How I work with teams.
I take on consulting and fractional engagements with organisations building or deploying clinical AI. The common thread is that I work inside the team, contributing to what gets built, not advising on it from a distance.
Areas of work
Most engagements combine several of these. I work out what will make the biggest difference for you, rather than fitting you into a fixed package.
Building clinical tools and workflows
Designing and building the clinical logic an AI system runs: conversational workflows, decision points, escalation rules, variable capture, prompts, and the evaluation criteria that go with them. Built and iterated in the platform.
Clinical safety (DCB0129 and DCB0160)
Clinical Safety Officer work for manufacturers and deploying organisations. Hazard identification and logs, controls, safety cases, and the evidence to support them. Designed so safety shapes the build rather than blocking it at the end.
Clinical product thinking
Translating clinical need into something engineering can build, judging when a feature is safe enough to ship, and finding ways to safeguard the end user without holding up the release. Useful when the team is moving faster than its clinical input can keep up.
Validation and evaluation
Structured methods to test whether a clinical AI system does what it should and fails safely when it does not. Evaluation criteria, audit methodology, and pre- and post-deployment review.
Clinical pathway design and configuration
Translating national clinical guidance into something an EHR or product team can configure: workflow, coded data elements, order sets, and decision support. Vendor-agnostic and built to be implemented, not filed.
Advisory
Sounding-board and strategy work for founders, clinical leads, and CCIOs navigating clinical AI: where the real risks are, what good looks like, and how to build a credible clinical and safety position.
Shapes an engagement can take
Fractional
Ongoing, part-time involvement as the embedded clinical voice in your team. Right when you need clinical depth in the room regularly but not a full-time hire.
Project-based
A defined piece of work with a clear outcome: a hazard log and safety case, a set of clinical workflows, a validation framework, a pathway build.
Advisory
Lighter-touch input: regular sessions to pressure-test decisions, review what you are building, and keep the clinical and safety thinking honest as you move.
These are ways of structuring my time, not fixed packages. Rates depend on the shape and length of the engagement. Tell me what you are working on and I will be straight about whether I am the right fit and what it would cost.
Not sure what you need?
Tell me what you are building and where it is getting stuck. I will recommend the most useful way to work together, even if that means a smaller piece of work than you expected, or none at all.
