About the Role
What if your years of advanced biology training could directly shape how AI understands genetics, biotechnology, and the life sciences? We're looking for Biology experts — Masters and PhD holders — to tackle complex, real-world problems that help train the next generation of cutting-edge AI models.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for scientists who want to do meaningful, intellectually stimulating work on their own schedule. No prior AI experience needed — just deep domain knowledge and a commitment to scientific rigor.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Develop, solve, and critically review advanced biology problems with real-world scientific relevance
- Apply your expertise in genetics, biotechnology, bioinformatics, or related fields to design complex, challenging problem statements
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to strengthen AI model reasoning in the life sciences
- Ensure scientific accuracy, clarity, and depth across all deliverables
- Work independently on task-based assignments fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
- Holds a Master's or PhD in Biology or a closely related field (Genetics, Molecular Biology, Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, etc.)
- Strong expertise in one or more of: genetics, biotechnology, or bioinformatics
- Comfortable coding in Python or R for research or data analysis
- Exceptional written communication skills with strong attention to scientific detail
- Fluent in English — self-motivated and reliable when working independently
Nice to Have
- Prior experience with data annotation, data quality review, or AI evaluation workflows
- Background in scientific writing, peer review, or research publication
- Familiarity with bioinformatics pipelines, genomic data analysis, or computational biology tools
- Experience translating complex scientific concepts for non-specialist audiences
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
- Put your advanced scientific training to use in an entirely new and impactful domain
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
- Contribute to AI development that directly shapes how technology understands the life sciences
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
