Geologists and earth scientists to build the geoscience and climate scenarios frontier AI labs use to test model judgment. AfterQuery builds the expert evaluation data that frontier AI labs use to measure and improve their models. We're hiring geologists and earth scientists as contractors to author and grade the geoscience and climate scenarios those evaluations run on. What you'll actually do

Author realistic geoscience scenarios from field observation through interpretation, the kind a working geologist actually reasons through. Write reference answers with the geological reasoning behind each interpretation, processes and timescales weighed. Grade model output on geoscience and climate questions for physical accuracy and appropriate uncertainty. Flag explanations that read fluent but get the earth science wrong, the misses only a trained geoscientist would catch.

Who this is for

Geologists and earth scientists with an advanced degree or equivalent qualified experience. Researchers, industry geologists, and consultants across sedimentology, hydrology, geophysics, volcanology,



and climate science. Scientists who reason from process and evidence, whether the data comes from an outcrop, a core, or a model. People with strong written English who can turn scientific judgment into clear, teachable reasoning.
