Job Description

Hi! We are AMBOSS, and we are looking for a board-certified, US-trained, practicing psychiatrist to support clinical quality assurance on a freelance basis. In this role, you will apply your clinical expertise to help us refine and optimize the psychiatry content on the AMBOSS platform. If you are a board-certified physician who values efficient, evidence–based clinical decision-making, this is an opportunity to influence medical education and help improve medical care for millions of people globally.

You will:

• Provide structured, clear, clinically relevant feedback on ~90 articles

• Flag inaccuracies, outdated information, and missing high-risk content (without having to rewrite content yourself).

• Optional Lead 1–2 brief educational sessions focusing on clinical decision-making in your clinical practice.

You bring:

• Required

  • Medical degree (MD/DO) with completed US psychiatry training (ABPN certification required)

  • Current or recent clinical practice in psychiatry in the US (within the last 2 years)

  • Strong understanding of:

    • Diagnostic reasoning

    • Psychopharmacology

    • Somatic therapies (e.g., ECT, TMS, ketamine)

  • Strong understanding of US clinical guidelines and evidence-based practice

  • Ability to efficiently collaborate asynchronously with fast turnaround

  • Ability to distinguish between board-relevant or clinically useful content and non-essential, nice-to-know details

• Bonus

  • Experience with:

    • Medical education or teaching (especially teaching residents)

    • Clinical decision support tools (e.g., AMBOSS, UpToDate)

You enjoy:

• Flexible, asynchronous work: Contribute your expertise on your own schedule.

• Direct impact: Knowing your feedback immediately improves the safety and quality of a major clinical tool

• Clinical education: Sharing your specialty knowledge to help non-specialists understand the nuances of psychiatric care

Compensation Range: $75 - $120 depending on experience level
