About the Role:
Aura seeks to transform the way we approach and promote digital safety for youth. In a time where children and adolescents face a relentless barrage of online threats (eg., ubiquity of social media, cyberbullying, etc.), Aura is building next generation products and tools that make it easier for kids and their caregivers to monitor and quantify these threats. In addition, we will develop and deploy solutions to support kids and their parents in monitoring the potential negative mental health impact of the digital world.
To achieve these goals, Aura has already invested in hiring a new Chief Medical Officer who, along with a carefully selected team, will shape the strategy and vision for this new initiative.

Finally, you’ll spend time managing and cultivating new and existing relationships with external clinical and scientific experts. Opportunities will exist for continued scientific activity in the form of conference presentations/abstracts and peer-reviewed publications.
