Physician AI Medical Content Evaluator - Remote
Listing checked September 18, 2026 · pay as published by Handshake AI
Overview
Handshake AI needs licensed physicians to shape how future AI models handle complex medical questions. You will write challenging clinical questions, supply evidence-based reference answers, and judge model outputs for medical accuracy, reasoning, and safety. The role runs as a remote, asynchronous fellowship, so you set your own hours. Most contributors log 5 to 20 hours each week, with no minimum requirement. You join as a 1099 independent contractor and receive payment through Stripe for each completed task.

- 1Write demanding medical questions that reflect your clinical specialty and real patient scenarios.
- 2Draft clear reference answers with supporting evidence and step-by-step clinical reasoning.
- 3Review AI-generated medical responses for factual correctness, logic, and completeness.
- 4Flag errors, missing details, and unsafe recommendations in AI output.
- 5Score model performance on complex cases and explain the reasoning behind each score.
- 6Send targeted feedback that helps the model improve at handling nuanced medical topics.
Requirements6

Who Should Apply
Licensed physicians who enjoy teaching, writing, and dissecting clinical reasoning will fit this project well. The role suits specialists and primary care doctors who can craft tough questions and defend answers with evidence. If you lack a current or prior medical license in good standing, or you do not hold US work authorization, this project will not move forward. Candidates often score low when they submit general medical knowledge instead of specialty-specific examples or when their written answers lack clear support from guidelines and literature. A physician who wants a fixed full-time schedule with steady hours may find this independent contractor setup less suitable.

For project-based AI training work that calls for a licensed MD or DO, this rate sits at the high end and matches physicians with strong clinical writing skills or niche specialty knowledge. Handshake AI pays per task through Stripe each week. The listing sets no minimum hours, and most contributors work 5 to 20 hours per week, so total earnings depend on how many tasks you complete.
