Use your hands-on experience in statistics, biostatistics, actuarial science or a related field to write research-level problems for AI models. Remote, flexible contract work. AfterQuery works with leading AI labs to build the expert data that tests and trains AI models. We're looking for applied statisticians who work with real operational, survey or insurance data: the messy real-world datasets you work with. Requirements Technical: Working knowledge of Python (R is a plus) for analyzing your own data. Work authorization: Must be able to work as an independent contractor without visa sponsorship. Students on F-1 visas (including OPT/CPT) are not eligible. Preferred Background: a Master's or PhD in statistics or an actuarial credential, with applied industry or agency work. Hands-on work with real data, rather than pure methodology or theory. Contract and pay Flexible, independent-contractor work: $300 per approved task, about 6 hours each (roughly $50 per hour), with no cap on how many tasks you take on. All accepted experts undergo standard background and identity verification.
AfterQuery is a Y Combinator-backed company that produces expert data for frontier AI labs. It hires professionals and specialists to build hard evaluation problems, write gold-standard answers and review model reasoning.
