Viral Transmission Specialist - Freelance AI Trainer Project - Meridial

Are you a master of viral transmission eager to shape the future of AI? Large‑scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of scientific discovery. With high‑quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world‑class education, advance infectious disease control, and support global public health efforts. That training data begins with you—we need your expertise to help power the next generation of AI.

We’re looking for specialists who live and breathe viral transmission dynamics, epidemiology, host-pathogen interactions, environmental factors, vector biology, infection control, and outbreak investigation. You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like modes of viral spread, reproductive numbers (R₀), superspreading events, viral shedding, aerosol and contact transmission, prevention strategies, and modeling transmission patterns—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.

On a typical day, you will converse with the model on real-world viral transmission scenarios and theoretical questions, verify factual accuracy and logical soundness, capture reproducible error traces, and suggest improvements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.

A PhD in virology, epidemiology, microbiology, public health, or a closely related life‑science field is ideal; peer‑reviewed publications, applied research on viral transmission, or experience in outbreak response and infection prevention signal fit. Clear, metacognitive communication—“showing your work”—is essential.

Ready to turn your viral transmission expertise into the knowledge base for tomorrow’s AI? Apply today and start teaching the model that will teach the world.

We offer a pay range of $8-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.
