Job description

Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)

About the Role

We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine the next generation of AI models. Your deep scientific expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex biochemical problems — from protein folding to metabolic flux analysis — making a real impact on how AI is used in life sciences and scientific research.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience required.

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

What You'll Do

  • Design Advanced Problems — Create challenging biochemistry problems across domains such as nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, enzyme kinetics, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI performance
  • Author Gold-Standard Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for high-level AI scientific reasoning
  • Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for technical accuracy and adherence to scientific standards
  • Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors in AI responses — such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied mechanisms — and provide structured feedback to improve model quality

Who You Are

  • Advanced Degree: PhD (completed or in progress) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
  • Domain Expertise: Strong foundational knowledge in one or more areas such as structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, or bioinformatics
  • Clear Communicator: Able to explain complex biological and chemical concepts in precise, well-structured written form
  • Detail-Oriented: High level of accuracy when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols
  • No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

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

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects in partnership with world-leading AI research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, anywhere in the world
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Contribute to meaningful work that advances AI's ability to reason scientifically
  • Exposure to how advanced large language models are built and evaluated
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
