Job Description
**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.
