Job Description & How to Apply Below
We’re looking for a Contract Psychometrician to help us adapt validated psychological assessments into simplified, product-friendly questions for our client intake and profiling system.
You’ll work with our product and content teams to adapt validated psychological assessments into simplified, user-friendly questions that preserve construct validity and enable tag-based client profiling
Your work will directly influence how users are understood, categorized, and guided to the right interventions across our product ecosystem.
Responsibilities- Review validated assessments (e.g., PHQ-9, GAD-7, BFI, etc.) and identify core constructs relevant for our client profiling model.
- Simplify and rephrase items into short, accessible questions while maintaining construct alignment and internal consistency.
- Develop short-form versions (3–6 questions per domain) suitable for tagging and personalization logic.
- Collaborate with Product and Clinical teams to define response scales, scoring logic, and tag mappings.
- Document rationale and traceability between simplified items and original validated scales.
- Provide feedback on psychometric soundness during pilot testing and data collection phases.
- Validate the modified (shortened/product-friendly) questions against the original validated instrument to ensure fidelity.
- Master’s or PhD in Psychometrics, Psychology, or Educational Measurement (or equivalent experience).
- Demonstrated experience in test construction, adaptation, and validation (e.g., reliability, construct validity).
- Strong grasp of psychological constructs like motivation, emotion regulation, and wellbeing.
- Ability to simplify complex assessments for lay audiences without losing validity.
- Excellent written communication and clear documentation skills.
