Resident Medical Specialist (MD/DO)
Overview
This remote role places licensed physicians at the center of AI evaluation for clinical reasoning. You will design test scenarios, assessment frameworks, and gap analyses for medical AI systems, collaborating directly with AI researchers. The engagement is flexible and can fit around your clinical schedule, requiring up to 30 hours per week over a one-month contract, with possible extensions based on performance. Your hands-on medical judgment will shape how AI models handle real-world diagnostic and management problems.
What You'll Do6
- 1Collaborate with research teams to evaluate and improve how AI systems reason through clinical cases.
- 2Develop evaluation methods that test AI performance on real medical problems where clinical expertise matters.
- 3Create realistic clinical scenarios that challenge AI decision-making and diagnostic accuracy.
- 4Build assessment criteria that capture the subtleties of actual clinical practice.
- 5Identify weaknesses in AI medical knowledge and reasoning processes.
- 6Work with AI researchers to turn clinical insights into concrete model improvements.
Requirements4
- 1Hold an active medical license (MD or DO) and maintain current clinical practice in any specialty.
- 2Apply evidence-based medicine and clinical decision-making in everyday patient care.
- 3Show strong analytical skills and an ability to communicate clinical concepts clearly to engineers.
- 4Demonstrate genuine interest in how AI can support and enhance clinical practice.
Who Should Apply
This role suits a practicing physician who enjoys translating clinical experience into structured assessments for AI systems. Candidates without an active license or recent clinical practice will not fit, since the work demands current medical judgment. Applicants who struggle to explain clinical nuance to non-clinicians may find collaboration difficult. Common rejection reasons include lacking concrete examples of scenario design or showing no familiarity with AI evaluation methods. Specialists who prefer direct patient care over analytical, project-based work should probably pass on this engagement.
