About the Role
What if your years of chemistry expertise could directly shape how AI understands one of the most complex and critical fields in science? We're looking for PhD-level chemists to evaluate, challenge, and improve AI systems — ensuring they reason about chemistry with the rigor and depth that the field demands.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No AI background needed — just a deep command of chemistry and a sharp, critical mind.
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: Flexible, minimum 15 hrs/week
What You'll Do
- Design and develop advanced chemistry questions spanning organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, and theoretical chemistry
- Review and critically evaluate AI-generated answers to research-level problems — identifying errors, gaps in reasoning, and areas for improvement
- Annotate and categorize complex chemistry content including specialized concepts, scientific diagrams, and experimental data
- Map relationships between chemical principles to help AI models grasp the true depth and structure of the field
- Curate comprehensive training datasets that reflect the full breadth and complexity of modern chemistry
- Provide detailed, constructive feedback that directly improves AI model performance
Who You Are
- You hold a PhD in chemistry or a closely related field, with demonstrated expertise in research, teaching, or advanced problem-solving
- You have experience developing or critically reviewing sophisticated scientific or technical content — such as research publications, graduate curricula, or complex laboratory protocols
- You excel at communicating advanced chemical concepts with clarity and precision
- You enjoy translating abstract theory into practical, well-structured analysis
- You are self-motivated, detail-oriented, and thrive working independently
Nice to Have
- Experience with data labeling, RLHF, or other AI training or model evaluation workflows
- Background spanning multiple chemistry subfields
- Experience mentoring students or junior researchers in advanced chemistry topics
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and top AI teams
- Fully remote and asynchronous — work when and where it suits you
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, high-impact work
- Your expertise directly improves how AI understands and reasons about science
- Potential for ongoing work and expanded responsibilities as new projects launch
- High performers take the lead on new programs and mentor incoming subject matter experts
