Remote work

Descrizione del lavoro

Astrix is seeking an experienced Computational Scientist with mass spectrometry and omics expertise to advance the scientific reliability of AI-powered analyses in a remote role. You will design evaluation tasks, curate datasets, and assess AI-generated interpretations, working with engineering and research teams to set rigorous standards for AI reasoning across proteomics and related omics.

Strong publication record and PhD in a related field are required, along with hands-on MS experience and

Competenze

• PhD in proteomics, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, or related field.
• Hands-on mass spectrometry experience with data analysis.
• Strong knowledge of experimental design, statistics, analytical quality control, and biological interpretation.
• Ability to identify artifacts and justify evidence-based conclusions.
• Experience with AI assistants or AI-enabled tools (Claude, Cursor).

Mansioni

• Develop scientific benchmarks: Create realistic analytical challenges and expert reference answers that test AI’s ability to interpret complex experimental data.
• Evaluate scientific validity: Distinguish genuine biological findings from technical artifacts, contamination, batch effects, and processing errors.
• Adjudicate ambiguous results: Assess evidence, identify analytical limitations, and recommend follow-up experiments where needed.
• Improve AI performance: Analyze model reasoning, identify failure modes, and evaluate the accuracy, scientific rigor, and calibration of confidence.
• Collaborate across disciplines: Work with engineers and scientists to translate domain expertise into scalable evaluation frameworks and workflows.
• Curate research datasets: Support benchmark development across proteomics, lipidomics, metabolomics, and relevant complementary biological data types.
