About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English and specify your English proficiency level.
At Mindrift, we bridge the gap between skilled professionals and project-centric AI opportunities with top-tier tech companies. Our focus is on evaluating, testing, and enhancing AI systems through innovative problem-solving. Please note that this is a project-based engagement, not a permanent role.
What This Role Entails
While each assignment presents distinct challenges, contributors may engage in the following:
- Create original optical problems that replicate authentic physics research workflows;
- Ensure that problems are computationally demanding, requiring days or weeks for manual resolution;
- Devise tasks that involve complex reasoning across mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
- Base tasks on genuine research obstacles or practical applications in optics and physics;
- Clearly document problem statements and provide verified correct solutions.
Ideal Candidate Profile
This role is best suited for optical engineers interested in part-time, non-permanent projects. We seek candidates who possess:
- A degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related disciplines;
- A minimum of 2 years of professional experience, including applied, research, or teaching backgrounds;
- Proficiency in numerical simulation methods;
- The capability to formulate problems that reflect real physics research processes;
- Creative problem-solving skills across various physics domains;
- Knowledge of physics modeling and approximation techniques;
- Excellent command of written English (C1+).
Work Process
Application → Qualification Assessment → Project Assignment → Task Completion → Compensation
Project Commitment
Estimated project tasks will require approximately 10–20 hours per week during active phases, contingent on project specifics. This estimate is not a guaranteed workload and is applicable solely while the project is active.
Compensation Structure
Participants can earn up to $10 per hour, commensurate with their contribution level and pace. Compensation varies across projects based on scope, complexity, and expertise required. Please be aware that different projects may offer varying compensation rates.
