Chemistry Specialist (Masters/PhDs)

Chemistry Specialist (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of chemistry — the years spent mastering reaction mechanisms, molecular modelling, or computational simulations — could directly shape how AI reasons about science?
We're looking for expert chemists to help build and train cutting-edge AI models. You'll design and evaluate complex chemistry problems that push AI to think more rigorously, more accurately, and more like a real scientist. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and specialists who want meaningful, intellectually stimulating work on their own schedule.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design, solve, and review advanced chemistry problems with real-world scientific relevance
Apply your expertise in organic, inorganic, physical, or computational chemistry to construct rigorous, multi-step problem statements
Evaluate AI-generated chemistry reasoning and outputs for scientific accuracy, depth, and clarity
Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to improve AI model performance
Uphold high standards of scientific rigor across all deliverables
Who You Are
Holds a Master's or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
Deep expertise in at least one major chemistry domain — organic, inorganic, physical, or computational
Experience with Python or computational chemistry software (e.g., Gaussian, VASP, or similar tools)
Exceptional written communication skills with strong attention to scientific detail
Able to articulate complex chemistry concepts clearly and precisely
Self-directed and reliable when working independently
Nice to Have
Prior experience with data annotation, data quality review, or AI evaluation workflows
Familiarity with machine learning concepts or AI-assisted scientific tools
Background in academic research, industry R&D, or technical writing
Experience peer-reviewing scientific content or problem sets
Why Join Us
Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams
Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based scientific work
Apply your chemistry expertise in a novel, high-impact domain at the frontier of AI development
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
