Semiconductor Material Science (Masters/PhDs)

Semiconductor Material Science Expert (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your deep expertise in semiconductor materials or molecular modeling could directly shape how AI reasons about the physical world? We're looking for Material Science specialists—Masters and PhD-level—to tackle advanced scientific problems that help train and refine cutting-edge AI models being developed by the world's leading research labs.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and domain experts who want to apply their knowledge in a high-impact, intellectually stimulating environment. No prior AI experience needed—just rigorous scientific training and a passion for getting things right.

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


What You’ll Do

  • Develop, solve, and critically review advanced material science problems with real-world relevance
  • Apply your expertise in semiconductor materials, molecular modeling, or related domains to design complex, rigorous problem statements
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to improve AI reasoning in technical science
  • Ensure scientific accuracy, clarity, and depth across all deliverables
  • Help push the boundaries of what AI can understand and communicate in the physical sciences

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.
