Job Description

About the role

Microbiologist is a remote review track for evaluating AI outputs across geospatial science reasoning, calculations, and research workflows. Reviewers grade derivations and assumptions, reproduce key results, and document the correct method so the modeling team can train on it.
Geospatial science models live or die on whether their derivations actually hold up under scrutiny. AuraOne uses scientific specialists to grade outputs the way a peer reviewer would — checking assumptions, reproducing key steps, and capturing the right method alongside the wrong one.
Bring scientific and technical domain expertise into AI reasoning, research, and dataset review.

Responsibilities

  • Review AI outputs against current geospatial science methods, conventions, and prior work for Microbiologist assignments.
  • Reproduce or sanity-check key derivations, calculations, or experimental claims.
  • Flag dimensional, methodological, and citation errors with structured severity tags.
  • Capture the corrected reasoning or worked example so the modeling team can train on it.

What you should bring

  • Graduate-level training or equivalent applied experience in geospatial science or a closely related field for Microbiologist work.
  • Hands-on experience publishing, teaching, or advising on the topic at a professional level.
  • Comfort applying multi-page rubrics consistently across long batches.
  • Clear written reasoning that cites methods, papers, or worked examples.
  • Reliable async availability for at least 10 hours per week.

Role signals

Example tasks

  • Adjudicate a disputed answer between two reviewers using textbook methods.
  • Audit a 25-row batch for rubric consistency and report drift to the program lead.

Useful experience

  • PhD, postdoc, or industry research experience in the topic area.
  • Prior work reviewing AI-assisted research tooling and its failure modes.
  • Multilingual fluency for non-English papers and corpora.
