Role Overview

Apply advanced biology expertise to help train and evaluate next-generation AI systems. You will provide high-quality, real-world scientific input that strengthens how models learn, reason, and perform. Prior AI experience is not required.

Key Responsibilities
  • Critically assess biology-related data, prompts, and content used in AI development workflows, providing detailed feedback.
  • Create, review, and refine scientific scenarios, questions, and explanations based on complex real-world biological problems.
  • Provide expert insight to ensure biological training data and system outputs are accurate, relevant, and sufficiently rigorous.
  • Work with project teams to clarify ambiguities and improve data quality, coverage, and representativeness.
  • Document findings, methods, and rationale to support transparent, reproducible deliverables.
  • Take part in iterative reviews and ongoing evaluations that improve AI capabilities in biology.
  • Share knowledge with interdisciplinary experts to strengthen project outcomes.
Qualifications
  • PhD in biology or a closely related life science discipline.
  • Strong command of core biological principles and the ability to explain complex topics to varied audiences.
  • Exceptional written and verbal scientific communication skills.
  • Experience analyzing scientific data, critically evaluating research, and synthesizing complex subject matter.
  • Ability to work independently and consistently deliver high-quality work within defined project frameworks.
  • Prior interdisciplinary scientific or technology-focused project experience is preferred. AI exposure is beneficial but not required.
  • Excellent attention to detail, consistency, and commitment to scientific rigor and accuracy.
