Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training) About The Role We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine cutting-edge AI models on advanced scientific topics. Your expertise will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex biochemistry — from protein folding and enzyme kinetics to metabolic flux and molecular genetics. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role working alongside world-leading AI research teams.
No prior AI experience required — your scientific depth is what matters.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do Design Complex Problems — Create advanced biochemistry challenges across areas like proteomics, nucleic acid chemistry, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI performance
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write accurate, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as gold-standard benchmarks for AI scientific reasoning
Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for technical accuracy and scientific integrity
Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as incorrect stoichiometry or misapplied stereochemistry, and provide structured feedback to improve how the model thinks through life science problems
Work Independently — Complete task-based assignments asynchronously on a schedule that works for you Who You Are Advanced Degree: PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
