Dermatologist, U.S. Licensed

Mercor is hiring experienced U.S. Dermatologists on behalf of a leading global partner focused on advancing safe, evidence-based healthcare through innovative technology. In this role, you will apply your clinical expertise to a range of image-based projects that help develop and evaluate advanced AI models for dermatology.

Work will vary by project and may include:

• Reviewing high-resolution clinical images of skin lesions and identifying dermatological conditions.
• Describing images with key medical attributes, including lesion color, shape, morphology, and distribution.
• Assessing skin health, severity, or progression from images, and evaluating how well AI-generated assessments hold up clinically.
• Writing clear guidelines and criteria that define what a high-quality dermatological assessment of an image looks like.
• Providing clinical insight to improve model understanding and classification of dermatological presentations.
• Ensuring accuracy, consistency, and adherence to medical and project standards..

• Medical degree (M.D.) with an active, unrestricted U.S. medical license.
• Minimum of 5 years post-residency clinical dermatology experience (practicing or previously practiced).
• Strong ability to identify and describe dermatological conditions using precise medical terminology.
• Prior experience with image annotation or medical education preferred.
• English fluency required.

• Shape the future of AI in dermatology and clinical image interpretation.
• Engage in impactful, non-clinical work that supports global medical innovation.
• Contribute to safe, accurate, and human-centered AI development.
