What are the responsibilities and job description for the Clinical Research Scientist position at Ermi LLC.?
Clinical Research Scientist (PhD) — R&D Ambassador
Build the Evidence. Represent the Science. Change Recovery.
At Ermi, we are building a clinically validated platform that is redefining how patients recover range of motion after injury and surgery.
Our technology is already supported by published clinical evidence and real-world outcomes. Now we are expanding the research function that will define the future of orthopedic rehabilitation.
We are hiring a Clinical Research Scientist to lead that effort—and become the public face of Ermi’s science.
This Role Is Different
This is a founding-level R&D role where you will:
- Publish and present research that directly influences clinical adoption.
- Represent Ermi at leading orthopedic and sports medicine conferences globally.
- Work at the intersection of clinical science, product innovation, and patient outcomes.
- Help build a category-defining body of evidence.
What You’ll Do
1. Lead Clinical Evidence Development
- Design and publish Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs)
- Expand Ermi’s research across:
- Therapeutic stretching mechanisms
- Biomechanics and robotic joint testing
- Translate findings into clinically actionable outcomes.
2. Represent Ermi on the Global Stage
- Present research at major conferences (AAOS, AOSSM, ORS, ISAKOS, ESSKA)
- Build relationships with surgeons, researchers, and institutions.
- Establish Ermi as a leader in rehabilitation science.
3. Drive Innovation with Engineering
- Partner directly with product and engineering teams
- Turn clinical insights into new device concepts and protocols.
- Help define the future of Ermi’s R&D pipeline.
Who You Are
- PhD / DSc in biomechanics, kinesiology, biomedical engineering, or related field
- Strong publication record (~10–15 peer-reviewed articles)
- Confident presenter comfortable in high-visibility environments
- Willing to travel for conferences and research collaboration
- Motivated by impact beyond academia
