• Develop cloning strategies that produce new constructs and cell lines.
• Perform genotyping, PCR-based assays, and sequence analysis to validate genetic modifications.
• Design synthetic DNA and RNA sequences and contribute screening logic for high-throughput workflows.
• Apply molecular biology methods to study molecules, organelles, and cellular organization.
• Translate experimental data into structured formats for AI model training in collaboration with interdisciplinary teams.
• Document procedures and results clearly and accurately to support reproducibility and knowledge transfer.

Qualifications

• Bachelor''s degree or higher in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, or a related field.
• Expertise in CRISPR technology and gene-editing workflows.
• Extensive practical experience with cloning, genotyping, and PCR-based assays.
• Strong knowledge of sequence design and molecular screening strategies.
• Ability to research and analyze molecular and organelle functions within cells.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills and close attention to scientific detail.
• Demonstrated commitment to data accuracy, workflow optimization, and experimental rigor.
• Self-directed, collaborative approach with experience contributing to high-impact research projects.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing or evaluating rubrics, particularly for AI or data-annotation workflows.
• Familiarity with designing datasets or protocols for AI training and human-review processes.
• Experience collaborating with interdisciplinary or remote teams on data-driven biology projects.

Work Terms

• Remote independent contractor engagement.

Compensation

• $70 to $90 per hour.
