Chemistry Expert

Anyone AI; Ottawa; Remote; CAD 154,000 - 289,000; Full time

Job summary

Anyone AI is seeking Chemistry Experts to develop challenging tasks that assess AI agents' ability to perform chemical reasoning—mechanisms, synthesis routes, and analytical interpretation. You will create original tasks and reference solutions, then evaluate frontier models using reaction schemes, spectra, and analytical data.

Remote engagement with flexible hours and compensation ranging from US$80–US$150 per hour, depending on expertise and project requirements.

Qualifications

• Degree in chemistry or a related field, or equivalent lab expertise.
• Graduate-level chemistry background or equivalent hands-on laboratory experience.
• Comfortable across organic, inorganic, or physical chemistry.
• Experience interpreting spectra and evaluating synthetic routes.
• Fluent English, with strong written communication skills.

Responsibilities

• Design tasks on reaction mechanisms, synthesis routes, and analytical/spectral interpretation.
• Develop reference solutions that account for reaction conditions and lab safety.
• Evaluate output for impossible mechanisms, unsafe procedures, and misread spectra.
• Identify chemically unsound reasoning and overlooked conditions.
• Define criteria for chemical correctness, feasibility, and safety.
