Biologist

Role Title: Biologist Role Type: Contractor Location: Remote micro1 is engaging Biologists to contribute their cellular and molecular biology expertise to an innovative customer project. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This opportunity places a strong emphasis on both written and verbal communication, as you will help define and assess expert-level scientific content. Professionals with hands-on wet lab and CRISPR experience are especially encouraged to participate. Key Responsibilities: • Lead the design, optimization, and execution of CRISPR-based gene editing experiments. • Develop and implement cloning strategies to generate novel constructs and cell lines. • Perform genotyping, PCR-based assays, and sequence analyses to validate genetic modifications. • Design synthetic DNA/RNA sequences and contribute to screening logic for high-throughput workflows. • Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to translate experimental data into structured formats for AI model training. • Apply molecular biology techniques to study and characterize molecules, organelles, and cellular organization. • Document experimental procedures and results with exceptional clarity and precision, supporting reproducibility and knowledge transfer. Required Skills and Qualifications: • Expertise in CRISPR technology and gene editing workflows. • Extensive hands-on experience with cloning, genotyping, and PCR-based assays. • Strong background in sequence design and molecular screening strategies. • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with keen attention to scientific detail. • Ability to research and analyze molecular and organelle functions within cells. • Demonstrated commitment to data accuracy, workflow optimization, and experimental rigor. • Self-driven and collaborative, with a track record of contributing to high-impact research projects. • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, or a related field. Preferred Qualifications: • Experience with the development or evaluation of rubrics, especially for AI and data annotation workflows. • Familiarity with designing datasets or protocols for AI training and human review processes. • Previous collaboration with interdisciplinary or remote teams on data-driven biology projects.
