Remote Biology Specialist (PhD) - 34442
About Turing: Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems. Turing helps customers in two ways: Working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for companies. Role Overview. In this role, you will be working on projects to help fine-tune large language models (like ChatGPT) using your strong analytical and english comprehension skills • The ideal candidate should have a solid foundation in Biology, particularly at the level expected in PhD-level programs. • You should be able to break down complex biological concepts into simple, clear explanations and work efficiently. • The projects will also help you learn how to leverage AI to be a better analyst. This is your chance to future-proof your career in an AI-first world! What does day-to-day look like: • Design and solve challenging Biology problems to probe the limitations of large language models. • Develop high-quality, step-by-step solutions with clear and rigorous reasoning. • Collaborate with LLM researchers to align problem types with evaluation goals, especially in areas where models typically struggle (e.g., conceptual abstraction, multi-step reasoning, and data interpretation). • Contribute to defining new evaluation benchmarks based on Biology curricula spanning to PhD-level topics. Requirements: • Candidates pursuing a Ph.D./Postdoctoral degree in Biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, or a related field are eligible and encouraged to apply. • Good research and analytical skills • Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations. • Creative and lateral thinking abilities. • Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills in a remote setting. • Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting. • Desktop/Laptop set up with a good internet connection. Note: This position is open only to candidates who have completed or are currently pursuing a Ph.D.; applications that do not meet this criterion will not be considered. Preferred Qualifications: • Ability to analyze and solve complex biological problems with a structured approach. • Ability to explain Biology concepts clearly using simple language, visuals, and simulations when needed. Perks of Freelancing With Turing: • Work in a fully remote environment. • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies. • Potential for contract extension based on performance and project needs. Selection Process: • Shortlisted experts may be asked to complete an assessment. • If you clear the assessment, you will be contacted for contract assignments with expected start dates, durations, and end dates. • Some contract assignments require fixed weekly hours, averaging 20/30/40 hours per week for the duration of the contract assignment.
