About Science & Research jobs

Science and research jobs cover everyone whose primary work is generating new knowledge or applying knowledge to specific problems. The titles span academic researchers (postdocs, research scientists, principal investigators / PIs, professors), industry researchers (research scientist roles at biotech, pharma, AI labs, materials companies, robotics companies), government scientists (NIH / National Institutes of Health, CDC / Centers for Disease Control, NOAA / National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, DOE / Department of Energy national labs), and applied research engineers (ML/AI research engineers, computational biology, materials engineering, R&D / research and development). The work shifts from pure science (driven by curiosity and grant cycles) to applied research (driven by product roadmaps and competitive timelines) depending on the setting.

Postings here come from the same multi-source feed: broad aggregators, federal feeds, remote-only listings, and tech-heavy boards. The full list refreshes once a day. You'll see academic positions across universities, biotech and pharma research roles, industry AI research positions at top labs, federal scientist positions, and applied research engineering roles at companies with active R&D programs.

Signed in? The list is re-ranked against your values assessment, so the roles at the top are the ones that line up with what actually matters to you: comp, the kind of research (basic vs. applied vs. translational), the setting (academic vs. industry vs. government), funding stability, the team. The scoring math is the same for everyone; the weighting is yours.

What does a science or research job pay?

Pay diverges enormously by setting. Academic researcher pay tracks academic hierarchy: postdoc $55-75k (low for the credentialing required), assistant professor $80-110k, full professor $110-200k+ at research universities. Industry research scientist pay is dramatically higher: PhD research scientist at biotech or pharma $130-200k+ with bonus; AI/ML research scientist at top industry labs $300-700k+ total comp (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepMind, Google Research, Meta FAIR pay especially aggressively for top talent); research engineer roles at applied AI labs $250-500k. Government scientist pay follows the GS (General Schedule) federal pay scale, generally below comparable industry but with strong benefits, security, and tenure-track equivalents. National lab scientists (DOE labs especially) bridge academic-style work with civil-service stability and pay in the $100-180k range. Postdocs in industry pay higher than academic postdocs but lower than full research scientist roles.

Are science and research jobs hiring remote?

Mostly no, because the work is often tied to physical labs, equipment, or institutional resources. Wet-lab biology, chemistry, materials science, and most biomedical research require on-site presence. Computational research (AI/ML research, computational biology, theoretical physics, data-heavy social science) is much more remote-friendly because the work runs on cloud compute and collaboration happens over Slack and Zoom. Industry AI research labs vary in stance. Some are heavily remote-friendly, others insist on hub locations (SF Bay Area, NYC, Seattle, London) for collaboration density. Government science roles are mostly on-site or hybrid because labs and equipment are tied to physical sites. Academic positions are essentially always on-site for tenure-track. The remote toggle on this page filters to listings tagged remote-only or remote-first.

Entry-level vs senior science and research roles

Entry-level is gated heavily by credential. Research scientist roles in industry almost universally require a PhD; research engineer or research associate roles are accessible with bachelor's or master's plus strong technical skills. Academic entry is gated by terminal degree (PhD) followed by postdoc(s). Computational research has more entry-points because applied ML and computational biology roles can take strong CS or engineering graduates from undergrad and master's. Senior roles vary dramatically: tenure-track and tenured professor on the academic side; senior research scientist, principal research scientist, and director of research on the industry side; senior scientist and lab director on the government side. Pay scales with both credential and demonstrated research output (publications, citations, patents, products shipped). Reading senior level from a listing: required degree level, expected publication record, leadership scope, and whether the role involves grant writing (academic) vs. roadmap setting (industry).

How to compare two science or research offers

Research offers vary on dimensions other industries don't have. Pin down: the actual research direction (your interest, your group's strength, what's likely to be funded over the next 5 years), the funding stability of the host institution or group (NIH / National Institutes of Health and NSF / National Science Foundation funding climate, industry budget commitment, philanthropic backers), the lab leader you'd work with (the most important variable for academic roles; their mentorship style, their publication record, their funding history), the equipment and computational resources available, intellectual property arrangements (especially relevant in biotech and AI), and publication freedom (some industry labs heavily restrict what you can publish externally). WorkWomp's offer comparison handles this kind of multi-variable decision. Save both offers, run the 5-minute values assessment so the scoring weights what actually matters to you, drop in interview notes (the lab leader, the research direction, equipment, publication policy), and the breakdown shows which offer wins where.

Common questions

  • Should I do a PhD?

    Depends entirely on what you want from your career. If you want to do original research as the core of your career (academic faculty, industry research scientist, principal investigator), the PhD is the credential that gates those roles. If you want to do applied technical work or science-adjacent product roles, a PhD is rarely necessary and often net-negative on time-to-impact. The PhD takes 4-7 years of below-market pay, and the academic job market has been structurally tight for 15+ years, so it's an investment that pays off most clearly in industry research labs and not always in academia. The honest framing: pursue a PhD because you can't stop thinking about a research problem you want to solve, not because you think it'll automatically lead to good jobs.

  • Industry research vs. academic research?

    Different jobs that share a skill base. Industry research: shorter cycles, more applied (tied to product roadmaps), better resources and pay, less publication freedom, less control over research direction (managers and exec strategy heavily shape priorities), more team-based work, less teaching obligation. Academic research: longer cycles, more freedom of inquiry, grant-funded so funding stability depends on writing successful proposals, broader publication freedom, more independent control over research direction, more teaching and service obligations (committees, advising), and tenure as the long-term security gate. The trend has been heavy migration from academia to industry research, especially in AI/ML, biotech, and materials science. Industry pays multiples more for similar work and the resources are dramatically better in well-funded labs.

  • What does a research scientist actually do day-to-day?

    Depends on the field and setting, but the core activities are similar. Design experiments or studies, collect or generate data, analyze results, write papers or internal reports, present findings to colleagues or stakeholders, read others' research to stay current, and contribute to the broader research agenda of the group. Industry research scientists spend additional time on cross-functional partnership with engineers, product, or business teams, and translating research outputs into something usable in production. Academic research scientists spend additional time writing grant proposals, mentoring graduate students, and teaching. AI/ML research scientists spend significant time running large-scale experiments, reading recent papers, and writing code. Closer to research engineering than to traditional lab science. The day-to-day differs enormously by field but the core skill is iterative problem-framing and disciplined investigation.

  • Are AI research jobs the highest-paying scientific roles?

    At top industry labs, yes, and by a wide margin. Research scientist roles at OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepMind, Google Research, Meta FAIR, and similar labs offer total comp packages that frequently exceed $500k and reach into seven figures at senior levels for the strongest researchers. The market is driven by enormous demand for AI capability and a constrained supply of researchers with publication records in the relevant areas (deep learning, large language models, RL / reinforcement learning, agents). The trade-off: the field moves faster than any other research area in modern history, and 'state of the art' shifts every 3-6 months. Publication restrictions vary by lab; some labs require pre-publication review that effectively suppresses some externally published work. The compensation premium reflects both market scarcity and the strategic value of the work to the companies paying.

  • Is AI replacing research jobs?

    It's accelerating routine parts of the research process while creating entirely new research roles. AI tools can do literature search, summarize papers, run preliminary statistical analyses, generate code for standard experiments, and draft first-pass reports. The roles being augmented (and now more productive): most senior researchers, who are now able to cover more ground per unit time. The roles being squeezed: junior researchers whose contribution was mostly the mechanical work AI now handles. The roles being created: AI safety researchers, AI evaluation researchers, machine learning interpretability researchers. Entire subfields that didn't exist five years ago and are hiring aggressively. The honest framing: if your research work is mostly routine analysis and writing, AI is changing your job substantively. If your research work is generating novel ideas, designing rigorous experiments, and interpreting unexpected results, you're fine.
