About this role

We're looking for an Organic & Polymer Chemistry Specialist (NMR/Spectroscopy) to serve as a subject matter expert on AI model evaluation projects. You'll design rigorous chemistry prompts and assess model outputs at an expert level. This role helps identify where models break down in scientific reasoning.

Create and evaluate complex chemistry prompts across organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, NMR spectroscopy, and molecular analytical characterization. Apply adversarial prompting strategies to induce and document model reasoning errors. Critically assess the accuracy, depth, and scientific validity of AI-generated responses.

Contribute to quality standards and provide calibrated feedback to the broader team. Work fully remote while permanently based in the US. No visa sponsorship is available for this contract position.

Leverage graduate-level expertise in chemistry to advance AI capabilities. Gain exposure through flexible contributions on AI evaluation projects. Ideal for those with publications or teaching experience in physical sciences.

Requirements

PhD in Chemistry or a closely related field
Graduate-level expertise across multiple areas of Chemistry
Permanently based in the US
Prior hands-on experience in AI data annotation or RLHF
Excellent written communication and analytical skills
