Biology Expert or Specialist

About The Role

What if your years of biology training could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about life sciences — from cellular mechanisms to complex biochemical pathways? We're looking for biology experts to help evaluate and improve cutting-edge AI models, ensuring they think with the rigor and precision that real science demands. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and academics. No AI background needed — just deep domain knowledge and a sharp eye for scientific reasoning.

What You'll Do

• Design advanced biology problems and questions to rigorously test AI performance across undergraduate to PhD-level topics
• Develop clear, step-by-step solutions with precise, well-structured scientific reasoning
• Evaluate AI-generated outputs for factual accuracy, logical soundness, and quality of biological reasoning
• Collaborate with researchers to refine benchmarks and improve how AI models handle complex scientific concepts
• Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

• Pursuing or holding a PhD in Biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, or a closely related field
• Strong scientific reasoning skills across advanced biology domains
• Able to communicate complex ideas clearly and provide structured, actionable feedback in writing
• Detail-oriented and methodical — you notice when reasoning doesn't hold up
• No prior AI or tech experience required

Nice to Have

• Experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows
• Background in research, academic writing, or peer review
• Familiarity with AI tools or language models as an end user
• Expertise spanning multiple biology subdisciplines — molecular biology, genetics, physiology, ecology, or beyond

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
• Direct exposure to how large language models are trained and evaluated at the frontier
• Contribute to AI development that shapes how science is understood by technology
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
