About the Role

What if your deep expertise in atmospheric science could directly shape how AI understands our planet's most complex systems — from climate modeling to ecological dynamics? We're looking for Atmospheric Science experts to develop and evaluate advanced scientific problems that train the next generation of AI models to reason with genuine scientific rigor.

What You'll Do

Develop, solve, and review advanced atmospheric and environmental science problems with real-world relevance
Apply your expertise in climate modeling, ecology, sustainability, or related disciplines to craft complex, high-quality problem statements
Evaluate AI-generated scientific reasoning for accuracy, depth, and methodological soundness
Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to push the boundaries of AI scientific reasoning
Ensure scientific rigor, clarity, and intellectual depth across all deliverables
Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

Master's or PhD in Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, or a closely related field
Strong expertise in at least one of: climate modeling, ecology, atmospheric dynamics, or sustainability science
Proficient in Python or R for research or data analysis
Exceptional written communicator — able to express complex ideas with precision and clarity
Detail-oriented and intellectually rigorous in your approach to scientific problems
Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in an asynchronous environment

Nice to Have

Prior experience with data annotation, data quality evaluation, or AI training workflows
Background in scientific writing, peer review, or academic publishing
Familiarity with AI tools or language model evaluation as an end user
Experience mentoring students or communicating science to non-specialist audiences

Why Join Us
