Job description

Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)

About the Role

We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine some of the world's most advanced AI models. Your deep scientific expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex topics — from protein folding and enzyme kinetics to metabolic flux and molecular genetics.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience is required — just rigorous scientific knowledge and sharp analytical thinking.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Design Challenging Problems — Create advanced biochemistry questions spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, structural biology, and drug-target interactions to stress-test AI reasoning
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical responses that serve as benchmarks for high-level scientific accuracy
  • Audit AI Outputs — Review AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for correctness and adherence to scientific standards
  • Identify Reasoning Errors — Catch logical flaws such as incorrect stoichiometry, misapplied stereochemistry, or faulty metabolic logic, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance
  • Work Asynchronously — Complete tasks independently on your own schedule with no fixed hours

Who You Are

  • PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
  • Strong foundational expertise in areas such as enzymology, structural biology, cellular metabolism, or bioinformatics
  • Able to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and precisely in written form
  • High attention to detail when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently
  • No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

  • Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or research review workflows
  • Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST
  • Background in scientific writing, peer review, or technical editing

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects in partnership with leading AI research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and how much you want
  • Directly influence how AI understands and communicates advanced science
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
