Physician (MD/DO), Medical AI Evaluation

About the Role

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based.

We're looking for US-based, actively practicing physicians (MD/DO) to evaluate clinical EHR vignettes for a medical AI evaluation program. General and internal medicine are our main focus.

Project time expectations: 10-20 hours per week during active phases.

Compensation: Paid per accepted task, up to the equivalent of $100/hr.

Key Responsibilities

Contributors may:

• Evaluate clinical EHR vignettes paired with a question, a proposed answer, and a distractor "trap" answer across diagnosis and treatment tasks, spanning cardiovascular, nervous, hematologic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive, musculoskeletal, and integumentary systems.
• Score the clinical reasoning quality of benchmark items: vignette accuracy and completeness, whether the vignette gives the answer away, answer correctness and gradeability, and trap quality.
• Check whether the reasoning chain reaches the answer from vignette facts alone, correct reasoning traces, and write short rationales.
• Work within three independent blind reads, followed by physician adjudication.
• Focus on real clinical complexity.

Requirements & Tech Stack

• US-based physicians
• Actively practicing
• MD or DO degree
• Active, unrestricted US medical license (verified with the issuing medical board)
• Board certification or completed residency training, with recent direct patient care (attending-level preferred)
• Broad, multi-system diagnostic and treatment experience (internal, family, emergency, or hospital medicine)
• Strong clinical reasoning: differential diagnosis, next-step management, and application of evidence-based guidelines
• Strong written English (C1+)

Qualifications (A Plus)

• Prior experience in medical AI evaluation, clinical content or exam-question review, or medical annotation/QA.

This opportunity is not fit for medical students, unlicensed medical graduates, non-physician clinicians (NPs, PAs, nurses, pharmacists), or non-clinical healthcare titles.
