Overview

AfterQuery needs certified Medical Assistants to build the clinical reasoning tests that train AI models. You will write case studies and question sets covering patient intake, vital signs assessment, EHR documentation, lab procedures and pharmacology basics, then grade how well a model answers them. The work sits between hands-on clinical practice and AI development, so your day-to-day knowledge of how a clinic actually runs becomes the benchmark. Everything happens remote and asynchronous, which means you set your own hours around existing shifts.

What You'll Do7

  • Write clinical questions and case scenarios that push AI models on intake workflows, vital sign interpretation, procedures, EHR charting, lab work and drug basics.
  • Score model responses against real medical assisting standards and explain in writing where an answer falls short.
  • Give detailed corrective feedback that names the specific clinical error and the correct practice.
  • Work with healthcare and engineering teammates to calibrate how hard each question set should be.
  • Adjust difficulty so the material stays rigorous without becoming unfair or ambiguous.
  • Check your own items for clinical accuracy before they enter the training set.
  • Cover a spread of settings and tasks so the dataset reflects real clinical variety.

Requirements5

  • Current Medical Assistant certification in good standing (CMA, RMA, CCMA or equivalent).
  • Graduation from an accredited Medical Assistant program or comparable training path.
  • Hands-on clinical experience across both patient-facing and administrative duties.
  • Sharp analytical reading and clear written communication, with close attention to clinical detail.
  • Ability to spot small inaccuracies in a model's answer and explain why they matter.

Who Should Apply

Certified Medical Assistants with several years of real clinic experience who can explain clinical reasoning in plain written English. Ideal if you have worked across primary care, specialty or urgent care settings and want to apply that range to AI training work.

Salary Insight

The rate is $45.00 per hour, well above what most clinical Medical Assistant positions pay per hour. That premium reflects the specialized writing and evaluation skill the work demands, so candidates with multiple years of practice and extra certifications sit at the top of the pool.
