About the role
Role: Computational Chemist (Remote) Location: Remote (Work from Anywhere) Job Type: Contract Payout: $40 - $60/hour
Role Overview: We are hiring for one of our clients, seeking a Computational Chemistry Expert (PhD) to work on a contract basis. The position involves applying advanced computational methods to chemical research and development projects. Candidates will leverage expertise in quantum chemistry, molecular modeling, and simulation techniques to solve complex scientific problems.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement computational chemistry models to predict molecular properties and behaviors.
- Perform high-level quantum mechanical calculations using software such as Gaussian, Schrodinger, or similar tools.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to interpret computational results and guide experimental design.
- Analyze and visualize molecular dynamics data to support drug discovery or materials science initiatives.
- Publish findings in peer-reviewed journals and present results at internal or external scientific meetings.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
- PhD in Computational Chemistry, Chemistry, or a closely related field.
- Proficiency with computational chemistry software including Gaussian, Schrodinger, or VASP.
- Experience in quantum mechanics, molecular dynamics, or density functional theory (DFT).
- Strong programming skills in Python, C++, or Fortran for scientific computing applications.
- Familiarity with high-performance computing (HPC) environments and parallel computing techniques.
- Ability to interpret complex scientific data and communicate findings to technical and non-technical audiences.
More About the Opportunity: This role offers a unique opportunity to work with a global leader in the Pharmaceutical Manufacturing industry, contributing to breakthroughs in drug discovery and development. The project will focus on accelerating molecular simulations to reduce research timelines and costs.
Equal Opportunity Employer: We hire based on skills and expertise. All qualified candidates are welcome regardless of background, experience, or prior employment history. Applications are reviewed solely on demonstrated technical ability and qualifications.

About Hire Feed
HireFeed: A QuikHire product.
Earn in dollars. On your hours. From wherever.
HireFeed is the AI-curated feed of contract, gig, and AI training jobs that pay in USD, built for the people who actually want to work, not the ones writing job descriptions.
Why it exists: the highest-paying contract work in the world - RLHF, AI evaluation, domain-expert training, senior contract engineering, sits scattered across hundreds of ATS feeds and platform job boards. Most of it never makes it to Indeed or LinkedIn, and the roles that do are usually stale by the time you find them. The best opportunities are also the most ephemeral.
HireFeed pulls from 500+ verified sources, including Outlier, Mercor, Surge AI, Micro1, Turing, Toloka, Appen, and Remotasks, and refreshes every 60 seconds. The moment a role closes at the source, it falls off the feed.
What you'll find here:
- AI training, RLHF, and evaluation: $20–$80/hr
- Domain experts: medical, legal, finance, math (PhD)
- Senior contract engineering, paid weekly
- Multilingual annotation, creative writing training, AI research
What you won't find: pay-undisclosed listings, expired roles, "still accepting applications" lies, recruiter middlemen, or data resale. Pay is a hard requirement. Apply links 302-redirect to the source ATS. We never see your résumé.
Free for candidates, forever. Funded by the partner side.
