Biochemist

Biochemist – AI Data Trainer

About The Role

Your biochemistry expertise is more valuable than ever—not just in the lab, but in shaping the next generation of AI. Alignerr partners with the world’s leading AI research teams to build and refine cutting-edge models, and we need PhD-level Biochemists to help us ensure scientific accuracy.

In this fully remote contract role, you’ll apply your deep knowledge of protein folding, metabolic flux, enzyme kinetics, and molecular genetics—challenging AI systems, flagging their weaknesses, and helping them reason more effectively about life sciences. No AI background required—just rigorous scientific thinking and a passion for precision.

Organization: Alignerr Type: Hourly Contract Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week


What You’ll Do

  • Design Complex Problems: Create advanced biochemistry challenges across nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, and drug-target interactions to rigorously test AI performance.
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions: Develop detailed, step-by-step technical solutions and "golden responses" serving as scientific benchmarks for high-level AI reasoning.
  • Audit AI Outputs: Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for accuracy, safety, and adherence to scientific standards.
  • Refine AI Reasoning: Identify logical errors—such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied enzymatic principles—and provide structured feedback to improve how models think through life science problems.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
