How much do remote biology research jobs pay per hour?

As of Sep 13, 2026, the average hourly pay for remote biology research in the United States is $26.92, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $18.03 and $39.66 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is remote biology research?

A Remote Biology Research job involves conducting biological studies, data analysis, or literature reviews from a remote location rather than a traditional laboratory or office. Researchers may work on projects related to ecology, genetics, microbiology, or bioinformatics, using digital tools, simulations, and databases. These roles often require strong analytical skills, proficiency with scientific software, and effective communication for collaboration with teams worldwide.

What skills and qualifications are needed for remote biology research?

To thrive in Remote Biology Research, you need a solid background in biological sciences, experience with data analysis, and a relevant academic degree such as a bachelor's or master's in biology or a related field. Familiarity with statistical software (e.g., R, Python), virtual lab platforms, and project management tools is often required, and certifications in bioinformatics or laboratory techniques are advantageous. Strong self-motivation, attention to detail, and effective remote communication skills are vital for excelling in this independent and collaborative work environment. These abilities ensure accurate data analysis, smooth virtual teamwork, and the successful completion of research objectives from a remote setting.

What challenges do remote biology researchers face, and how can they be addressed?

Remote biology researchers often encounter challenges such as limited access to physical laboratory resources, difficulties in coordinating experiments across locations, and maintaining effective communication within remote teams. These obstacles can be overcome by leveraging advanced data-sharing platforms, virtual lab simulations, and scheduling regular video meetings to facilitate collaboration and share results. It’s also helpful to establish clear protocols and documentation standards so team members can seamlessly contribute to ongoing projects. Many organizations provide additional training and technical support to ensure remote researchers remain productive and well-connected to their colleagues.

Key responsibilities

  • Identify real cancer-biology datasets and turn them into rigorous, deterministically-graded tasks.

  • Establish defensible reference analyses and scoring criteria across conclusion types and benchmark measures.

  • Test whether AI agents can handle experimental variability, incomplete data, conflicting evidence, and mechanism-driven tradeoffs in cancer biology workflows.

Job description

AI Biologist - Cancer Biology (Applications)
Latch builds rigorous, scientific benchmarks (benchmarks.bio) for AI agents across biology. We work with frontier labs and pharma to measure whether agents can handle real biological workflows; the messy, multi-layer reasoning that matters in the field.
About the Role
Our work in Cancer Biology means measuring whether an agent can take a tumor case from raw molecular data to a real clinical decision. You'll identify real cancer-biology datasets and turn them into rigorous, deterministically-graded tasks.
Our benchmarks are agentic and cross-domain. Each task hands an agent the artifacts a cancer researcher would actually have and asks for a concrete conclusion. Your job is to establish defensible reference analyses and scoring criteria across conclusion types, the benchmark measures that span basic cancer biology to clinical outcomes. You'll anticipate where agents take plausible but wrong turns and test whether they can handle experimental variability, incomplete data, conflicting evidence, and mechanism-driven tradeoffs.
Our team emphasizes cross-domain integration and long-horizon reasoning.
Requirements
  • 1+ years personally working in basic, translational, or clinical cancer biology. Experience with hands on analysis of multi-omic tumor data hands-on somatic/germline variant calling and interpretation (WES/WGS/panel; MAF/VCF), copy-number and structural-variant analysis, mutational signatures, bulk and single-cell RNA-seq (cell-state annotation, subtyping), tumor-immune contexture (immune deconvolution, spatial transcriptomics, multiplex imaging), subclonal reconstruction, or functional-genomics screens (CRISPR/RNAi), or clinical research is highly preferred.
  • Proficiency in Python and/or R: VCF/MAF parsing, single-cell analysis (Scanpy/Seurat), gene-set scoring (GSEA/ssGSEA), immune deconvolution (CIBERSORTx), subclonal reconstruction (PyClone), statistical analysis.
  • Understanding of cancer-genomics standards: AMP/ASCO/CAP and ACMG/AMP variant tiers, ESCAT and OncoKB actionability levels, PAM50 and Consensus Molecular Subtypes, IFN-γ/T-cell-inflamed signature, consensus Immunoscore.
  • Recognize experimental variability, and assay limitations; distinguish real biological signal from pipeline or annotation artifact.
  • Strong written communication on technical decisions, uncertainty, and alternative interpretations.

Nice-to-Have
  • Familiarity with cancer-genomics resources and standards: TCGA/GDC, PCAWG, AACR Project GENIE, cBioPortal, OncoKB/CIViC/VICC, COSMIC signatures, HTAN, Human Cell Atlas, DepMap/Project Score, gnomAD/ClinVar, MSigDB.
  • Breadth across multiple conclusion types like: diagnosis, mechanism, clonal evolution, immune contexture, target nomination, actionability.
  • Prior work on benchmarks, task-based assessment, or deterministic grading.

Culture @ Latch
How we work. Genuinely flexible schedules - we just ask that you communicate when you're coming in later than usual. We care most about hard work and output. We're respectfully opinionated, it will always be us against problems, not each other. Optimize for each other's time and bring solutions, not just problems. You'll join a bench suited to your expertise, but we value cross-domain learning and interoperability across teams.
Office & Perks. Waterfront office near Oracle Park, 2x free daily meals, unlimited snacks, company outings most months, and team offsites. Plus a vibrant community: cycling, soccer, figure skating, boxing, run clubs, reading clubs, martial arts, music, game nights.
Compensation & Logistics
  • 1099 (or W8-BEN) contract, 40 hrs/week, no end date
  • Fully performance-based pay - OTE: $120K-$180K, uncapped upside. 2x quota = 2x pay.
  • 2-4 week paid ramp: full OTE during ramp
  • Remote (globally), hybrid, or onsite in SF (onsite preferred)
  • Work authorization: OPT visa holders only (not STEM Extension)
  • Onsite perks: 2x free meals/day, waterfront office (China Basin), monthly parking (based on availability)
  • Candidates with all of the above qualifications + proven management skills will be eligible for more senior positions
