About the role
As a Biochemistry Subject Matter Expert, your deep knowledge of molecular biology, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic systems will directly shape how AI reasons through complex scientific problems.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed to fit around your existing schedule. No prior AI experience required — your scientific expertise is what matters.
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs and scientists.
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and how much you want.
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration.
- Contribute to meaningful work that shapes how AI understands science.
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.
Responsibilities
- Design Challenging Problems — Create advanced biochemistry problems spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, enzyme kinetics, and drug-target interactions to rigorously stress-test AI performance.
- Author Gold-Standard Solutions — Write 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 scientific accuracy, safety, and adherence to established standards.
- Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors — such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied biochemical principles — and deliver structured feedback to improve model performance.
- Work Independently — Complete task-based assignments asynchronously on your own schedule.
Required skills
- Have strong foundational expertise in one or more of: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, or bioinformatics.
- Can communicate complex biochemical and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in written English.
- Possess a high level of attention to detail when reviewing chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental protocols.
Preferred skills
- Experience with data annotation, data quality review, or evaluation workflows.
- Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST.
- Background in scientific writing, peer review, or technical editing.
Experience and education
- Hold a PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field.
- No prior AI or data annotation experience required.
Schedule details
10–40 hours per week.
