Remote QA leadership opportunity for experienced biology professionals to oversee AI training quality, review biological reasoning and life sciences content, evaluate experimental logic and scientific accuracy, ensure biosafety awareness, and support contributors across biology AI projects.
Biology & Biophysics Researchers (India, Part-time)
Job description
We are recruiting a select cohort of accomplished biology and biophysics researchers to contribute to the next generation of AI systems for scientific reasoning.
