Are you a master of antibiotic resistance eager to shape the future of AI? Large‑scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of scientific discovery. With high‑quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world‑class education, keep pace with cutting‑edge research, and streamline lab work for scientists everywhere. That training data begins with you—we need your expertise to help power the next generation of AI.
We’re looking for specialists who live and breathe antibiotic resistance, microbial genetics, bacterial pathogenesis, horizontal gene transfer, efflux pumps, resistance mechanisms, antimicrobial stewardship, and clinical microbiology. You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like resistance gene detection, mechanisms of action, multidrug resistance, culture and sensitivity testing, PCR and qPCR methodologies, diagnostics, biosafety procedures, and resistance trends in public health—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.
On a typical day, you will converse with the model on lab scenarios and theoretical microbiology questions, verify factual accuracy and logical soundness, capture reproducible error traces, and suggest improvements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.
A PhD in microbiology, molecular biology, or a closely related life‑science field is ideal; peer‑reviewed publications, wet‑lab or clinical experience with antimicrobial resistance, or public health surveillance projects signal fit. Clear, metacognitive communication—“showing your work”—is essential.
Ready to turn your antibiotic resistance expertise into the knowledge base for tomorrow’s AI? Apply today and start teaching the model that will teach the world.
We offer a pay range of $8-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.
