About the role
Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge research team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced LLMs.
# 1\. Overview
Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge research team and help build foundational AI models for science from the ground up. We're seeking talented Genomics and Cell Biology subject-matter experts (SMEs), including molecular biologists, cell biologists, geneticists and synthetic biologists working at the bench or computationally, to bring recent, hands-on laboratory expertise to the design and evaluation of advanced AI models for biology.
This is a part-time position through Cincinnatus LLC (or an appropriate international entity), with the opportunity to be placed at a leading AI Lab as part of their extended workforce.
# 2\. Key Responsibilities
- Guide research and engineering teams to close knowledge gaps and improve AI model performance in molecular cloning, primer and CRISPR design, functional genomics, sequence analysis and cell-based assays.
- Design challenging, non-searchable biology tasks, benchmarks and training data, and write accurate, well-structured solutions to problems such as construct design, protocol planning and assay troubleshooting.
- Evaluate AI model outputs and step-by-step reasoning on biology tasks, judging the biological feasibility of proposed protocols and computational workflows, and provide clear, written technical feedback.
- Develop specifications, grading rubrics and verification processes for biology data produced by external technical teams, and act as the domain authority on data quality.
- Collaborate with other subject matter experts to ensure consistency and accuracy in training data.
# 3\. Core Qualifications
- PhD in molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, genomics, synthetic biology, biochemistry or a closely related discipline. Strong recent PhD graduates and postdoctoral researchers are encouraged to apply. …
