Environmental Science Expert (AI Training)
About The Role
What if your expertise in climate modeling, ecology, or sustainability could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about the world's most pressing environmental challenges? We're looking for Environmental Science experts to develop and evaluate advanced problems that train the next generation of AI models — making them smarter, more rigorous, and more scientifically grounded.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed for Masters and PhD-level scientists who want to apply their deep domain knowledge in a meaningful and high-impact way — without leaving their field.
