About this role
Role Overview
Help a leading AI research team improve how advanced AI models reason about real clinical work. In this hybrid, full-time role, you will apply practicing-clinician judgment to define high-quality clinical tasks, model answers, and evaluation standards alongside research and program management teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Review clinical knowledge tasks and model outputs for missing behaviors, weak reasoning, unsafe recommendations, departures from clinical guidelines, and plausible-sounding answers that do not meet clinical standards.
- Write detailed instruction specifications and gold-standard solutions for clinical problems.
- Create clinical tasks that reflect real-world medical practice.
- Design challenging benchmarks and evaluation sets to measure model improvement.
- Partner with researchers to develop medicine-specific capabilities and tools.
- Calibrate standards with researchers and adjacent-domain specialists, turning implicit clinical judgment into clear, teachable criteria.
Qualifications
- MD or DO from an accredited medical school, with completed residency training in a recognized specialty.
- At least 4 years of post-residency clinical practice. Residency and fellowship training do not count toward this requirement.
- Active, unrestricted medical license in at least one U.S. state and board certification in your specialty.
- Established expertise in a clinical specialty, such as internal medicine, oncology, radiology, emergency medicine, surgery, psychiatry, or a medical subspecialty.
- Senior clinical progression, such as Attending Physician, Medical Director, Division Chief, Associate or full Professor, or Chief Medical Officer, with meaningful ownership of clinical decisions.
- Hands-on professional use of large language models and the ability to distinguish sound clinical reasoning from convincing but incorrect answers.
- Excellent written communication and the ability to provide precise, structured feedback.
- Experience in utilization management, clinical informatics, or medical affairs is a plus.
Work Terms
- Full-time W-2 hourly employment, with an initial 6-month commitment and reliable availability for 40 hours per week.
- Hybrid role based in the Bay Area, California. You must live in the Bay Area and be available to work on-site with the client team multiple days per week when required.
- This is not a remote position. Candidates outside the Bay Area must relocate at their own expense before the engagement begins; relocation assistance is not provided.
- You will work within the client’s tools alongside internal research teams and receive client-issued accounts and equipment.
- The position is a structured, role-based placement within an enterprise team, not a freelance engagement.
Compensation
$70 to $110 per hour.
