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 Specialists — Masters and PhD holders — to design, solve, and evaluate advanced chemistry problems that train cutting-edge AI models to think like domain experts.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for serious chemists. Whether your background is in organic synthesis, inorganic systems, physical chemistry, or computational methods, your knowledge will have a direct and lasting impact on the future of AI in science.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design and develop advanced chemistry problems with real-world scientific relevance across organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
- Solve and critically review complex problem sets to ensure scientific accuracy, rigor, and depth
- Apply your domain expertise to challenge and improve AI model reasoning on graduate-level chemistry concepts
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to refine outputs
- Ensure all deliverables meet high standards of clarity, precision, and scientific integrity
- Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
