Job description

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 deep domain expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex biochemistry — from protein folding to metabolic flux — making a real impact on the future of scientific AI.

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 — Craft challenging biochemistry questions across domains like nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, enzyme kinetics, and drug-target interactions to stress-test AI performance
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as gold-standard benchmarks for high-level scientific reasoning
  • Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical reasoning for scientific accuracy and adherence to established standards
  • Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied biological principles, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance
  • Work Independently — Complete assignments asynchronously on a schedule that fits your life

Who You Are

  • Holds a PhD (completed or near completion) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
  • Deep foundational knowledge in one or more core areas: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or molecular genetics
  • Able to communicate highly technical biological and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in writing
  • High attention to detail when reviewing complex chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols
  • No prior AI experience required — your scientific expertise is what matters

Nice to Have

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

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading AI research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Contribute to meaningful work that advances AI's scientific reasoning capabilities
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
  • Get firsthand exposure to how advanced large language models are trained and evaluated
