Key Responsibilities

• Create expert-level Finnish prompts across specialized scientific topics.
• Evaluate and annotate model responses for scientific accuracy, usefulness, and appropriate treatment of sensitive content.
• Use structured guidelines to classify prompts and conversations.
• Apply scientific expertise to improve model handling of specialized technical topics in Finnish.

Qualifications

• PhD in chemistry, biology, or a closely related field, either in progress or completed.
• Native or near-native Finnish fluency and business-level written English.
• Scientific depth to develop prompts involving chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear subject areas.
• Strong familiarity with modern laboratory and computational methods relevant to your specialty.
• Sound judgment regarding scientific safety and responsible handling of dual-use information.

Preferred Background

• Based in Finland or elsewhere in Western Europe, though applicants located outside the region are welcome.
• Chemistry experience involving radiochemistry, nuclear chemistry, energetic materials, or radiation physics.
• Deep specialization in an area such as organic or inorganic synthesis, molecular biology, microbiology, virology, or genetics.
• Research or coursework in chemical safety and security, biosafety and biosecurity, or hazardous-materials handling.
• Experience reviewing, grading, or red-teaming technical content.

Work Terms

• Remote, hourly engagement.
