Chemistry Expert

AI labs need chemistry checked by people who have run the reaction. A model can balance an equation on paper and describe a mechanism convincingly. Knowing why the yield crashed at scale takes a chemist who has been at the bench.

Work varies by project. Depending on the project you might write problems and scenarios in your subfield with worked answers, review other chemists' work against a checklist, or grade AI answers on mechanisms, spectra and lab practice. Hours, scope and rate are set per project and sent to you in writing before you start.

On a project you write realistic chemistry tasks and the answer an experienced chemist would give, review other experts' work against an acceptance checklist, and evaluate AI answers for wrong mechanisms, bad stoichiometry and unsafe procedures. Reviewers check everything, and you are paid for approved work.

• Write realistic chemistry problems and scenarios with the answer an experienced chemist would give
• Review other experts' work against an acceptance checklist and explain what is wrong and why
• Evaluate AI-generated answers for wrong mechanisms, calculation errors and unsafe procedures
• Document your reasoning and cite the literature or data behind it
• Apply reviewer feedback and revise until the work is accepted
• Work from public or illustrative material only, with nothing proprietary

• A degree in chemistry, chemical biology or a closely related field
• Hands-on laboratory or industry experience in at least one subfield
• Able to explain chemical reasoning in plain written English

• A graduate degree in chemistry
• Experience with spectroscopy or chromatography
• Process or scale-up experience
• Prior work on an AI training or data platform

• You apply and complete the short AI interview
• When a project matches your background we contact you with the scope, hours and rate
• You decide whether to take it, with no obligation either way
• Work you do is reviewed and you are paid for approved work.
