Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and enhancing AI systems. This is a project-based opportunity and does not offer permanent employment.
Opportunity Overview:
While each project presents unique challenges, contributors may be tasked with:
- Creating innovative material engineering problems that replicate real-world engineering workflows;
- Formulating problems that necessitate Python programming to execute engineering calculations and simulations;
- Ensuring problems are computationally intensive and require the application of numerical methods or iterative solutions;
- Designing problems focused on system design, optimization, and analysis;
- Grounding problems in real research challenges or practical applications from the field of engineering;
- Validating solutions using Python and established engineering libraries;
- Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct answers.
Qualifications We Seek:
This role is ideal for material scientists and engineers with Python experience who are open to non-permanent, part-time project work. Ideally, candidates should possess:
- A degree in Material Science or a related discipline;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation. Experience with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or any domain-specific programming languages will also be considered;
- At least 2 years of professional experience, including applied, research, or teaching roles;
- A solid understanding of practical engineering constraints and methodologies;
- Exceptional written communication skills in English (C1+ level).
How the Process Works:
Apply → Pass qualifications → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get compensated.
Project Time Commitment:
During active phases, tasks are expected to require approximately 10–20 hours per week, contingent on project demands. Please note this is an estimate and not a guaranteed workload.
Compensation:
Contributors can earn up to $29 per hour, depending on their contribution level and pace. Compensation may vary across different projects based on scope, complexity, and required expertise.
