We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine the next generation of AI models. Your deep expertise in areas like protein folding, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic flux will directly shape how AI reasons about life science — making a real impact on the future of scientific AI.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience required.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design Advanced Problems — Create challenging biochemistry problems across domains like nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, structural biology, and drug-target interactions to rigorously stress-test AI performance
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as gold-standard benchmarks for AI scientific reasoning
Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical derivations for technical accuracy and adherence to scientific standards
Identify Reasoning Failures — Spot logical errors in AI reasoning — 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 progress) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
Deep Domain Knowledge: Strong expertise in one or more areas — structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or related disciplines
Clear Technical Communicator: Able to explain complex biological and chemical concepts with precision and clarity in written form
Detail-Oriented: High level of rigor when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental logic
No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, evaluation, or quality assurance workflows
Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST
Background in scientific writing or peer review
