Diagnostic Medical Sonographer Expert

AfterQuery builds the expert evaluation data that frontier AI labs use to measure and improve their models. We're hiring ARDMS registered diagnostic medical sonographers as contractors to author and grade the ultrasound scenarios those evaluations run on.

What you'll actually do

• Author realistic ultrasound scenarios covering technique, findings, and next steps
• Write reference answers with the reasoning behind each protocol and measurement
• Grade model output for sonographic accuracy and patient safety
• Flag findings and advice that read right but would miss a critical diagnosis

Who this is for

• ARDMS registration (RDMS, RDCS, or RVT) in at least one specialty
• 2+ years of clinical scanning experience
• Depth in image optimization, protocol selection, and sonographic findings
• You can write technical reasoning clearly enough for another sonographer to follow it

Contract and pay

• $60 to $90/hr, paid weekly via Stripe. Your rate is set from your experience, not negotiated down after you start.
• Fully remote, fully async. No fixed hours.
• Minimum 10 hours per week, no maximum. Scale up or down week to week.
• No screen recording, no keystroke monitoring, no idle timers.
• Independent contractor. Ongoing project work rather than single task batches.
