Physical Therapist Expert - Remote Contract
Listing checked September 22, 2026 · pay as published by AfterQuery
Overview
AfterQuery seeks licensed physical therapists to create movement and rehabilitation scenarios that frontier AI labs use to test model judgment. You will work 10 hours each week on a remote contract, writing cases that move from initial evaluation through progression and discharge. The role centers on physical therapy practice across orthopedic, neurologic, or acute care rehab. Pay ranges from $70 to $105 per hour, and the team works async with no productivity quotas.
What You'll Do6
- 1Build realistic rehabilitation scenarios that follow a patient from first evaluation to discharge.
- 2Write model reference answers that explain the reasoning behind each progression choice.
- 3Review AI model output for safety, contraindications, and alignment with evidence-based practice.
- 4Identify exercise recommendations that sound plausible but would put a real patient at risk.
- 5Document clinical rationale in clear written English for each scenario and grading decision.
- 6Adjust scenario difficulty and details to reflect orthopedic, neurologic, or acute care settings.
Requirements9
- 1Doctor of Physical Therapy or equivalent degree.
- 2Active, unencumbered physical therapy license in the United States.
- 3At least 2 years of clinical practice.
- 4Strong background in orthopedic, neurologic, or acute care rehabilitation.
- 5Clear written English for explaining clinical reasoning.
- 6Availability for at least 10 hours per week.
- 7Board specialty certification such as OCS, NCS, or SCS preferred.
- 8Specialization in sports, vestibular, or pelvic health preferred.
- 9Residency or fellowship training, or experience teaching clinical skills, preferred.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate holds a DPT, carries an active US PT license without restrictions, and has at least 2 years of hands-on practice in orthopedics, neurology, or acute care. A board specialty in OCS, NCS, or SCS helps, as does a sports, vestibular, or pelvic health focus. Strong writers who can explain why a progression choice is safe or unsafe will fit this work well. Candidates who lack direct patient experience or who cannot commit 10 hours per week often score low on fit. A weak application often misses the license requirement or shows no depth in a specific rehab area.
Salary Insight
Pay runs from $70 to $105 per hour, with payment through Stripe. This range sits above many standard clinical PT roles and aligns with experienced therapists who hold a specialty certification or a niche practice area. The contract asks for 10 hours each week.

VerifiedRespiratory Therapist Expert - Remote Contract
AfterQuery builds clinical review tasks that help frontier AI labs test how models reason through respiratory care. Registered respiratory therapists on this contract write realistic cases that cover assessment, intervention, and follow-up, then explain the logic behind each change to ventilator management, blood gas interpretation, and airway care. The work happens remote and async, with 10 hours per week that you control. Pay runs from $60 to $90 per hour through Stripe. Your cases and grades shape how models handle patient safety in airway and ventilation decisions.

AfterQuery
VerifiedPharmacy Technician Expert - Remote Contract
AfterQuery needs certified pharmacy technicians to turn real medication workflow knowledge into training material for frontier AI labs. You will design prescription processing and adjudication scenarios, then write the reference answers that show the exact order of operations a pharmacist or tech would follow.

Your grading also catches model output that sounds plausible but would lead to a repeat exposure or an unsafe study.
