Bioinformatics Scientist (Remote | $90–$110/hr)

Bioinformatics Expert Position: Bioinformatics Expert Type: Hourly Contract Compensation: $90–$110/hour Location: Remote About the Opportunity We’re seeking experienced bioinformatics professionals to create scientific data-analysis tasks for AI model training. You’ll work with real biological datasets, develop reproducible computational analyses, and evaluate results to ensure scientific accuracy and clear interpretation. Key Responsibilities • Complete realistic, multi-step bioinformatics data-analysis tasks. • Create original scientific questions with exact, objectively verifiable answers. • Select and anonymize datasets from public repositories or eligible private research data. • Use scientific software, code, and command-line tools to produce reproducible analyses. • Develop Jupyter validation notebooks in Python or R to reproduce correct answers. • Interpret findings in biological or translational contexts, documenting assumptions, uncertainty, and conclusions. • Deliver structured outputs and clear scientific explanations. Required Qualifications • Master’s degree, PhD, or equivalent research experience in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genomics, Statistical Genetics, Quantitative Biology, or a related field. • Hands-on experience analyzing sequencing and omics data, such as RNA-seq, WGS/WES, variant calling, metagenomics, or proteomics. • Familiarity with tools such as samtools, bcftools, bedtools, BWA, Bowtie2, or BLAST. • Programming experience with Python (pandas, Biopython, pysam) or R/Bioconductor (DESeq2, edgeR, limma, GenomicRanges). • Ability to create and run Jupyter notebooks that reproduce analytical results. • Strong scientific writing and communication skills. Preferred Qualifications • Access to unpublished or private datasets that you have permission to share. • Specialized expertise in a niche area, such as non-model organisms, unusual assays, or advanced genomic interpretation. • Experience designing reproducible computational workflows and validating scientific results. Compensation • $90–$110 per hour. • Remote hourly contract. • Flexible work involving scientific analysis and AI training data development. Application Process • Submit your application and relevant academic or research experience. • Describe your expertise in sequencing data, omics analysis, and bioinformatics tools. • Complete any required technical screening or assessment. • Begin contributing datasets, reproducible analyses, and validated scientific tasks after selection and onboarding.
