From the SME Careers listing
In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as a Nurse Specialist and/or Nurse Practitioner (NP) Subject Matter Expert (SME) to review AI-generated clinical responses and/or create expert healthcare content, evaluating reasoning quality and step-by-step clinical problem-solving while providing precise written feedback. You will assess solutions for accuracy, clarity, safety, and adherence to the prompt; identify errors in advanced assessment, diagnosis/differential thinking, ordering/interpretation of tests, prescribing/medication management (where within scope), care pathway selection, and escalation/red-flag recognition; fact-check clinical information; write high-quality explanations and model solutions that demonstrate correct reasoning; and rate and compare multiple responses based on correctness and reasoning quality.
Nurse Practitioners and Specialist Nurses across a range of fields, including but not limited to Family NP (FNP), Adult-Gerontology NP (AGNP), Acute Care NP (ACNP), Pediatric NP (PNP), Psychiatric-Mental Health NP (PMHNP), Women’s Health NP (WHNP), Neonatal NP (NNP), Nurse Midwife (CNM), Oncology NP, Cardiology NP, Emergency/Trauma NP, ICU/Critical Care NP, Perioperative/OR, Wound Care, Diabetes Education, and Community/Public Health advanced practice are welcomed.
This role is with SME Careers, a fast-growing AI Data Services company and subsidiary of SuperAnnotate, delivering training data for many of the world’s largest AI companies and foundation-model labs. Your healthcare expertise directly helps improve the world’s premier AI models by making their clinical and public-health reasoning more accurate, reliable, and clearly explained.
Important: There is no immediate project for this role; however, if qualified, you will be among the first experts we reach out to when relevant opportunities arise. This will also provide you with access to future projects available through our expert network.
Key responsibilities
- Develop AI Training Content: Create detailed prompts and gold-standard answers aligned to your specialty (assessment, diagnosis, management, patient education, documentation).
- Optimize AI Performance: Evaluate and rank AI responses to improve correctness, safety, clarity, and contextual relevance.
- Ensure Model Integrity: Test AI outputs for inaccuracies, unsafe recommendations, and bias; validate reliability across patient populations and scenarios.
Your profile
- NP / APRN (or equivalent advanced practice nursing qualification) with active licensure/registration (or eligibility) in at least one jurisdiction.
- 5+ years of nursing experience overall, including 2+ years in an advanced practice/specialist role (preferred).
- Strong advanced clinical reasoning: differential diagnosis, triage, red-flag recognition, and escalation aligned with your scope and setting.
- Experience managing common and complex conditions appropriate to your specialty, including follow-up planning, referrals, and patient education.
- Strong medication safety judgment, including contraindications, interactions (high level), renal/hepatic considerations (as relevant), and monitoring plans—within scope.
- Exceptional attention to detail when fact-checking and identifying unsafe assumptions, missing contraindications, inappropriate tests/therapies, or misinterpretation of results; minimum C1 English proficiency.
- Comfortable evaluating answers for internal consistency (timeline, physiology, dosing logic checks, guideline alignment), appropriateness for setting (ED vs inpatient vs outpatient), and patient-safety implications.
- Reliable, self-directed, and able to deliver consistent quality in an hourly, remote contractor workflow across time zones.
- Prior experience with AI data training/annotation, utilization review, clinical documentation review, guideline work, or healthcare editorial QA is strongly preferred.
🌍 Geographic Availability This role is available to qualified experts globally. However, as a U.S.-based company, SME Careers complies with U.S. export control and sanctions regulations. Eligibility depends on your country of residence and any applicable trade restrictions. Some projects may have additional language or region-specific requirements.
💰 Pay Rate May Vary Based on Your Location Your actual compensation will be determined based on your location and local market conditions. See regional job listings for localized pay information, or the application process will clarify your specific rate.
If you're unsure whether you're eligible, proceed with the application—SME's screening will determine your jurisdiction status and applicable compensation.
How long hiring takes
Across the AI training platforms we refer candidates to, the median gap between referral and hire is about 30 days. It varies by platform and role, so treat it as a rough guide for this one.
Interview Prep
Sample questions for a Nurse Practitioner role, written in-house to help you prepare.
How do you approach a patient assessment when the presenting symptoms don't clearly point to a single diagnosis?
I gather a thorough history and consider a broad differential before narrowing based on the most likely and most dangerous possibilities first, rather than anchoring early on the first plausible diagnosis. Ruling out the serious possibilities early protects against missing something urgent even if it's less likely statistically.
What's your approach to managing a patient with a chronic condition who isn't adhering well to their treatment plan?
I try to understand the specific barrier to adherence, whether it's cost, side effects, or a misunderstanding of the plan, rather than assuming the patient simply isn't motivated. Adjusting the plan to address the actual barrier tends to improve adherence more than repeating the same instructions more firmly.
How do you adapt your communication approach for patients from different cultural backgrounds, especially around sensitive health topics?
I ask open-ended questions about the patient's own understanding and preferences rather than assuming a single communication style works for everyone, since cultural context can significantly shape how comfortable someone is discussing certain topics or accepting certain kinds of care. I use interpreter services rather than relying on family members for medical translation when language is a barrier.
What's your process for deciding when a patient's condition requires referral to a specialist rather than continued management in primary care?
I refer when the condition is outside my scope of expertise or isn't responding to the treatment approaches available in primary care, rather than continuing to manage it out of convenience for the patient. I make the referral decision based on the patient's actual clinical trajectory, not just protocol timing.
Why this role
This Nurse Practitioner role pays $90/hr to review AI-generated clinical responses at an advanced-practice level. SME Careers wants an NP or APRN credential with active licensure, plus five or more years of nursing experience including at least two in an advanced-practice role. The work involves the same differential-diagnosis and escalation judgment an NP uses in practice, applied to AI output instead of a patient chart.

Common questions
How does SME Careers pay freelancers?
Weekly, through Deel. Deel also handles tax compliance, which is how SME Careers pays contractors across more than 40 countries without running its own international payroll.
Is SME Careers work ongoing or project-based?
Project-based. Assignment duration and availability vary by project, but consistently high-quality work earns priority access to whatever comes next.
Do task-based AI training roles require an interview?
Most skip a live interview entirely and gate access through an automated assessment or qualification task instead. Where we've confirmed the specific requirement for this listing, it's called out above in What We Know About This Role.
What does task-based AI training work look like?
Practical, hands-on data work: recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. Tasks are designed to be short and distinct, typically 5 to 60 minutes each.
What does Healthcare work look like for a Nurse Practitioner?
Tasks here are scoped to Healthcare, not generic labeling. As a Nurse Practitioner, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Healthcare) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Healthcare background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Care Pathways, Patient Safety, Diagnostic Testing, and Evidence-Based Practice are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening process to test for them directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $90/hr, a per-task rate. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to SME Careers's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.
