Chemistry Expert (PhD) — AI Safety

**About the role** We're hiring PhD‑level chemists to help make advanced AI models safer. You'll apply your scientific expertise to evaluate and strengthen how these models handle specialized chemistry topics. No prior AI/ML experience is required — we'll train you on the workflow. **What you'll do** - Write expert‑level prompts across specialized chemistry topics. - Evaluate and annotate model responses for scientific accuracy, helpfulness, and appropriate handling of sensitive content. - Apply structured guidelines to classify prompts and conversations. **What we're looking for** - A PhD in chemistry or a closely related field — ongoing or completed (e.g., organic, inorganic, analytical, physical, medicinal, or computational chemistry; chemical engineering; materials science). - Deep familiarity with modern laboratory and computational techniques in your subfield. - Strong scientific reasoning and writing in English. - Sound judgment around chemical safety and the responsible handling of dual‑use information. **Nice to have** - Research or coursework touching on chemical safety/security, synthesis, or hazardous‑materials handling. - Experience reviewing, grading, or red‑teaming technical content. **Project Timeline** - Start date: Immediate - Commitment: Part‑time (15–25 hours/week, with flexibility up to 40 hours/week)
