Biology Expert (Masters/PhDs)
About this role
About the Role What if your years of biology training could directly shape how AI reasons about genetics, disease, and life itself? We're looking for biology experts — Masters and PhD holders — to tackle advanced scientific problems that teach cutting-edge AI models to think more rigorously about the life sciences. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and specialists who want to put their expertise to work on something genuinely meaningful — without the constraints of a traditional lab or academic environment. - Organization: Alignerr - Type: Hourly Contract - Location: Remote - Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do - Develop, solve, and review advanced biology problems with real-world scientific relevance - Apply your expertise in genetics, molecular biology, biotechnology, or bioinformatics to design challenging, nuanced problem statements - Evaluate AI-generated scientific reasoning for accuracy, depth, and rigor - Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to improve how AI models handle complex biological concepts - Ensure scientific clarity, precision, and depth across all deliverables Who You Are - Hold a Master's or PhD in Biology or a closely related field — Genetics, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, or equivalent - Have strong hands-on expertise in at least one of: genetics, biotechnology, or bioinformatics - Comfortable writing Python or R for research, analysis, or data processing - Exceptional written communicator — you can explain complex science clearly and precisely - Detail-oriented and rigorous in your approach to scientific problems - Fluent in English Nice to Have - Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or AI evaluation workflows - Background in computational biology, systems biology, or bioinformatics pipelines - Experience designing or reviewing exam questions, research assessments, or scientific curricula - Familiarity with AI or machine learning tools used in biological research Why Join Us - Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams - Fully remote and asynchronous — work when and where it suits you - Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based expert work - Contribute to AI development that improves how these systems understand and reason about science - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
