Job description

Overview

Human Frontier Collective Fellow - Medical (US) is a fully remote contract opportunity, estimated duration 6 months. To be eligible, you must have authorization to work in the U.S.

This role is part of Scale AI's Human Frontier Collective program. The Medical Fellow will apply clinical training to help develop and evaluate tools that interact with complex medical content, influencing how emerging systems reason through diagnosis, triage, and patient care scenarios.

What You'll Do

• Design Complex Clinical Scenarios: Create detailed case studies and clinical reasoning tasks across specialties to test how systems interpret symptoms, assess risks, and prioritize care.
• Evaluate Decision-Making Approaches: Review and critique structured outputs for clinical safety, accuracy, and sound judgment. Identify errors in logic or inappropriate treatment suggestions.
• Shape Reasoning Frameworks: Provide structured, example-driven feedback to improve how models understand differentials, guidelines, and clinical narratives.
• Work Across Specialized Projects: Contribute to targeted workstreams in internal medicine, emergency care, radiology, psychiatry, and other domains aligned with your background.

Who Should Apply

• Graduates of a licensed medical school (MD or DO), board certified and in residency, post-residency, practicing, or with extensive practice
• Recent or current clinical experience in inpatient, outpatient, or academic settings
• Strong writing and clinical reasoning skills, with comfort assessing edge cases and nuanced scenarios
• Backgrounds welcome from internal medicine, emergency medicine, radiology, surgery, psychiatry, and related fields
• Nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses with deep clinical experience may also be considered
• Fluency in written English is required

Why Join the HFC?

• Contribute to High-Impact Work: Apply medical expertise to problems that require real judgment, not rote recall. Your input will influence how complex reasoning tasks are handled.
• Competitive Compensation + Flexible Remote Work: Highly competitive compensation ($80-100/hour). Set your own schedule and contribute from anywhere. Most participants engage between 5-20 hours per week.
• Pathways for Growth: High-impact contributors may be invited to join additional review projects, advisory roles, or research collaborations.

How to Apply

Submit your CV and a brief summary of your clinical background. Selected candidates will be invited to complete a short trial task and interview.

Note: Our policy requires a 90-day waiting period before reconsidering candidates for the same role to ensure a fair and thorough evaluation of all applicants.
