Chemistry Expert (Masters/PhDs)

Chemistry Expert (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of chemistry could directly shape how AI reasons through the most complex scientific problems in the world? We're looking for chemistry experts — Masters and PhDs — to help train cutting-edge AI models by designing, solving, and evaluating advanced chemistry problems that push the boundaries of what AI can understand.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for working scientists and academics who want to make a meaningful impact beyond the lab — on their own schedule.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design and solve advanced chemistry problems spanning organic, inorganic, physical, and computational chemistry
Develop complex, real-world problem statements that challenge and improve AI reasoning capabilities
Review and evaluate AI-generated chemistry content for scientific accuracy, rigor, and depth
Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to refine model outputs
Ensure all deliverables meet high standards of scientific clarity and correctness
Who You Are
Hold a Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
Deep expertise in at least one core area: organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry
Comfortable working with Python or computational chemistry tools such as Gaussian or VASP
Exceptionally clear written communicator with a sharp eye for scientific detail
Self-directed and reliable when working independently in an asynchronous environment
Fluent in English
Nice to Have
Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or AI evaluation workflows
Familiarity with machine learning concepts or AI-assisted research tools
Background spanning multiple chemistry subfields
Experience writing or reviewing scientific literature or technical assessments
Why Join Us
Work on frontier AI projects alongside the world's leading research labs
Fully remote and asynchronous — work on your own terms, around your existing commitments
Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based scientific work
Apply your expertise to problems that genuinely matter — helping AI think more like a chemist
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
