About the role

We create high-quality STEM training data for frontier AI models. Our data is used directly in training and evaluation pipelines at leading AI labs to improve model reasoning in technical domains.

We are looking for experts in Genetics to design rigorous, deterministic problems that are genuinely challenging for state-of-the-art AI systems. Each problem must have exactly one verifiable correct answer and be submitted together with a complete, verified solution.

What you’ll do

• Design advanced genetics problems for frontier AI training and evaluation

• Create deterministic problems with exactly one correct answer

• Write complete, verified solutions and clearly document the reasoning process

• Develop problems involving Mendelian genetics, population genetics, molecular genetics, quantitative genetics, genomics, or genetic variation

• Create problems requiring multi-step interpretation of inheritance patterns, experimental data, pedigrees, or genomic information

• Where relevant, use Python, R, statistical software, or genetics-specific computational tools to validate solutions

• Ensure all outputs are technically precise, reproducible, and well-written in English

What we’re looking for

• Master’s or PhD in Genetics, Genomics, Molecular Biology, Computational Biology, or a closely related field

• Strong research or industry experience involving genetics, genomics, molecular biology, or quantitative genetic analysis

• Strong quantitative reasoning and data-analysis skills

• Solid understanding of inheritance, genetic variation, experimental design, probability, and statistical genetics

• Ability to design original, difficult problems that mirror real genetics research workflows

• Excellent attention to detail and technical writing skills in English

Nice to have

• Experience with R, Python, PLINK, GATK, bcftools, Bioconductor, or other genomics and genetics tools

• Background in population genetics, GWAS, quantitative genetics, functional genomics, or molecular genetics

• Experience designing scientific assessments, analyzing research datasets, or evaluating AI reasoning in life-science domains
