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 Materials Science specialists — Masters and PhD holders — to tackle advanced scientific problems that push AI to think more rigorously, accurately, and usefully.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed for researchers and domain experts who want to do meaningful, intellectually stimulating work on their own schedule. No prior AI experience needed — your scientific knowledge is what matters.

  • 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 scientific relevance
  • Apply deep expertise in semiconductor materials, molecular modeling, or related domains to design complex, meaningful problem statements
  • Evaluate AI-generated scientific content for accuracy, rigor, and depth
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to strengthen AI model reasoning
  • Ensure all deliverables meet high standards of scientific clarity and correctness
  • Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule

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.
