Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)

About The Role
We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine cutting-edge AI models on advanced scientific topics. Your deep domain expertise will directly shape how AI reasons through complex biochemistry — from protein folding to metabolic flux — making a real impact on the future of scientific AI. This is a fully remote, adaptable 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 — Craft challenging biochemistry questions across domains like nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, enzyme kinetics, and drug-target interactions to stress-test AI performance
• Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as gold-standard benchmarks for high-level scientific reasoning
• Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical reasoning for scientific accuracy and adherence to established standards
• Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied biological principles, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance




• Work Independently — Complete assignments asynchronously on a schedule that fits your life Who You Are
• Holds a PhD (completed or near completion) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
• Deep foundational knowledge in one or more core areas: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or molecular genetics
• Able to communicate highly technical biological and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in writing
• High attention to detail 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, quality evaluation, or academic peer review
• Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST
• Background in scientific writing or technical communication Why Join Us
• Work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading AI research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
• Contribute to meaningful work that advances AI's scientific reasoning capabilities
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
• Get firsthand exposure to how advanced large language models are trained and evaluated
