Chemistry Specialist (Masters/PhDs)

About the role

What if your years of chemistry expertise could directly shape how AI reasons through the most complex scientific problems in the world? We're looking for Chemistry Specialists — Masters and PhD-level experts — to design, solve, and evaluate advanced chemistry problems that train cutting-edge AI models to think like scientists. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No AI background needed — just deep domain expertise in chemistry and a rigorous, detail-oriented mind.

Responsibilities

• Design and solve complex, real-world chemistry problems spanning organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
• Review and evaluate AI-generated chemistry content for scientific accuracy, depth, and rigor
• Craft nuanced, multi-step problem statements that challenge AI reasoning at a graduate level
• Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to improve model performance
• Ensure all deliverables meet high standards of scientific clarity and precision
• Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule

Requirements

• Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
• Deep expertise in one or more areas: organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
• Proficient in Python or computational chemistry tools such as Gaussian, VASP, or similar
• Exceptionally detail-oriented — you catch errors others miss and hold yourself to a high scientific standard
• Clear and precise written communicator in English
• Fluent in English and based in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, or New Zealand

Qualifications

• Nice to have: prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or AI evaluation workflows
• Background in academic research, scientific publishing, or technical writing
• Familiarity with AI tools or machine learning concepts
• Experience designing curriculum, problem sets, or assessments at a graduate level
