This is a remote, flexible and short-term project.

Key Responsibilities

  • Structured Annotation: Identify clinically relevant concepts across discharge summaries, lab results and prognosis notes, and map them to the correct SNOMED CT codes on a dedicated platform.

  • Guideline Application: Work to a coding guideline covering hierarchy scope, negation, medication scope, section-level inclusions and compound coding, applied consistently across a large volume of documents.

  • Edge Case Handling: Flag ambiguous or contested cases with a short rationale so guidance can be refined.

  • Quality Review: Participate in adjudication rounds to resolve disagreements and reach a consensus code set.

Qualifications:

Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of clinical practice, with SNOMED CT coding or clinical terminology experience.

Knowledge: Strong grounding in clinical documentation, terminology and coding conventions.

Attention to detail: Proven accuracy and consistency in coding or clinical review work.

Technical proficiency: Comfortable using structured annotation tools and digital platforms.

Language: Native or near-native written English.

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive Compensation: Hourly rate, paid weekly

  • Professional Development: Hands-on experience in clinical AI development and terminology work, shaping how AI systems interpret clinical records and assign medical codes.
