About the job
Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.
Mindrift connects talented specialists with project-based opportunities in artificial intelligence for leading technology firms, emphasizing the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that participation in projects is temporary and not a permanent position.
Role Overview:
Each project presents distinct tasks, where contributors may:
- Design innovative computational statistics challenges that reflect authentic mathematical research processes;
- Develop problems that necessitate Python programming to resolve (utilizing libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
- Ensure challenges are computationally demanding and cannot be addressed manually within practical timeframes (spanning days/weeks);
- Construct problems that require complex reasoning in domains such as number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and numerical analysis;
- Base challenges on genuine research dilemmas or applicable scenarios from mathematical practices;
- Validate solutions using Python and standard mathematical libraries;
- Clearly document problem statements and provide verified correct solutions.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
This opportunity is suited for statistics professionals with Python expertise who are interested in part-time, non-permanent projects. Preferred qualifications include:
- A degree in Statistics or a related field;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation. Familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, or Stata can also be considered;
- A minimum of 2 years of professional experience in applied, research, or teaching capacities;
- Strong written English skills (C1+ level);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are beneficial.
Application Process:
Apply → Pass qualifications → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get compensated
Project Time Expectations:
Tasks are anticipated to require approximately 10–20 hours per week during active project phases, depending on specific project needs. This is an estimate and not a guaranteed workload, applicable only while the project is active.
Compensation:
Contributors can earn up to $39 per hour, contingent upon their level of expertise and contribution pace. Compensation varies by project based on scope, complexity, and required skills. Please be aware that other projects on the platform may offer different earning potential based on their requirements.
