• Design and curate upper-undergraduate and graduate-level Biology problems with clear, fully worked solutions
• Create challenging, realistic tasks that expose failure modes in frontier AI systems
• Convert diagram-heavy or multi-part biology questions into self-contained, text-only problems with definitive answers
• Write rigorous explanations and verify scientific accuracy throughout the problem and solution
• Evaluate AI-generated responses, diagnose errors, and refine questions to meet difficulty targets
• Review Biology tasks created by others and improve clarity, correctness, and realism
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to maintain consistent standards across large task batches
  

Commitments Required: 8 hours per day with an overlap of 4 hours with PST.
Employment type: Contractor assignment (no medical/paid leave)
