Atmospheric Science Expert (Masters/PhDs)

Atmospheric Science Expert (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your deep knowledge of atmospheric science — climate systems, weather modeling, ecological dynamics — could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about our planet?

We're looking for Atmospheric Science experts with advanced degrees to develop and evaluate complex, real-world scientific problems that train cutting-edge AI models. Your expertise won't just sit in a research paper — it will be embedded into AI systems used by millions.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers, academics, and working scientists who want meaningful, well-compensated work on their own schedule.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

• Develop, solve, and review advanced atmospheric and environmental science problems grounded in real-world relevance
• Apply your expertise in climate modeling, ecology, atmospheric dynamics, or sustainability to design rigorous, complex problem statements
• Evaluate AI-generated scientific reasoning for accuracy, depth, and scientific integrity
• Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to push the boundaries of AI reasoning in your field
• Ensure scientific rigor, clarity, and precision across all deliverables

Who You Are

• Holds a Master's or PhD in Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, Climate Science, or a closely related field
• Proficient in Python or R for research, data analysis, or scientific modeling
• Deep expertise in one or more of: climate modeling, atmospheric physics, ecology, or sustainability science
• Exceptional written communicator — you can translate complex science into clear, precise language
• Detail-oriented and self-motivated when working independently
• Fluent in English

Nice to Have

• Prior experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or AI training workflows
• Background in scientific writing, peer review, or curriculum development
• Familiarity with AI tools or large language model evaluation
• Experience designing problem sets, research questions, or exam content

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading AI research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based scientific work
• Make a direct, lasting impact on how AI understands science and the natural world
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
