Expert Contributor - Chemistry

Expert Contributor - ChemistryTask-Based Independent Contractor OpportunityOverviewWe're looking for Chemistry experts who can design and solve challenging, real-world reasoning tasks that push the boundaries of advanced AI systems. You'll create high-quality chemistry problems, develop rigorous solutions, and help pinpoint exactly where models fall short in scientific reasoning. The focus here is on graduate-level difficulty, scientific precision, and reproducible evaluation. If you love crafting tricky problems and have a sharp eye for where reasoning breaks down, this one's for you.Key ResponsibilitiesDesign graduate-level, multi-step analytical chemistry problems with precise, fully worked solutions.Evaluate AI-generated scientific reasoning and identify where models fail or produce incorrect logic.Provide rigorous, reproducible solution paths and grading rubrics for each problem.Review and critique competing solution approaches across multi-turn evaluation sessions.Collaborate asynchronously with the project team on problem calibration and quality assurance.Ensure all problems meet standards for scientific accuracy, clarity, and appropriate difficulty.Required QualificationsDeep fluency in Chemistry, with the ability to create graduate-level, multi-step analytical problems and produce precise, fully worked solutions.Strong review instincts with the ability to identify subtle scientific errors and evaluate competing solution paths.Master's or PhD candidate, or graduate, in Chemistry or a closely related discipline.2+ years of experience in academic research, university-level instruction, or advanced scientific problem design.Preferred QualificationsBackground in one or more of: academic research, university-level instruction, advanced problem writing, laboratory science, or technical scientific communication.Familiarity with grading rubrics, olympiad- or exam-style question design, or evaluating AI-generated scientific reasoning.Published research in a peer-reviewed chemistry journal.Experience with computational chemistry tools or cheminformatics platforms.
