About This Position

Mercor recruits research scientists (BA/MS/PhD) in biology and adjacent life sciences for AI training and evaluation work: writing and reviewing expert-level questions, grading model reasoning about experimental design and biological mechanisms, and creating domain training data for frontier AI labs. Fully remote, contract-based, with flexible hours that fit around a research schedule; the advertised rate is $60-100 per hour depending on project and qualifications, with PhDs qualifying for the highest-rate projects. Requirements: a degree in biology or a related life science, strong critical reading, and excellent written English. A note from CryoEM Services: task supply on AI-training platforms fluctuates week to week, so treat this as supplemental income rather than a guaranteed paycheck; our full, honest assessment of this kind of work is at cryoemservices.com/guides/ai-training-jobs-for-scientists. Disclosure: the apply link is a referral link that supports this site at no cost to you; your pay is identical either way.
