Mindrift connects skilled specialists with project-based AI work for leading technology companies. Projects focus on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. All participation is project-based and does not create permanent employment.
Role overview
This freelance AI Trainer role centers on designing and validating computational physics problems that require Python programming. Each project brings a unique set of tasks, often inspired by real research workflows or practical physics applications. Contributors may:
- Design computational physics problems that reflect authentic research scenarios
- Create challenges solvable only through Python code, often using libraries like Numpy, SciPy, or Sympy
- Ensure problems are computationally intensive and not easily solved by hand
- Develop questions requiring advanced reasoning in areas such as mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, or quantum mechanics
- Validate solutions in Python, sometimes using established physics simulation libraries
- Document problem statements clearly and provide confirmed correct answers
Requirements
- Degree in Physics (theoretical, experimental, or computational) or a related discipline
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; experience with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or similar tools is a plus
- At least 2 years in applied research or teaching roles
- Background in numerical simulation methods
- Ability to design problems that mirror real-world physics research
- Creative problem-solving across multiple physics domains
- Strong understanding of physics modeling and approximation techniques
- Excellent written English skills at C1 level or above
