$75 - $90 per hour

Alignerr

Biology Expert (Masters/PhDs)

$75-90/hr Remote Freelance STEM

About the Role

What if your years of biology training — the late nights in the lab, the deep dives into genetics and molecular mechanisms, the hard-won expertise — could directly shape how AI reasons about life science for millions of people?

We're looking for Biology Masters and PhD holders to help build and refine cutting-edge AI models. You'll design and solve advanced biology problems, pressure-test AI reasoning against real scientific standards, and ensure that the next generation of AI thinks rigorously about the life sciences.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for scientists who want to do meaningful, intellectually engaging work — on their own schedule.

Organization: Alignerr

Type: Hourly Contract

Location: Remote

Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do
  • Develop, solve, and critically review advanced biology problems with real-world scientific relevance
  • Apply deep expertise in genetics, biotechnology, bioinformatics, or related disciplines to design challenging problem statements
  • Evaluate AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, rigor, and clarity
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and other domain experts to enhance AI model reasoning
  • Ensure depth, precision, and scientific integrity across all deliverables
  • Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • Hold a Master's or PhD in Biology or a closely related field (Genetics, Molecular Biology, Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, etc.)
  • Possess deep, demonstrable expertise in at least one of: genetics, biotechnology, or bioinformatics
  • Comfortable coding in Python or R for research or data analysis purposes
  • Exceptionally clear communicator — both in written explanations and scientific reasoning
  • Detail-oriented and methodical, with high standards for accuracy and rigor
  • Fluent in English and currently based in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, or New Zealand
Nice to Have
  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality review, or AI evaluation workflows
  • Background in computational biology, systems biology, or genomics
  • Experience writing or reviewing scientific literature, grant applications, or technical documentation
  • Familiarity with AI tools or large language model outputs as an end user
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
  • Put your advanced degree to work on problems that matter — shaping how AI understands biology
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
