Job description

Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

What this opportunity involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may: 

  • Design original computational mathematics problems that simulate real mathematical research workflows;
  • Create problems requiring Python programming to solve (using Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
  • Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks);
  • Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in areas like number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and numerical analysis;
  • Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from mathematical practice;
  • Verify solutions using Python with standard mathematical libraries;
  • Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.

What we look for

This opportunity is a good fit for mathematicians with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:  

  • Degree in Mathematics (Pure or Applied) or related fields;
  • Python proficiency for numerical validation. MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, Stata or knowledge of any programming language can be equivalent;
  • 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable;
  • Experience with numerical methods and symbolic computation;
  • Ability to design problems that mirror real mathematical research workflows;
  • Familiarity with computational complexity theory;
  • Strong written English (C1+).
