Chemistry Expert (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of chemistry could directly shape how AI reasons through the most complex scientific problems in the world We're looking for chemistry experts — Masters and PhDs — to help train cutting-edge AI models by designing, solving, and evaluating advanced chemistry problems that push the boundaries of what AI can understand.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for working scientists and academics who want to make a meaningful impact beyond the lab — on their own schedule.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design and solve advanced chemistry problems spanning organic, inorganic, physical, and computational chemistry
- Develop complex, real-world problem statements that challenge and improve AI reasoning capabilities
- Review and evaluate AI-generated chemistry content for scientific accuracy, rigor, and depth
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to refine model outputs
- Ensure all deliverables meet high standards of scientific clarity and correctness
Who You Are
- Hold a Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
- Deep expertise in at least one core area: organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
- Comfortable working with Python or computational chemistry tools such as Gaussian or VASP
- Exceptionally clear written communicator with a sharp eye for scientific detail
- Self-directed and reliable when working independently in an asynchronous environment
- Fluent in English
Nice to Have
- Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or AI evaluation workflows
- Familiarity with machine learning concepts or AI-assisted research tools
- Background spanning multiple chemistry subfields
- Experience writing or reviewing scientific literature or technical assessments
Why Join Us
- Work on frontier AI projects alongside the world's leading research labs
- Fully remote and asynchronous — work on your own terms, around your existing commitments
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based scientific work
- Apply your expertise to problems that genuinely matter — helping AI think more like a chemist
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
