Job description

Chemistry & Chemical Engineering

We are looking for Chemistry Experts and Chemical Engineers to join our Expert Network and help train and evaluate cutting‑edge AI models using real‑world chemical expertise. If you have the necessary experience, we will assess your skills and invite you to join as a participant, where you will be paid to train and evaluate AI models.

Researchers pay up to $60 per hour. You must be prepared to complete paid tasks requiring one hour of uninterrupted work, though many are shorter.

Qualifications

• Education: a BS, MS, or PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, or a related Physical Science field.
• Professional Experience: experience in laboratory research, industrial chemical processing, pharmaceutical R&D, or academic instruction.
• Technical Mastery: deep knowledge of organic, inorganic, analytical, or physical chemistry principles and reaction mechanisms.
• Safety & Compliance: a thorough understanding of chemical safety protocols (SDS), GHS standards, and regulatory requirements (EPA, REACH, FDA).
• Analytical Precision: the ability to identify errors in complex IUPAC nomenclature, stoichiometry, molecular geometry, and thermodynamic calculations.
• Communication: ability to explain intricate reaction pathways or molecular interactions in clear, technically accurate language.
• PayPal account to receive payment.

Responsibilities

• Evaluate AI‑Generated Chemistry: review model responses to advanced chemistry queries for factual accuracy, structural integrity, and logical reasoning.
• Fact‑Check Reactions & Formulas: validate AI‑generated chemical reactions, balance equations, and ensure proposed synthetic routes are viable and safe.
• Audit Technical Documentation: review model‑generated lab protocols, safety summaries, and spectral interpretations (NMR, IR, Mass Spect) for accuracy.
• Annotate Molecular Data: identify and correct errors in SMILES strings, 2D/3D molecular representations, and property predictions.
• Safety Monitoring: ensure AI outputs do not provide instructions for the synthesis of hazardous, illicit, or restricted substances.
