Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced models for science.

1. Overview

A leading AI lab is building models that reason across the life sciences, and we're assembling a small cohort of molecular biologists to elevate the quality of the training data. The focus is the design of DNA and RNA sequences — the work a molecular biologist does prior to conducting experiments — including primers, plasmids, RNAs, and repair templates.

2. What you'll do

• Design and review DNA/RNA sequences and constructs — primers, plasmids, RNAs, repair templates, and related molecular-biology design tasks drawn from your professional experience.

• Author challenging, domain-grounded tasks and write accurate, well-documented solutions that serve as ground truth.

• Evaluate AI model outputs against expert-quality solutions and provide clear, written feedback on correctness, rigor, and reasoning.

• Collaborate with other subject-matter experts to keep the training data consistent and accurate.

3. Who we're looking for

• A practicing (or recently practicing) molecular biologist with hands-on experience designing nucleic-acid sequences prior to experiments.

• A strong peer-reviewed publication record is a key measure of expertise — work in notable venues such as Nature, bioRxiv, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, and eLife is especially valued. Please include publication links with your application.

• Advanced degree (PhD strongly preferred) in molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, synthetic biology, bioengineering, or a related life-science field.

• Strong written communication and the ability to justify design choices clearly.

4. Scope

• This program is onboarding a small cohort of experts to process approximately 50–100 design tasks over an initial 2–3 week period, with strong potential to extend.

• Fast start — the program is aiming to begin this week.
