Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)
About The Role
We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help evaluate and improve the world's most advanced AI systems. Your scientific expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex topics like protein folding, metabolic flux, enzyme kinetics, and molecular genetics — making a real impact on the future of AI in life sciences.
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 Challenging Problems — Craft advanced biochemistry problems spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, structural biology, and drug-target interactions to rigorously stress-test AI reasoning. Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop 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 mathematical proofs for technical accuracy and adherence to scientific standards. Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors — such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misunderstood reaction mechanisms — and provide structured feedback to improve how the model thinks through life science problems. Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule.
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 areas such as structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, genomics, or bioinformatics. Scientific Writer: Able to communicate highly technical biological and chemical concepts clearly, concisely, and accurately in written form. Detail-Oriented: High precision when reviewing complex chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols. No prior AI experience required — your scientific expertise is what matters.
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows. Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST. Background in scientific publishing, peer review, or curriculum development.
Why Join Us
Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top AI 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 advances AI's understanding of the life sciences. Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.
