Sobre a vaga

Opportunity Overview
Handshake is looking for experienced chemists to support AI research through flexible, part-time contract work. This is not a traditional job — you'll draw on your hands-on experience in computational, physical, or theoretical chemistry to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI reason like a practicing chemist.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside your current role.
What You'll Do

  • Use your domain expertise to create expert-level computational chemistry problems and scenarios grounded in real simulation, modeling, and reaction workflows
  • Review and evaluate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, reproducibility, and alignment with how the work is actually done
  • Provide structured written feedback to help improve AI model performance
  • Complete tasks at your own pace with no set schedule or minimum hour requirement

Qualifications
Ideal candidates meet all three of the following:

  • Industry/research experience — first-author publications or a track record of running production-scale simulation/DFT workflows
  • Degree — PhD in Computational, Physical, or Theoretical Chemistry. An MS paired with pharma or materials industry experience also qualifies
  • Sub-domain depth — demonstrated expertise in one of the following areas:
  • Quantum chemistry (Gaussian, ORCA, Psi4, VASP)
  • Molecular dynamics (GROMACS, LAMMPS)
  • Cheminformatics (RDKit) and reaction/thermodynamic modeling

Candidates who meet at least 2 of the 3 qualifications above are also encouraged to apply.
Additional qualifications (not required, but strengthen your application)

  • Proficiency across multiple quantum chemistry, MD, and cheminformatics platforms
  • Experience running production simulation or DFT pipelines in a pharma, materials, or energy research setting

Required for all applicants

  • Must have UK work authorization
  • Strong written communication and attention to detail
  • Ability to explain complex chemistry concepts clearly
  • Ability to work independently in a remote, asynchronous environment
