Principal Clinical Scientist

Alignerr

Principal Clinical Scientist (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your career-long expertise in clinical trial design and regulatory science could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about clinical evidence? We're looking for a Principal Clinical Scientist to bring senior-level rigor to frontier AI research — ensuring the models influencing biomedical science are grounded in real-world regulatory standards.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for experienced clinical scientists who want to contribute to something genuinely new. No AI background required — just deep command of clinical trial methodology and regulatory data interpretation.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Design and review clinical trial protocols used to generate high-quality, regulator-ready datasets for AI training
  • Interpret and audit clinical trial results for accuracy, consistency, and regulatory relevance
  • Evaluate AI-generated clinical analyses for scientific soundness and alignment with regulatory expectations (FDA, EMA, or equivalent)
  • Provide expert feedback that directly shapes how AI models reason about clinical trial data, outcomes, and methodology
  • Help define standards for how cutting-edge AI systems engage with biomedical and clinical research evidence

Who You Are

  • Senior clinical scientist with hands-on experience designing protocols for regulatory submission
  • Deep expertise interpreting clinical data for regulatory agencies such as FDA, EMA, or equivalent bodies
  • Strong command of clinical research methodology, biostatistics, or translational science
  • Naturally rigorous — you hold your work to the standard that real submissions demand
  • Detail-oriented and able to clearly communicate complex scientific reasoning in writing
  • Comfortable working independently and asynchronously

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality review, or evaluation systems
  • Background in pharmacology, epidemiology, or health technology assessment
  • Familiarity with AI tools or data-driven research platforms

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems with real impact on clinical and biomedical research
  • Influence how AI understands, evaluates, and communicates real-world clinical evidence
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, from anywhere
  • Freelance autonomy with the substance of meaningful, expert-level work
  • Collaborate with world-leading AI research teams and labs
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
