Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert - AI Content Specialist
About this role
About the Role We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more accurate science-capable AI — and we need expert biochemists to make it happen. As a Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert, your deep knowledge of molecular biology, enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and structural biology will directly shape how AI reasons about life sciences. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed for PhD-level scientists who want to apply their expertise beyond the bench — no AI background required. - Organization: Alignerr - Type: Hourly Contract - Location: Remote - Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do - Design Challenging Problems — Craft advanced biochemistry questions spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, drug-target interactions, and more to rigorously stress-test AI reasoning. - Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical responses that serve as gold-standard benchmarks for AI scientific reasoning. - Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for technical accuracy, scientific soundness, and logical consistency. - Refine AI Reasoning — Identify and document errors in AI logic — such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied enzyme kinetics — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance. Who You Are - Advanced Degree — PhD completed or in final stages in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field. - Deep Domain Knowledge — Strong expertise in one or more core areas: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or molecular genetics. - Clear Technical Communicator — Able to explain complex biochemical and chemical concepts in precise, well-structured written form. - Detail-Oriented — High accuracy when reviewing chemical equations, reaction mechanisms, 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 scientific peer review - Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST - Background in bioinformatics or cheminformatics Why Join Us - Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top-tier research labs - Fully remote and async — work when and where it suits you - Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually stimulating work - Get a front-row seat to how advanced AI models are trained and evaluated - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
