Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert - AI Content Specialist
About this role
About the Role We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and improve the next generation of AI systems. Your deep scientific expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex biochemistry — from protein folding and enzyme kinetics to metabolic flux and molecular genetics. This is a rare opportunity to apply your research knowledge outside the lab, work on genuinely challenging problems, and contribute to cutting-edge AI development — all on your own schedule. - Organization: Alignerr - Type: Hourly Contract - Location: Remote - Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do - Design Advanced Problems — Craft challenging biochemistry scenarios across domains like nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, structural biology, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI performance - Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that guide AI toward accurate, high-level 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 such as incorrect stoichiometry, misunderstood stereochemistry, or flawed reaction mechanisms, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance 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 biological and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in written form - High attention to detail when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols - Self-directed and comfortable working independently in a remote, async environment - No prior AI experience required Nice to Have - Experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows - Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST Why Join Us - Work on intellectually stimulating problems at the frontier of AI and life sciences - Fully remote and flexible — work when and as much as you choose - Collaborate with a global network of expert scientists and researchers - Gain firsthand exposure to how advanced large language models are trained and evaluated - Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and meaningful impact - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
