Remote Chemistry Expert - AI Trainer

Overview

Mercor is collaborating with a leading AI research lab to partner with experienced chemistry experts on advanced model development initiatives. The project focuses on improving AI systems’ understanding of chemical principles, reactions, and real-world laboratory reasoning. Contributors will apply their subject‑matter expertise to help evaluate, refine, and generate high‑quality chemistry content used in frontier AI research.

• Develop realistic, domain‑appropriate chemistry tasks spanning organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, or computational chemistry.
• Review AI‑generated answers for conceptual soundness, accuracy, and adherence to accepted chemical theory.
• Author original chemistry questions, scenarios, or datasets across relevant subfields.
• Flag incorrect logic, flawed assumptions, or computational errors in model outputs.
• Provide structured feedback to support iterative model improvement.

• Advanced degree (PhD or MS) in Chemistry or a closely related field.
• 3+ years of experience with research, teaching, or applied chemistry in academic or industrial settings.
• Excellent written communication and analytical reasoning skills.
• Strong attention to scientific detail.

• Submit a resume or professional profile highlighting chemistry expertise and related research work if pertinent.
• Follow‑up and next steps are typically shared within a few days.
