Overview
Handshake AI hires chemistry PhDs and master's graduates for project-based work that improves how AI models handle chemistry. You will judge AI-generated answers, build domain questions, and flag errors in logic, calculations, or experimental reasoning. The project runs remote with an asynchronous schedule, and you choose your hours. Most contributors join an active project for about 5 to 20 hours each week, and placement depends on current needs, with future project openings possible. This work fits alongside a postdoc, teaching load, lab research, or industry job because it is not a full-time or laboratory position.
What You'll Do8
- Design chemistry questions that test advanced concepts, experimental methodology, and data interpretation.
- Review AI-generated responses for accuracy, logical consistency, and scientific rigor.
- Flag mistakes in chemical reasoning, calculations, or experimental design.
- Write feedback that explains why an answer is wrong and how it can improve.
- Compare responses across advanced chemistry topics when projects need it.
- Apply your graduate training to judge technical problem-solving and scientific claims.
- Follow project guidelines for question format, answer review, and rating criteria.
- Set your own schedule while a project is active and submit completed reviews on time.
Requirements6
- Hold or pursue a master's, PhD, or postdoc in chemistry or a related discipline.
- Advanced knowledge of chemistry concepts, experimental methods, and data interpretation.
- Ability to evaluate scientific reasoning and technical problem-solving.
- No prior AI or technical experience needed.
- F-1 students with CPT or OPT may qualify for some projects.
- Handshake AI does not support STEM OPT.
Who Should Apply
The role suits a graduate chemist who wants flexible, part-time work that uses advanced training without lab duties. You may be a master's student, PhD candidate, postdoc, or recent graduate in chemistry or a related field. Strong candidates can explain experimental design, data interpretation, and scientific reasoning in clear written form. The role is less suitable for someone who needs full-time hours, guaranteed project placement, or a permanent industry position. Applications often score low when the candidate lacks graduate-level chemistry depth or cannot document work authorization for CPT or OPT. Handshake AI does not support STEM OPT, and some school CPT course rules may not match this project.
Salary Insight
The project pays $75 per hour. That rate sits at the upper end of project-based AI evaluation work and matches the advanced chemistry background Handshake AI seeks. Because there is no minimum hour requirement, your weekly earnings depend on how many active project hours you take on.
