Build Technology That
Saves Lives
DESHA.AI is a pre-revenue, mission-driven health technology company taking on a $500B global problem, medication non-adherence. We're putting together the founding team that will change how the world manages health.
50% of Patients Don't
Take Medication Correctly.
This isn't a behaviour problem. It's a technology gap. No intelligent system today follows a patient's full medication journey, speaks their language, escalates when they go quiet, and reports back to their clinician.
DESHA.AI built MedNote to close that gap. Now we're building the team to take it global.
Open Positions
These are foundational roles that will shape the product, the regulatory pathway, and the clinical credibility of DESHA.AI.

Named Clinical Advisory Board
We are forming a 3 to 5 person Clinical Advisory Board comprising senior GPs, pharmacists, and clinical informaticians. Advisory board members provide strategic guidance on product direction, validate clinical claims, and serve as named advisors for regulatory submissions and investor materials.
- › Senior GP or GP Partner with interest in digital health and patient adherence
- › Clinical pharmacist with NHS prescribing and polypharmacy experience
- › Academic researcher in medication adherence, mHealth, or behavioural health
- › NHS Digital or NHSX programme lead with interoperability experience
Commercial Health Lead
As DESHA.AI moves from pilot to commercial launch, you will own the go-to-market strategy across our 6-sector rewards ecosystem, across pharmacies, health insurers, employers, pharma companies, GP clinics, and life insurance providers. You understand NHS procurement and private healthcare commercial models.
