About Mindrift
Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI work for leading technology companies. The focus is on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. This is a project-based role, not a permanent position.
Role Overview: Freelance AI Trainer (Research Physicist with Python Skills)
Contributors design and validate computational physics problems that support AI development. Work is remote within Sweden and project-based.
What You Will Do
- Create original computational physics problems that reflect real-world research workflows
- Formulate problems requiring Python programming for solutions, using libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, and SymPy
- Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within a reasonable timeframe
- Develop challenges involving complex reasoning in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics
- Design problems inspired by actual research or practical applications in physics
- Validate solutions using Python and standard physics simulation libraries
- Document problem statements clearly and provide verified solutions
What We Look For
- Degree in Physics (theoretical, experimental, or computational) or a related field
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; experience with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, or similar tools is also valued
- Minimum 2 years of relevant professional experience (applied, research, or teaching)
- Experience with numerical simulation methods
- Ability to design problems that mirror authentic physics research workflows
- Creative problem-solving skills across multiple physics domains
- Understanding of physics modeling and approximation techniques
- Strong written English skills (C1 level or higher)
