Chemistry & Python Expert - Freelance AI Trainer

Mindrift

Houston, TX

$76/hr

Part-time

Posted 13 days ago

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 chemistry problems that simulate real chemistry research workflows;
  • Create problems requiring Python programming to solve (using numpy, scipy, chemical libraries);
  • Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks);
  • Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in physical chemistry, quantum chemistry, and molecular modeling;
  • Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from chemistry practice;
  • Verify solutions using Python with standard computational chemistry approaches;
  • Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.

What we look for

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

  • Degree in Chemistry 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 in chemistry;
  • Familiarity with computational chemistry concepts and methods;
  • Strong written English (C1+).

Project time expectations

For this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10-20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active.

Compensation

On this project, contributors can earn up to $76 per hour equivalent, depending on their level and pace of contribution.

Compensation varies across projects depending on scope, complexity, and required expertise. Please note that other projects on the platform may offer different earning levels based on their requirements.
