Job Description

Gramian Consultancy is a boutique consultancy specializing in IT professional services and engineering talent solutions. With a strong background in software engineering and leadership, we help companies build high-performing teams by matching them with professionals who truly fit their needs.

We are seeking Biologists (PhD or Master's Degree) with strong background in upper-undergraduate Biology or beyond to design rigorous Biology problems used to train and evaluate frontier AI models. This role focuses on creating realistic, exam-quality tasks that are solvable by humans yet challenging enough to expose failure modes in advanced language models.

Responsibilities:

• Design and curate upper-undergraduate and graduate-level Biology problems with clear, fully worked solutions.
• Create challenging, realistic tasks that expose failure modes in frontier AI systems.
• Convert diagram-heavy or multi-part biology questions into self-contained, text-only problems with definitive answers.
• Write rigorous explanations and verify scientific accuracy throughout the problem and solution.
• Evaluate AI-generated responses, diagnose errors, and refine questions to meet difficulty targets.
• Review Biology tasks created by others and improve clarity, correctness, and realism.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to maintain consistent standards across large task batches.

Commitments Required: 8 hours per day with an overlap of 4 hours with PST.
