About Turing:

Based in San Francisco, California, Turing is the world’s leading research accelerator for frontier AI labs and a trusted partner for global enterprises deploying advanced AI systems. Turing supports customers in two ways: first, by accelerating frontier research with high-quality data, advanced training pipelines, plus top AI researchers who specialize in coding, reasoning, STEM, multilinguality, multimodality, and agents; and second, by applying that expertise to help enterprises transform AI from proof of concept into proprietary intelligence with systems that perform reliably, deliver measurable impact, and drive lasting results on the P&L.

  2. Mechanical Engineering
  3. Materials Science
  4. Phylogenetics
  5. Computer Science (AI/ML)
  • Knowledge of python programming language.
  • Note: all qualified candidates will go through a background verification process, so please make sure your answers reflect credentials and experience you can document
  • Ability to start immediately
  • Feedback Skills: Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations.
  • Communication: Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills in a remote setting.
  • Independence: Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting.
  • Technical Setup: Desktop/Laptop set up with a good internet connection.


Perks of Freelancing With Turing:

  • Work in a fully remote environment
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies
  • Potential for contract extension based on performance and project needs
