We are looking for experienced Licensed Clinical Social Workers to contribute their clinical expertise to the development and evaluation of next-generation AI systems.
This opportunity is designed for practicing clinicians who can apply real-world clinical judgment to complex scenarios and clearly explain why a response, recommendation, or intervention is appropriate—or where it falls short.
You will help create realistic clinical scenarios, develop expert reference responses, and evaluate AI-generated outputs for clinical accuracy, ethical practice, safety, and appropriate risk management.
Create realistic clinical scenarios involving intake, assessment, safety planning, resource navigation, and ethical dilemmas.
Develop expert reference responses that reflect sound clinical judgment and established practice principles.
Evaluate AI-generated responses for clinical accuracy, appropriateness, ethics, and risk handling.
Identify responses that may appear supportive or plausible but could be inappropriate or harmful in real-world practice.
Clearly explain the clinical reasoning behind your evaluations.
Help identify gaps in how AI systems understand behavioral health, social services, crisis intervention, and client needs.
This opportunity is well suited to licensed clinical social workers with meaningful hands-on experience and strong written communication skills.
You should have:
An active, unencumbered LCSW license in the United States.
At least 2 years of clinical practice after licensure.
Experience with case conceptualization, safety planning, and crisis intervention.
The ability to communicate clinical reasoning clearly and precisely.
Strong written English and clinical documentation skills.
The ability to commit at least 10 hours per week.
Additional experience in any of the following areas is valuable:
Medical or healthcare social work
School social work
Child welfare
Crisis services
Clinical supervision
Behavioral health
Evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, or motivational interviewing
$145,600 - $218,400/year equivalent

Your hourly rate is determined by your experience and qualifications
Apply your professional expertise beyond traditional clinical settings.
Help improve how AI systems understand behavioral health and social services.
Work remotely with flexibility around your existing professional commitments.
Contribute to the development of safer, more clinically responsible AI systems.
Take on ongoing project work with the ability to determine your availability each week.
Application — Submit your resume and complete a short set of questions.
Resume Review — Your experience will be reviewed against the requirements for the opportunity.
Written Assessment — Selected candidates may be invited to complete a written clinical assessment.
Onboarding — Complete the contractor onboarding process and receive access to the platform.
Project Matching — Once onboarded, you may be matched with projects aligned with your clinical expertise.
This is a professional expert-contributor opportunity and does not involve providing direct patient care. Work is focused on creating, reviewing, and evaluating clinical content for AI development and assessment.
Projects may vary in scope and duration. Opportunities can be extended, shortened, or concluded based on project requirements and performance.
