About the job
Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.
At Mindrift, we specialize in connecting skilled professionals with exciting project-based AI opportunities at leading technology companies, dedicated to testing, evaluating, and enhancing AI systems. Note that all positions are project-based and not permanent employment.
Role Overview
As a contributor, you will engage in various tasks specific to each project, including:
- Creating original computational statistics challenges that replicate authentic mathematical research workflows;
- Designing problems that necessitate Python programming for resolution (utilizing libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, and Sympy);
- Ensuring that challenges are computationally demanding and cannot be solved manually in a reasonable timeframe;
- Formulating problems requiring complex reasoning in domains like number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and numerical analysis;
- Grounding problems in genuine research obstacles or practical mathematical applications;
- Validating solutions using Python with standard mathematical libraries;
- Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct answers.
Qualifications and Requirements
This position is ideal for statistics specialists with Python experience who are open to part-time, temporary projects. Preferred qualifications include:
- A degree in Statistics or a related field;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation, with familiarity in MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or equivalent programming languages;
- A minimum of 2 years of professional experience, whether in applied work, research, or teaching;
- Strong written English (C1+ proficiency);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects will be advantageous.
Process Overview
To participate, you will need to apply, pass any necessary qualifications, join a project, complete assigned tasks, and receive compensation.
Project Commitment
Active phases of projects are estimated to require approximately 10–20 hours per week, depending on specific project demands. Please note this is an estimate and not a guaranteed workload.
Compensation
Contributors can earn up to $73 per hour, contingent upon their level of expertise and contribution pace. Compensation varies by project based on scope, complexity, and expertise required. Be aware that other projects may offer differing compensation structures.
