Design original computational STEM problems that simulate real scientific workflows
Create problems that require Python programming to solve
Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks)
Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains and creative problem-solving approaches
Verify solutions using Python with standard libraries (numpy, pandas, scipy, sklearn)
Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers

Requirements

You hold a Master’s or PhD Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a similar STEM field
You have at least 5 years of Machine Learning experience with proven business impact

Preferred Qualifications

Strong programming skills in Python (numpy, pandas, scipy, sklearn)
Solid understanding of numerical methods and computational algorithms
Research or industry experience involving computational problem-solving
Your level of English is advanced (C1) or above
You are ready to learn new methods, able to switch between tasks and topics quickly and sometimes work with challenging, complex guidelines
Our freelance role is fully remote so, you just need a laptop, internet connection, time available and enthusiasm to take on a challenge

Work on advanced AI projects and gain valuable experience that enhances your portfolio
Influence how future AI models understand and communicate in your field of expertise

About Mindrift

Mindrift is a platform that connects experts and clients working in the AI space on projects designed to advance Generative AI models. Experts get paid to use their expertise to create high-quality text, which is then used to train cutting-edge AI—the same AI you might already be using in your daily life. Generative AI models work by “learning” from a wide range of information, and are then refined through a variety of methods to improve what the model should and should not say.
