About the Role
What if your years of biology training could directly shape how AI reasons about genetics, disease, and life itself? We're looking for Biology experts — Masters and PhD holders — to tackle advanced scientific problems that help train the next generation of AI models.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and scientists who want to put their deep expertise to work in a new and meaningful way. No prior AI experience needed — just rigorous scientific knowledge and a sharp analytical mind.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Develop, solve, and critically evaluate advanced biology problems with real-world scientific relevance
- Apply your expertise in genetics, biotechnology, bioinformatics, or related fields to design complex, nuanced problem sets
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to sharpen AI model reasoning
- Ensure scientific rigor, precision, and clarity across all deliverables
- Use Python or R where relevant to support problem design or analysis
Who You Are
- Holder of a Master's or PhD in Biology or a closely related discipline — Genetics, Molecular Biology, Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, or equivalent
- Deep expertise in at least one of: genetics, biotechnology, or bioinformatics
- Comfortable coding in Python or R for research or analytical tasks
- Exceptionally clear written communicator who can explain complex concepts with precision
- Detail-oriented, self-motivated, and reliable when working independently
- Fluent in English
Nice to Have
- Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation systems
- Background in academic research, scientific publishing, or lab-based work
- Exposure to computational biology or machine learning applications in life sciences
- Experience reviewing or peer-editing scientific content
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
- Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and reasons about biology
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
