Molecular Biologist for AI Model Training

Join a leading AI labs cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced models for science.

Role Overview

A leading AI lab is building models that reason across the life sciences, and were assembling a small cohort of molecular biologists to elevate the quality of the training data. The focus is the design of DNA and RNA sequences, the work a molecular biologist does prior to conducting experiments, including primers, plasmids, RNAs, and repair templates.
Key Responsibilities

Design and review DNA/RNA sequences and constructs, primers, plasmids, RNAs, repair templates, and related molecular-biology design tasks drawn from your professional experience.
Author challenging, domain-grounded tasks and write accurate, well-documented solutions that serve as ground truth.
Evaluate AI model outputs against expert-quality solutions and provide clear, written feedback on correctness, rigor, and reasoning.
Collaborate with other subject-matter experts to keep the training data consistent and accurate.
Qualifications

A practicing (or recently practicing) molecular biologist with hands-on experience designing nucleic-acid sequences prior to experiments.
A strong peer-reviewed publication record is a key measure of expertise, work in notable venues such as Nature, bioRxiv, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, and eLife is especially valued. Please include publication links with your application.
Advanced degree (PhD strongly preferred) in molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, synthetic biology, bioengineering, or a related life-science field.
Strong written communication and the ability to justify design choices clearly.
Work Terms

This program is onboarding a small cohort of experts to process approximately 50, 100 design tasks over an initial 2, 3 week period, with strong potential to extend.
Compensation

Hourly rate ranges from $70 to $120.
Eligibility

This position is remote and available to candidates located in the UK.
