Physician Assistant - Remote AI Contract
Listing checked September 22, 2026 · pay as published by AfterQuery
Overview
AfterQuery hires PA-C certified physician assistants to create clinical reasoning scenarios that frontier AI labs use to test model judgment. You will write realistic patient presentations, workups, and plans, then grade model output for diagnostic accuracy and patient safety. The role is remote and asks for at least 10 hours each week. Pay ranges from $80 to $120 per hour, with payment each week through Stripe based on your experience.
What You'll Do4
- 1Create patient cases that move from first presentation through workup and treatment plan.
- 2Draft model answers that explain the reasoning behind every clinical choice.
- 3Review AI responses for diagnostic accuracy and risks to patient safety.
- 4Identify recommendations that sound credible but could injure or endanger a patient.
Requirements8
- 1Active PA-C certification from NCCPA with no restrictions.
- 2Current license to practice as a PA in at least one U.S. state.
- 3Two or more years of clinical practice after completing PA school rotations.
- 4Strong written English for clear clinical reasoning documentation.
- 5Availability of at least 10 hours each week.
- 6Depth in emergency medicine, surgery, or primary care.
- 7Experience precepting, teaching, or reviewing charts.
- 8CAQ specialty credential.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate holds a current PA-C and an active state license, with at least two years of practice beyond rotations. Emergency, surgical, or primary care clinicians will fit best, such as those who have precepted, taught, or reviewed charts. A CAQ credential adds weight. The role suits PAs who want to write and evaluate clinical reasoning instead of see patients on a fixed schedule. Applicants often score low when they list only rotations or classroom work, or when their writing lacks clear reasoning that AI trainers can follow. Candidates who cannot commit 10 hours each week or who dislike detailed written grading should skip this contract.
Salary Insight
Pay sits at $80 to $120 per hour, paid each week through Stripe. For contract clinical work with AI labs, this range matches experienced PAs with specialty depth, and the final rate depends on your background and license history.
