This role is ideal for entrepreneurial clinicians who thrive in fast-paced environments and want to help design scalable, evidence-based care for women across life stages.
As part of our MVP launch team, you will deliver high-quality virtual care across a broad spectrum of needs — from contraception and menopause management to metabolic and weight-related care — while contributing to the development of our clinical protocols and digital care model.
This is a 1099, remote, part-time contract position (10-20 hours/week) with flexible hours.

Over time, this role may expand to include supervisory responsibilities for midlevel practitioners and participation in future clinical leadership initiatives.
What You’ll Do

- Collaborate with Maven’s Medical Directors, NPs, RNs, and health coaches to ensure safety, continuity, and consistency of care.
- Contribute to clinical protocol development, offering insight on workflow optimization, safety criteria, and escalation frameworks for a scalable digital model.
- Order and interpret labs and manage dose adjustments per protocol or clinical judgment.
- Provide member education and counseling focused on sustainable behavior change, medication safety, and long-term health outcomes.
- Document accurately and efficiently in Maven’s EMR (MPractice), maintaining adherence to quality and compliance standards.
- Participate in case reviews, QA audits, and clinician learning sessions — helping to refine Maven’s evolving model of virtual women’s and metabolic health care.
Who You Are
- Board-certified Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or OB-GYN physician with an active, unrestricted U.S. medical license.
- Broadly licensed or eligible to obtain licensure in multiple states
- Preference for clinicians already licensed in 5+ states
- 5+ years of clinical experience spanning primary care, women’s health, metabolic or obesity medicine, or telehealth.
- Strong clinical judgment and confidence managing medications across hormonal and metabolic indications.
- Comfortable working in an early-stage, fast-evolving care model where workflows, protocols, and technologies are continuously refined.
- Effective communicator who can collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and translate clinical reasoning into product feedback.
- Passionate about delivering evidence-based, equitable care and advancing Maven’s mission to improve health outcomes for women and families.
Opportunity Highlights
- Influence & Impact: Play a key role in building Maven’s metabolic health program — contributing to care model design, safety protocols, and digital innovation.
- Flexibility: Provide virtual care on your schedule from anywhere in the U.S.
- National Reach: Opportunity to practice across states and expand coverage as Maven scales nationwide.
- Growth Potential: Future eligibility for additional income through supervisory responsibilities for midlevel clinicians.
- Collaborative Environment: Work alongside a mission-driven team of clinical leaders, product innovators, and care advocates committed to making healthcare work for all of us.

About Metabolic Psychiatry Labs
Metabolic Psychiatry Labs (MPL) is pioneering a new approach to mental health by targeting its metabolic roots. We provide specialized psychiatric care to patients with Serious Mental Illness, integrating evidence-based psychiatric treatment with metabolic medicine — including ketogenic dietary therapies, metabolic biomarker analysis, and digital interventions — for conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, treatment-resistant psychosis, and obesity.
Our treatment model is grounded in emerging evidence connecting metabolic dysfunction to psychiatric disease and was developed out of Stanford. We apply structured interventions — nutritional, pharmacologic, and behavioral — within a longitudinal care framework, and we are building a patient- and provider-facing application to bring these therapies directly to those who need them most.
Position Overview
This is a rare opportunity to practice at the frontier of psychiatry. You will work directly alongside our medical director to deliver high-acuity, metabolically-informed psychiatric care to a growing panel of patients. You will help shape how this emerging care model is applied in practice, contributing to clinical protocols, case discussions, and the ongoing refinement of our approach.
If you are looking to do your most meaningful clinical work and grow alongside a mission-driven team building something genuinely new, this role is for you.
Key Responsibilities
● Direct Patient Care
○ Provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and ongoing medication management via telehealth for patients with serious mental illness, including depression, bipolar disorder, and treatment-resistant psychosis
○ Integrate metabolic data — including laboratory biomarkers, dietary adherence metrics, and clinical trends — into individualized psychiatric treatment plans
○ Partner closely with our medical director, Registered Dietitians and nutrition coaches to coordinate metabolic interventions, including ketogenic dietary therapies, alongside psychiatric care
○ Maintain a longitudinal therapeutic relationship with patients, tracking progress across psychiatric and metabolic domains over time
○ Provide culturally sensitive, compassionate care with a high standard of clinical documentation
● Clinical Collaboration
○ Collaborate actively with the medical director on clinical decision-making, protocol refinement, and patient-level treatment planning
○ Maintain timely, high-quality clinical documentation in accordance with regulatory and organizational standards
○ Participate in structured weekly clinical case conferences with physician leadership and the broader interdisciplinary team, presenting and discussing complex cases
○ Participate in clinical operations improvements and contribute to building scalable care delivery infrastructure as the practice grows
○ Engage with emerging research in metabolic psychiatry and participate in a culture of ongoing clinical learning
What We're Looking For
● Credentials & Experience
○ PMHNP (Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner) board certification required, obesity medicine is a plus
○ California licensure required, active licensure in additional states strongly preferred, particularly FL, NY, TX, and VA
○ Solid clinical experience in psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis, and pharmacologic management
○ Prior experience delivering care via telehealth
● Location
○ Strong preference for California resident
● Clinical Approach
○ Interest in the intersection of metabolic medicine and psychiatry — prior experience with or knowledge of ketogenic diets, metabolic health, or nutritional psychiatry is a meaningful plus, though not required
○ Rigorous, hypothesis-driven clinical reasoning: you approach complex patients with intellectual curiosity, not diagnostic shortcuts
○ Genuine openness to non-traditional frameworks and emerging evidence; comfort sitting with uncertainty in a developing field
○ Comfort interpreting and acting on laboratory and biomarker data in a clinical context
● Working Style
○ Adaptable problem solver who proactively finds solutions to improve clinical efficiency
○ Self-directed and organized: able to manage a longitudinal patient panel and asynchronous communication in a fully remote setting
○ Comfortable operating in an early-stage, evolving organization with ambiguity where processes are still being built
○ You care about doing this work well and contributing to something larger than a typical clinical job
Compensation
● Competitive compensation aligned with market rates for experienced PMHNPs, commensurate with experience, licensure, and location
● Opportunity for company equity
