Qualifications & Requirements

• Master’s or PhD — or a current PhD candidate — in Biology or a directly related field, including molecular or cell biology, genetics, immunology, neuroscience, biochemistry, bioinformatics, or computational biology. The degree must be completed in the U.S., Canada, Europe, the UK, or Australia.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience in the relevant subfield.
• Genuine availability for 30–40+ hours per week across the full 12 weeks.
• Full professional/native-level written and spoken English.
• Strong written communication skills and comfort working independently in a fully remote environment.
• Comfort with ambiguity and strong attention to detail. Ability to orient within a company data package ranging from 100MB to 30GB+ and quickly build an accurate, deep working picture of it, especially when the science sits partly or wholly outside your own specialization.
• Ability to interpret feedback, judge which parts of it are actually correct, and apply it without hand-holding. When stuck, independently look for the answer rather than waiting for one.
• Ability to ramp quickly on unfamiliar work from written material and instructions alone, including where that material is incomplete.
• General familiarity with AI/LLM tools; user-level familiarity is sufficient.
• Hands-on experience using large language models in life sciences professional work, with the judgment to distinguish a well-reasoned answer from a plausible-sounding but incorrect one.
