DESCRIPTION

General Clinician (MD/DO) - HLS Expert Pool About the Role Mercor is hiring residency-trained physicians across specialties for non-clinical work developing and evaluating clinical AI systems. You will apply your clinical judgment to grading-criteria development, dialogue evaluation, and structured annotation work that determines how these systems are measured. This is a non-clinical role — no direct patient care, and no responsibility for live diagnosis. This is a shared expert pool. After onboarding you may be matched to any of several concurrent clinical workstreams based on your specialty, availability, and interest. You are not committing to a single project, and you may move between streams as priorities shift. What you may work on Work varies by workstream and may include: Grading criteria development — taking a clinical question and breaking the ideal answer into discrete, checkable criteria, so a model response can be graded consistently rather than impressionistically. Clinical dialogue evaluation — reviewing multi-turn clinical conversations and judging them for accuracy, safety, completeness, appropriate hedging, and whether escalation advice was correct. Clinical reasoning annotation — recording how you would work through a case, including the differential you considered and rejected, not only the conclusion. Output review — flagging hallucinated findings, dangerous omissions, unsupported certainty, and advice that is technically correct but clinically unsafe. Guideline authoring — defining edge cases and standards of care for your specialty so annotation stays consistent across a large group of clinicians. Difficult-case writing — constructing clinical questions that probe the limits of current model reasoning. Task length varies by stream, from roughly 45 minutes for a dialogue evaluation up to an hour or more for grading-criteria authoring. You will get a specific throughput target for whichever stream you are matched to. Required
