Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert - AI Content Specialist
About this role
About the Role We're looking for PhD-level biochemists to help train and refine some of the world's most advanced AI models. Your deep scientific knowledge will directly shape how AI reasons about complex biological systems — from protein folding to metabolic pathways — making a real impact on the future of AI in life sciences. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You set your schedule and work as much or as little as you want, week to week. - Organization: Alignerr - Type: Hourly Contract - Location: Remote - Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do - Design Challenging Problems — Craft advanced biochemistry questions and scenarios spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, enzyme kinetics, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI reasoning. - Author Gold-Standard Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for high-level scientific reasoning in AI systems. - Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and quantitative analyses for scientific accuracy and adherence to established standards. - Identify and Correct Reasoning Errors — Spot logical failures such as incorrect stoichiometry, misapplied stereochemistry, or flawed mechanistic reasoning, and provide structured feedback to improve AI performance. - Work Independently and Asynchronously — Complete tasks on your own schedule with no meetings required. Who You Are - PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related discipline - Strong foundational expertise in one or more of: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or molecular genetics - Able to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and precisely in written English - High attention to detail when working with chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental logic - Self-motivated and comfortable working independently - No prior AI experience required Nice to Have - Experience with data annotation, evaluation, or quality review workflows - Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST - Background in scientific writing, peer review, or curriculum development Why Join Us - Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside world-leading research labs - Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, from anywhere - Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration - Contribute to meaningful work that improves how AI handles complex scientific reasoning - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
