Full Job Description

Principal Investigator (Family Practice or Internal Medicine MD/DO)

Kelly Science and Clinical is currently hiring a Principal Investigator to work part-time, onsite in Phoenix AZ for one of our clients who is dedicated to advancing medical innovation and healing technology through groundbreaking research.

Location: On-site in Phoenix (some remote chart review/sponsor calls as studies permit)
Hours: 5 - 15 hours/week depending on the study needs
- The exact hours will vary based on the needs of the clinical trial study, offering both adaptability and the opportunity to work on a dynamic and engaging project
Pay: Depends on industry experience. Range of $120 - $150.00 / 1099 hourly
Duration: Long term, no end date with potential to grow with the team as well as add additional hours if warranted

About the Role:
We’re seeking Family Medicine or Internal Medicine Physicians to serve as Principal Investigators (PIs) at our Phoenix, AZ research site. This position is ideal for physicians seeking a slower pace of work and very flexible, part-time hours (approximately 5–15 hours/week depending on study needs). Comprehensive PI onboarding and ongoing support are provided. You’ll provide medical oversight for clinical trials, ensure participant safety, and help generate high-quality data—without the heavy demands of a traditional clinic schedule. We’re looking for amazing candidates with clinical trial experience, as well as a Schedule I or II license (preferred).

Key Responsibilities:

Serve as the study physician for assigned trials; ensure participant safety and ethical conduct.
Review and confirm participant eligibility; oversee screening outcomes, AEs/SAEs, and retention trends.
Perform/oversee study-specific medical assessments (histories/physicals, concomitant meds, endpoint review).
Provide medical oversight to site staff (Sub-Investigators, CRCs, RNs, lab staff); be available for consults and safety questions.
Collaborate with IRBs, sponsors, and CROs; join SIVs, monitoring visits, and close-out activities as needed.
Ensure compliance with protocols, site SOPs, ICH-GCP, FDA/21 CFR, and Arizona or Texas state requirements (as applicable).
Review clinical data (labs, ECGs, vitals) and support timely safety reporting and documentation.
Contribute to high-quality source documentation, query resolution, and continuous improvement of site processes.

Minimum Qualifications:

MD or DO (Family or Internal Medicine).
Active, unrestricted Arizona Medical Board license, as applicable. Experience in areas such as Cardiometabolic diseases, Cardiology, NASH/MASH or COPD is required.
Experience in clinical research and comfort reviewing structured clinical data.
Strong documentation, communication, and confidentiality practices (HIPAA/PHI).
Prior experience as a PI or Sub-Investigator (training provided for the right candidate).
Familiarity with ICH-GCP and FDA regulations (21 CFR Parts 50, 54, 56, 312, 812).
Board certification in Family or Internal Medicine.

Preferred Qualifications:

DEA registration – Schedule I or II license, or are willing to obtain this license.
