Chemistry Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)

About The Role

We're looking for chemistry experts to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models being developed by the world's leading research labs. Your scientific knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex chemistry — from undergraduate fundamentals to advanced graduate-level topics.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to the frontier of AI development using skills you've already built — no prior AI experience needed.

Organization: Alignerr Type: Hourly Contract Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

Design challenging, nuanced chemistry problems to rigorously test AI performance across domains such as chemical engineering, biochemistry, organic chemistry, and more Develop clear, methodical solutions with step-by-step reasoning that serve as gold-standard references Evaluate AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, logical coherence, and depth of reasoning Collaborate with researchers to build and refine benchmarks spanning undergraduate through Master's-level chemistry Provide structured, actionable feedback that directly improves AI model quality

Who You Are

Currently pursuing or have completed a Master's degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, or a closely related field Strong analytical and problem-solving skills across advanced chemistry domains Able to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and precisely in writing Detail-oriented with a commitment to rigor and accuracy Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on an asynchronous schedule No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

Experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or evaluation systems Familiarity with AI language models or scientific benchmarking Background spanning multiple chemistry subdisciplines
