Overview

AfterQuery builds the evaluation and training data that frontier AI labs use to measure what their models can and cannot do in professional work. Licensed veterinarians in this contractor role write veterinary case scenarios that run from patient presentation through treatment plan, then supply the reference answers those cases get graded against. Work runs async with no fixed hours, and you pick your own weekly volume above a ten hour floor. Pay falls between $95 and $145 per hour, sent weekly through Stripe and set from your experience level.

What You'll Do5

  • Compose realistic case write-ups across species, following each patient from first presentation through assessment and a care plan.
  • Draft reference answers that lay out species specific reasoning, drug dosing and differential lists.
  • Score model responses on diagnostic soundness, awareness of toxic risk and overall safety.
  • Call out guidance that is unsafe, outside veterinary scope or invented, and state the exact reason it fails.
  • Keep written reasoning detailed enough that another veterinarian can follow and check it.

Requirements8

  • DVM or VMD with a current, unencumbered veterinary license in the US.
  • Two or more years of clinical practice.
  • Depth in small animal, large animal or mixed practice, including solid grounding in pharmacology and dosing.
  • Written English strong enough to document clinical reasoning for a peer audience.
  • Availability of at least 10 hours per week.
  • Board certification or residency training in ACVIM, ACVECC or ACVS (preferred).
  • Experience with emergency and critical care caseloads (preferred).
  • Background with exotic, equine or production animals (preferred).

Who Should Apply

The role suits a practicing veterinarian with at least two years in the clinic who can explain a diagnosis, a dose and a differential in clear written English. Emergency vets and boarded specialists will recognize the case mix. Ten hours per week is the only floor.

Salary Insight

The listing posts $120 per hour, and the stated band runs $95 to $145 per hour, paid weekly through Stripe to an independent contractor. Your rate follows your experience level rather than dropping after you sign, so boarded specialists and veterinarians with heavy emergency caseloads tend to sit at the top of that band.
