Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July–June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off.

The base salary range for this position at the following ranks will be:
Clinical Assistant Professor ($22,000–$24,250 per month), Clinical Associate Professor ($ 24,250–$29,250 per month), Clinical Professor ($ 29,250–$33,500 per month), commensurate with experience and qualifications, or as mandated by a U.S. Department of Labor prevailing wage determination.

These ranges are inclusive of base salary provided through the UW Physicians (UWP) practice plan, in addition to base salary provided by the University. Please note that only compensation provided by the University is included in University benefit determinations and calculations. Compensation provided by the UW Physicians (UWP) practice plan may provide eligibility for separate benefits offered by that organization.

Other compensation associated with this position may include a clinical coverage overload (CCO), temporary pay supplement (TPS), or semi-annual additional compensation (SAAC), including additional compensation of $500 per night shift for any work as a member of the night attending (nocturnist) team.

The successful candidate will provide care primarily in the outpatient setting with additional opportunities for inpatient care based on interests and division clinical needs. The candidate will focus on management of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), including diagnosis, complex medical decision making to guide treatments, and close collaboration with a multidisciplinary team. Patient care efforts will occur at the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC), Montlake and Northwest campuses, and Harborview Medical Center (HMC).

Teaching responsibilities will include clinical bedside teaching of medical students, residents, and fellows.
