Chemistry Expert or Specialist

Chemistry benchmarks

Help researchers assess AI scientific reasoning across chemistry topics ranging from undergraduate fundamentals to doctoral research. Work combines original problem development, solution writing, and expert review.

• Design advanced questions in organic chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, thermodynamics, and related areas.
• Write detailed solutions that demonstrate sound logic and expert reasoning at each step.
• Check generated answers for scientific correctness, reasoning depth, and clear explanations.
• Identify missing information, mistakes, and weak arguments, then give specific improvement feedback.
• Collaborate with researchers to develop and refine benchmark collections.

Required expertise

You must be pursuing or already hold a PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, or a closely related subject. Strong advanced problem-solving ability and reasoning from first principles are essential.

You should communicate difficult science precisely and recognize flawed, incomplete, or imprecise reasoning. The role requires careful, dependable independent work; no previous AI or machine learning experience is needed.

Useful background

Annotation, data quality, and evaluation systems experience is welcome. Academic research, curriculum development, scientific writing, language model evaluation, and expertise across several chemistry specialties are also useful.

Terms

This fully remote hourly contract offers flexible asynchronous work for 10 to 40 hours per week. It provides exposure to model training and assessment alongside AI research teams, with possible ongoing work or contract extension.
