Advanced Biology Expert

We are looking for a Biology Reasoning Prompt Expert with experience in biological theory and problem-solving to develop and refine high-quality reasoning questions that evaluate AI models. Your knowledge in biology will ensure the accuracy, rigor, and instructional quality of these test items.

Job Details:

• Question Development: Create well-structured, undergraduate-level biology questions that test reasoning, problem-solving, and conceptual understanding.
• Solution Validation: Solve and verify answers for accuracy and completeness, ensuring questions require logical reasoning rather than rote memorization.
• Difficulty Scaling: Categorize questions by difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard) and refine them to balance complexity and engagement.
• Real-World Application: Design questions that reflect real-world biological applications and avoid trivial or overly theoretical prompts.
• Quality Assurance: Ensure all questions align with biological principles, avoiding ambiguity, factual errors, or unrealistic assumptions.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Master's degree or PhD in Biology, Biochemistry, Genetics, Molecular Biology, Ecology, or a related discipline.
• 2+ years of experience in teaching, research, or applied biology.
• Familiarity with undergraduate-level biology topics, including cell biology, genetics, physiology, ecology, and evolutionary biology.
• Strong writing and critical thinking skills.
• Ability to work independently and meet deadlines.

Application & Onboarding Process:

• You will take a 5-minute AI interview to assess your problem-creation skills.
• If selected, you will be invited to work on the project.
