The Company
colliga is building deterministic governance for probabilistic AI systems (large language models to start). It checks what a probabilistic model produces against the rules an enterprise has set, determines admissibility, and keeps a versioned, replayable record of every decision. It works mid-stream, and only returns responses that are fully compliant, thus replacing traditional guardrails.
The problem
Businesses deploying AI are discovering that a model usually behaves as trained with current governance techniques, but not always. "Usually" is not good enough for high-stakes use-cases, and therefore not something a regulator, auditor or buyer's legal or security teams will sign off on. As a result, AI is failing to reach its full potential for critical tasks. A governed, logged, deterministic gate can turn "usually" into "always, provably, and with evidence" for many of these systems.
We hold a family of 14 filed patents, have a working prototype and a proof of concept, and are ready to build the first production product.
The role
The Chief Technology Officer is the technical owner of that thesis: what is built, what works, what the evidence supports, and what the company can honestly promise customers and investors. You will be the single technical voice who sets direction, arbitrates between competing designs, and leads the engineers who build it.
You report to the founder and CEO. You lead the engineering team and own the code and infrastructure, with authority over technical direction, hiring, architecture, security posture and engineering process. You work alongside the founder on intellectual property with outside counsel and technical reviewers, including investor due diligence.
What will you do
1. Set the technical direction and own the architecture, and settle technical questions between engineers and between designs.
2. Take the company's prototype to a production release of the governed gate, with the structured decision log as a first-class product feature.
3. Own the evidence standard: what counts as proof for a technical claim, how tests are kept honest, and how results, including negative ones, are reported to the board and to buyers.
4. Put in place the engineering controls a buyer's due diligence looks for (change approval, logging, access control, vulnerability handling, incident response) and lead the company toward a security attestation such as SOC 2.
5. Build and lead the team: hiring plans, interview and leveling practice, and a clear working agreement with the founder on what is decided where.
6. Represent the technology to investors, buyers, regulators and counsel, and be the person who says no when a claim is not supported.
What we are looking for
Must haves:
1. Ten or more years building production software systems, with at least four years leading engineers, and experience as a head of engineering, VP or CTO at a company that sold software to businesses.
2. Strong systems and backend engineering judgment: you can read an unfamiliar codebase and judge a design that someone else built.
3. Direct experience with security and compliance for software sold to businesses, such as taking a company through SOC 2 or an equivalent attestation.
4. Demonstrated experience with applied language models in production: how they fail, how they are evaluated, and how guardrails and output checks work.
5. Comfort with cloud infrastructure on a major provider and the operational discipline around it (deployment, secrets, logging, recovery).
6. The ability to explain technical trade-offs in plain words to non-technical internal and external stakeholders without overclaiming.
7. A habit of measuring: you distrust a result until you have seen how it was tested.
Advantageous differentiators:
1. Background in deterministic or verifiable systems: formal methods, rule engines, compilers, policy engines or high-assurance software.
2. Experience with audit trails, event sourcing, cryptographic receipts or signed logs.
3. Natural language processing background (parsing, information extraction, controlled languages).
4. Experience in regulated sectors: financial services, health, insurance or the public sector.
5. Experience hiring for and managing a small, senior engineering team.
A career-changing opportunity
This is an early, hands-on leadership role in a small company with a clear technical thesis, a filed patent family, and a founder who values what a technical partner brings to the table. You will help shape the product, the team, and the engineering culture from the start as well as own the code.

Tips for Your Remote Chief Medical Officer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote chief medical officer openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your clinical background and apply directly without sorting through non-remote listings.
Demonstrate async leadership in your materials
Remote employers want proof you can align clinical and executive stakeholders without real-time meetings. Your resume and cover letter should name specific outcomes you drove through written communication, structured documentation, or asynchronous decision-making processes.
Signal fluency with remote clinical operations tools
Name the platforms you've used for distributed clinical oversight: EHR systems with remote access workflows, telehealth infrastructure, clinical quality dashboards, and project management tools your remote team will recognize. Generic tool lists don't land, specific ones do.
Prepare for multi-stakeholder remote interviews
Remote chief medical officer hiring panels typically include the CEO, board members, and clinical leads in separate video rounds. Practice delivering your clinical strategy and quality improvement narrative in a structured, time-limited format that works without whiteboards or in-room presence.
Remote Chief Medical Officer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote chief medical officer job?
Remote chief medical officer roles go to candidates who can lead clinical strategy, compliance, and cross-functional teams without in-person oversight. Remote employers screen heavily for executive-level written communication, the ability to build consensus asynchronously, and a history of working across distributed or matrixed organizations. Demonstrated outcomes in population health, utilization management, or clinical quality programs give candidates a clear edge over those with general leadership experience alone.
Which companies hire remote chief medical officers?
Remote chief medical officer roles are posted by Abco Maintenance, Step Up Women's Network, and Planate Management and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. The employers hiring most consistently are remote-first digital health companies, telehealth platforms, health insurance technology firms, and large managed care organizations that run distributed clinical leadership teams.
Can you get a remote chief medical officer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote chief medical officer roles are senior positions, so entry without prior C-suite or VP-level clinical leadership experience is rare. The most accessible entry path is through remote VP of Medical Affairs or Medical Director roles at digital health startups, where you can demonstrate strategic impact, independent decision-making, and the written communication habits that remote chief medical officer work demands at the highest level.
Do you need a degree for remote chief medical officer jobs?
Usually, yes. Remote chief medical officer roles almost universally require an MD or DO, and most postings also expect board certification in a relevant specialty. Some health technology companies weight clinical informatics credentials or an MBA alongside the medical degree. What opens the door beyond credentials is a documented record of clinical program ownership, regulatory navigation, and measurable quality improvement at an organizational scale.
Which industries hire the most remote chief medical officers?
Remote chief medical officer roles concentrate in Consulting & Professional Services, Technology & Software, and Non-Profit & Social Services, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors hire chief medical officers remotely because their clinical oversight, product safety, and regulatory functions operate across distributed teams rather than a single facility or geography.
