DESCRIPTION
Role Title: STEM AI Agent Research Specialist Role Type: Contractor Location: Remote micro1 is engaging STEM AI Agent Research Specialists to contribute to a customer's advanced AI training project. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This engagement focuses on reviewing and analyzing historical session traces from local or agentic AI tools used in rigorous STEM research or technical problem-solving. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential, as you will assess, document, and articulate technical processes and insights for project deliverables. Scope of Work • Review, curate, and submit historical session traces from local or agentic AI tools (e.g., Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Codex, Claude for Life Sciences, OpenCode) demonstrating substantive STEM research or technical workflows. • Analyze and validate the technical depth and integrity of AI-assisted problem-solving, ensuring sessions involve multi-step reasoning and authentic human guidance. • Document research methodologies, problem-solving approaches, and points of human intervention within session traces. • Evaluate the effectiveness and limitations of agentic AI tools in STEM research contexts, highlighting areas for improvement or model training. • Produce clear, concise written explanations outlining session processes, outputs, and validation steps. • Provide constructive feedback on the AI’s performance, accuracy, and reasoning based on professional STEM experience. • Important: This role requires hands-on experience using local agentic AI tools to support STEM workflows (e.g., research, coding, analysis, experimentation, or technical problem-solving). Candidates without practical experience using these tools may not be a strong fit for this project. Preferred
REQUIREMENTS
- ▸Advanced academic or professional background in a STEM field (science, technology, engineering, or mathematics).
- ▸First-hand experience using local or agentic AI tools for research or technical projects, beyond web-based chatbots.
- ▸Access to and familiarity with historical session data involving STEM or technical workflows.
- ▸Strong skills in scientific reasoning, technical research, data analysis, code debugging, and research documentation.
- ▸Demonstrated ability to guide, challenge, and validate AI-generated outputs within complex problem-solving scenarios.
- ▸Excellent written and verbal communication skills for clear technical documentation and feedback.
- ▸Experience with AI evaluation, output validation, and iterative research methods is highly valued.
