Medical Expert (M.D./D.O.)
Mercor keeps this listing open to build a pool of candidates. Applying puts you in the pool; it is not a single fresh opening.
The research teams behind the best-known AI models come to Mercor for clinical judgment they can't generate on their own. Your standards and expertise become the rubric that frontier AI is graded against.
This is a standing listing for physicians who want AI training and evaluation work, not a specific job opening. It stays open whether or not a matching project is running this week.
New projects start on short notice, so instead of posting and pulling a listing each time, we keep one open per field and draw from it when one begins.
What the work looks like
We match physicians in the network to projects like:
- Writing a clinical vignette from your own practice, with the presentation, labs, and imaging, plus the attending-level reference answer a model gets graded against
- Grading model output on diagnostic reasoning: whether the differential is ordered sensibly, whether it anchors, whether the proposed workup is guideline-concordant
- Flagging where a recommendation is defensible in a textbook but wrong for the patient in front of you, given comorbidities, contraindications, or what the patient can access
