Chemistry Expert (AI Training)
About The Role
What if your years of advanced chemistry training could directly shape how AI reasons through the most complex scientific problems on earth? We're looking for Chemistry Masters and PhDs to design, solve, and evaluate advanced chemistry problems that teach AI to think like a real scientist.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for working researchers, academics, and industry chemists. No AI background needed — just deep domain expertise and a commitment to scientific rigor.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design and develop complex, real-world chemistry problems spanning organic, inorganic, physical, and computational chemistry
Solve and review advanced problem sets with scientific precision, depth, and clarity
Evaluate AI-generated chemistry reasoning and identify gaps, errors, or oversimplifications
Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to improve model performance
Ensure scientific rigor and accuracy across all deliverables — from problem design to written explanations
Who You Are
Holds a Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related scientific field
Deep expertise in one or more of the following: organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
Comfortable writing clearly and precisely — you can explain complex chemistry to a technically literate audience
Detail-oriented, methodical, and able to work independently without close supervision
Proficient in Python or experienced with computational chemistry software (e.g., Gaussian, VASP)
Fluent in English
Nice to Have
Prior experience with data annotation, scientific evaluation, or AI training workflows
Background in research, academic instruction, or technical writing
Familiarity with quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, or cheminformatics tools
Experience reviewing or grading complex chemistry problems at a graduate level
Why Join Us
Work at the frontier of AI — your expertise directly shapes how next-generation models understand science
Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you, on your own schedule
Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
Collaborate with world-leading AI research labs and domain experts across disciplines
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
