About the Role
What if your years of chemistry expertise could directly shape how AI reasons through the most complex scientific problems in the world? We're looking for Chemistry Experts with advanced degrees to design, solve, and evaluate graduate-level chemistry problems that help train cutting-edge AI models to think like scientists.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for working researchers, postdocs, faculty, and industry scientists who want meaningful work on their own schedule. No prior AI experience needed — just deep chemistry knowledge and a commitment to scientific rigor.
- 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
- Review and evaluate AI-generated scientific content for accuracy, depth, and reasoning quality
- Develop complex, real-world problem statements that challenge and improve AI model reasoning
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts
- Ensure scientific rigor, clarity, and precision across all deliverables
- Apply computational tools or coding skills where relevant to problem design and validation
Who You Are
- Hold a Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
- Deep expertise in at least one area: organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
- Comfortable working with Python or computational chemistry software (e.g., Gaussian, VASP)
- Exceptionally detail-oriented with strong scientific communication skills
- Self-motivated and reliable when working independently and asynchronously
- Fluent in English
Nice to Have
- Experience with data annotation, scientific evaluation, or quality assurance workflows
- Background in AI, machine learning, or cheminformatics
- Familiarity with molecular modeling, reaction mechanisms, or materials science
- Experience writing for scientific publication or peer review
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based scientific work
- Apply your expertise to problems that directly influence how AI understands science
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
