The work

You will create difficult, realistic tasks that test advanced AI systems on computational life-science problems. You will also assess whether model-generated technical work is correct, scientifically sound, reproducible, and free of serious errors.

  • Create computational life-science tasks, clear instructions, reproducible environments, reference solutions, and objective evaluation criteria.
  • Review model-generated code, analyses, models, experiments, and other technical deliverables.
  • Find invalid biological assumptions, methodological errors, data leakage, statistical problems, and reproducibility failures.
  • Set standards for deciding whether technical solutions are correct and scientifically sound.

Requirements

This is a remote, part-time contractor role for an intermediate-level contributor. The work requires prior experience training, evaluating, benchmarking, or improving AI systems on scientific or technical tasks.

  • Schedule: At least 15 hours per week and less than 20 hours per week.
  • Language: Fluent in English.
  • Core skills: Strong practical Python proficiency and deep expertise in at least one relevant area, such as biology, computational biology, bioinformatics, medicine and health, biomedical science, neuroscience, genomics, ecology, or evolution.
  • Experience: Hands-on work with computational modeling, simulation, bioinformatics, biomedical analysis, statistics, or reproducible research.
  • AI training background: Paid experience training, evaluating, benchmarking, or improving AI systems on scientific or technical tasks.
  • Experience: Mid-Senior level
  • Skills: Biology, Mathematics, Ecology, Materials Sciences, Earth, Climate and Oceans, Statistics, AI Training, Programming Skills

Helpful background

Experience building AI-training tasks, reference answers, rubrics, graders, or benchmark problems is useful. Experience reviewing technical submissions or conducting long-horizon or agentic AI evaluations is also relevant.

  • Scientific tools such as NumPy, SciPy, pandas, Biopython, PyTorch, JAX, or comparable software.
  • Public computational publications, research code, bioinformatics pipelines, open-source scientific software, datasets, models, notebooks, or technical projects.
  • Experience applying programming judgment to scientific analyses and checking whether results can be reproduced.
