About the role
Are you a master of wetlab protocols eager to shape the future of AI? Large‑scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of scientific discovery. With high‑quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world‑class education, optimize laboratory workflows, and enhance reproducibility in life science research. That training data begins with you—we need your expertise to help power the next generation of AI.
We’re looking for specialists who live and breathe wetlab techniques, protocol development, experimental design, sterile technique, reagent preparation, quality control, and biosafety practices. You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like PCR and qPCR protocols, cell culture methods, nucleic acid extraction, microscopy preparations, assay standardization, troubleshooting experiments, and lab safety procedures—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.
On a typical day, you will converse with the model on practical lab scenarios and theoretical protocol questions, verify factual accuracy and logical workflow, capture reproducible error traces, and suggest improvements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.
A PhD in molecular biology, microbiology, biochemistry, or a closely related life‑science field is ideal; peer‑reviewed publications, hands‑on experience in wetlab research, or clinical laboratory practice signal fit. Clear, metacognitive communication—“showing your work”—is essential.
Ready to turn your wetlab protocol expertise into the knowledge base for tomorrow’s AI? Apply today and start teaching the model that will teach the world.
We offer a pay range of $8-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.
