Master’s or PhD in chemistry
(or a related field), or are an
Olympiad participant or medalist
in the IChO (preferred) or equivalent competitions (AsChO, EChO, EUSO, IJSO, NChO, UKChO, USNCO, CCO, INChO, RChO and MChO).
Other qualifications :
Deep understanding of your domain’s
core theoretical and experimental concepts
Ability to
articulate reasoning and derivations
clearly in written form - Strong ability to evaluate the rigor and complexity of chemistry problems - Rigorous attention to detail in verifying solutions ##
4\. More About the Opportunity
Expected commitment : 20 hours / week minimum; up to 40 hours / week available - Approximate project length : ~2 months, with extension potential - Rolling start dates; setup typically within 1–2 days of approval ##
5\. Compensation & Contract Terms
$60-80 / hr dependent on experience + performance - Open to contributors worldwide (English proficiency required) - Independent contractor engagement - Payments issued weekly via Stripe Connect ##
6\. Application Process
Submit your resume or CV highlighting chemistry background and relevant achievements - Complete a brief interview (20–30 minutes) - Submit a short form detailing your experience writing problems and competing in chemistry competitions - Selected applicants will be contacted within a few days with next steps ##
