead most press / media appearances, but you’ll provide the scientific grounding and credibility.
  • Guidance for new initiatives — Bring rigorous medical judgment to new product and program development. Ensure every launch advances long-term, sustainable health outcomes for our users.
  • In app medical and lifestyle info — Review and guide all in-app medical and health related goals, targets, graphs to ensure accuracy for users.
  • Clinical strategy and protocols — Collaborate closely with our provider network partners to define, review, and continually refine prescribing frameworks, titration protocols, and refill practices for GLP-1 medications.
  • Outcomes and evidence — Shape how we measure clinical success — from adherence to refill safety — and help guide early outcomes research that demonstrates the impact of our care.
  • What We’re Looking For

  • MD or DO , board-certified in endocrinology, obesity medicine, internal medicine, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of clinical experience in obesity, metabolic health, or related specialties.
  • Clear, demonstrated expertise and enthusiasm for GLP-1 medications and their clinical applications.
  • Exceptional communicator — able to translate complex science into simple, trustworthy, human language for both patients and cross-functional teams.
  • Integrity and pragmatism — you balance patient safety, compliance, and business goals with calm, evidence-based judgment.
  • Bonus Points

  • Prior experience as a fractional or advisory CMO .
  • Previous startup or early-stage company experience.
  • Experience talking to camera or strong social media presence.
  • About us

    Dots is a seed-stage startup building MeAgain, the #1 GLP-1 Companion App in the US. Our core product is an AI-powered GLP-1 coach that helps users safely navigate medication use, mitigate side effects, and build long-term lifestyle habits for sustainable results.

    In under six months, our three-person team bootstrapped to profitability, achieving a $4M annual run-rate, 200K+ downloads, and 50K+ paying users. We recently closed a seed round from top-tier VCs and seasoned founders who’ve built and exited multiple companies. Demand is outpacing what we can keep up with, and we’re ready to scale.

    We sit at the intersection of two of the biggest consumer transformations of the decade :

  • GLP-1s : The fastest-growing drug class in history, already used weekly by 20–30M Americans. By 2035, that number could exceed 100M. GLP-1s are reshaping how people lose weight, manage health, and live.
  • Consumer AI : We believe AI will redefine the consumer health experience. Our AI companion is already deeply integrated and expanding rapidly - from assisting users today to taking real-world actions tomorrow.
  • Join us early, and help shape what the next generation of consumer health looks like.

    Over the coming years, your family and friends will tell you how much they love MeAgain - and that it’s incredible you were part of building it.

    Why join now

    A once-in-a-decade inflection point.

  • The convergence of GLP-1s and AI is the most exciting opportunity in consumer health in a generation - and we’re already one of the fastest-growing players in the space.
  • Impact from Day One.

  • We move fast and stay lean. Your work will immediately shape shipping velocity, product direction, and user outcomes.
  • Purpose that’s personal.

  • Every day, you’ll build something that helps people regain control of their health and their lives. Our users don’t just like MeAgain - they say it changed their entire weight loss journey.
