Overview

AfterQuery supplies expert evaluation and training data to frontier AI labs, and this contract asks certified medical interpreters to build the clinical scenarios those evaluations run on. You will write realistic encounters, from intake visits through informed consent talks, then produce reference interpretations that explain why a given medical terminology choice fits the register and the clinical context. A large share of the work is judging model output in both of your working languages and catching renderings that sound smooth while shifting clinical meaning. Everything runs remote and async, with oncology and emergency style cases often on the docket.

What You'll Do8

  • Draft authentic clinical interpretation scenarios that reflect the encounters you handle in practice.
  • Produce model reference interpretations and document the terminology and register reasoning behind each one.
  • Score AI output for accuracy, completeness and clinical register across both working languages.
  • Identify fluent-sounding renderings that alter or distort the clinical meaning and mark them for review.
  • Apply professional judgment on register, from patient-friendly phrasing to formal consent language.
  • Turn your specialty knowledge into graded examples that labs can use to test model judgment.
  • Cover conversations such as intake, informed consent, oncology discussions and emergency exchanges.
  • Document your interpretation decisions in clear written English so reviewers can follow your logic.

Requirements6

  • Current CMI or CHI certification, or a comparable medical interpreter credential.
  • Two or more years interpreting in clinical settings as a working interpreter.
  • Full professional command of medical terminology in both working languages.
  • Clear, precise written English for explaining and defending interpretation choices.
  • Availability for a minimum of 10 hours per week, with no upper cap.
  • Comfort grading text output in both languages and defending the call you make.

Who Should Apply

Certified interpreters with at least two years in clinical settings who want steady contract work on AI evaluation. Strong candidates pair deep medical terminology in both languages with the writing discipline to explain each rendering choice. Oncology, emergency or consent-heavy experience helps.

Salary Insight

The listing advertises $75.00/hr, inside a posted band of $55 to $95/hr, and your rate follows your experience rather than getting renegotiated after you start. Payment goes out weekly through Stripe. Expect the top of that band to favor interpreters with specialty depth such as oncology or emergency work.
