Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)

About The Role

We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help evaluate and improve cutting-edge AI models trained on advanced scientific content. Your expertise will directly shape how AI understands and 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 —
- Create advanced biochemistry questions and scenarios across domains like nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, structural biology, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI performance.
- Author Gold-Standard Solutions —
- Write precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that guide AI reasoning in high-level scientific contexts.
- Audit AI Outputs —
- Review AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical reasoning for technical accuracy, logical consistency, and adherence to scientific standards.
- Identify and Correct Reasoning Errors —
- Spot flaws such as incorrect stoichiometry, misunderstood stereochemistry, or faulty mechanistic reasoning, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance.




- Work Independently —
- Complete task-based assignments on your own schedule, asynchronously and remotely.

Who You Are

- PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
- Strong foundational expertise in areas such as enzymology, structural biology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or molecular genetics
- Ability to communicate complex biological and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in written form
- High attention to detail when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols
- Self-motivated, reliable, and comfortable working independently
- No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

- Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or scientific review workflows
- Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST
- Background in science writing, curriculum development, or technical editing

Why Join Us

- Work on meaningful, intellectually stimulating projects at the frontier of AI and life sciences
- Fully remote and versatile — work on your own schedule, wherever you are
- Collaborate with a global network of expert contributors and top AI research teams
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and the satisfaction of shaping how AI understands science
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
