Main Responsibilities:

• We are seeking an AI Training Specialist (Chemistry) to create advanced Chemistry problems for training and evaluating frontier AI systems. This role emphasizes precision, formal chemical reasoning, and realistic university-level problem design.
• Main Responsibilities
• Design and curate upper-undergraduate and graduate-level Chemistry problems with complete, step-by-step solutions.
• Develop model-breaking tasks that reflect realistic academic chemistry challenges.
• Customize problem sets to meet strict formatting and specification requirements (SI units, LaTeX, closed-form answers).
• Convert diagram-heavy or multi-part questions into clear, text-only problems with definitive answers.
• Write and verify rigorous solution processes, ensuring internal consistency and correctness.
• Evaluate AI model outputs, identify failure modes, and refine tasks to maintain difficulty standards.
• Review and improve Chemistry problems created by peers for clarity, accuracy, and difficulty.
• Collaborate closely with interdisciplinary teams to maintain quality at scale.

Required Qualifications:

• Master’s degree or PhD in Chemistry or a closely related discipline.
• Strong upper-undergraduate or higher-level Chemistry background.
• Fluency in written scientific English.
• Strong LaTeX skills, including use of mhchem and chemfig.
• Experience with university-level teaching, grading, or analytical research.
• Exceptional attention to detail in stoichiometry, units, constants, and notation.
• Familiarity with AI/LLM training concepts and evaluation workflows.
• Chemistry Domain Expertise
• Organic Chemistry
• Inorganic Chemistry
• Physical Chemistry
• Analytical Chemistry
• Polymer Chemistry & Polymer Physics
• Full command of IUPAC nomenclature and stereochemistry (R/S, E/Z)
• Ability to write text-only problems that replace graphical chemical structures
• Experience with quantitative chemistry problems (equilibria, kinetics, thermodynamics, spectroscopy)
