What You'll Do

  • Review and annotate clinical and research datasets with accuracy and consistency
  • Apply high-quality labels to complex medical data following structured guidelines

  • Ability to follow detailed annotation guidelines precisely and consistently
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  • Clear written communication skills
  • Prior annotation or data labeling experience is a plus but not required

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with electronic health records (EHR) or medical terminology

Why Join Us

  • Contribute directly to cutting-edge medical AI research
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your schedule
  • Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging tasks
  • Collaborate with researchers and data teams on high-impact projects
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
