Remote | Biology Expert (PhD) — $73.29/hr

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for PhD-level biologists interested in contributing to the development and evaluation of advanced AI systems. This role supports collaborations with leading AI teams focused on improving how conversational AI models reason about biological systems, experimental findings, and life sciences concepts across multiple levels of biological organization. Experts will evaluate AI-generated responses related to biological topics, ensuring scientific accuracy, mechanistic reasoning, and clear explanations aligned with modern life sciences research. Key Responsibilities Write and refine prompts that guide AI model behavior in life sciences contexts Evaluate AI-generated responses to biology-related questions for scientific accuracy and reasoning quality Verify biological claims using domain expertise and authoritative public sources Annotate responses by identifying strengths, inaccuracies, and conceptual gaps Assess clarity, structure, and appropriateness of explanations for different audiences Apply structured evaluation frameworks and benchmarking standards Ensure responses align with expected scientific rigor and conversational guidelines Ideal Profile Strong candidates will have: PhD in Biology or a closely related life sciences discipline Expertise in one or more of the following areas: Molecular & Cellular Biology Organismal Physiology & Development Microbiology, Immunology & Pathobiology Ecology, Evolution & Environmental Biology Additional qualities include: Experience using large language models (LLMs) Excellent scientific writing and explanation skills Strong analytical reasoning and attention to detail Ability to identify subtle conceptual or mechanistic errors in biological explanations Nice-to-Have Experience Experience with RLHF, model evaluation, or AI data annotation Teaching or mentoring experience in life sciences Familiarity with evaluation rubrics or structured review frameworks Experience reviewing or editing scientific or academic writing What Success Looks Like Identifying inaccuracies or weak mechanistic explanations in biology-related model outputs Improving the rigor, clarity, and correctness of AI explanations Producing consistent evaluation artifacts that strengthen model performance Helping ensure AI systems provide reliable life sciences knowledge Why This Opportunity Contribute directly to improving how AI systems understand biological science Apply deep life sciences expertise to real-world AI development Work with cutting-edge AI labs and research teams Flexible remote work with competitive compensation Contract Details Independent contractor role Fully remote with flexible scheduling Compensation: $73.29/hr Weekly payments via Stripe or Wise Projects may extend depending on performance and project needs About the Platform This opportunity is available through a leading AI-driven work platform.
