Biochemist Jobs in London, England, United Kingdom at Alignerr
Title: Biochemist
Company: Alignerr
Location: London, England, United Kingdom
Biochemist – AI Data Trainer
About The Role
We're looking for PhD-level Biochemists to help train and refine the next generation of AI systems. Your scientific expertise will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex biochemistry — from protein folding and enzyme kinetics to metabolic flux and molecular genetics. This is a rare opportunity to apply your deep domain knowledge to one of the most transformative technologies of our time, all from the comfort of your own schedule.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design Advanced Problems — Craft challenging biochemistry problems spanning nucleic acid chemistry, proteomics, drug-target interactions, and more to rigorously stress-test AI performance
- Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical responses that serve as benchmarks for high-level scientific reasoning in AI systems
- Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated biochemical pathways, molecular structures, and mathematical proofs for technical accuracy and adherence to scientific standards
- Identify and Correct Reasoning Errors — Pinpoint logical failures — such as incorrect stoichiometry, flawed stereochemistry, or misapplied biochemical principles — and deliver structured feedback to improve AI reasoning
Who You Are
- Holds a PhD (completed or in final stages) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or a closely related field
- Strong foundational expertise in one or more of: structural biology, enzymology, cellular metabolism, bioinformatics, or proteomics
- Able to communicate highly technical biological and chemical concepts clearly and precisely in writing
- Detail-oriented with a sharp eye for errors in complex chemical equations, molecular diagrams, and experimental logic
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently and asynchronously
- No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
- Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or scientific peer review
- Familiarity with computational biochemistry tools such as PyMOL, AlphaFold, or BLAST
- Background in writing scientific documentation, technical reports, or academic publications
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects in partnership with leading AI research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, anywhere in the world
- Make a meaningful impact on how AI handles scientific reasoning in the life sciences
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global expert community
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
