About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English and specify your level of English proficiency.
Mindrift is dedicated to connecting experts with project-based AI opportunities in collaboration with leading technology companies, focusing on assessing, evaluating, and enhancing AI systems. Please note that this role is project-based and does not constitute permanent employment.
What You Will Do
Your contributions will vary with each project, but typically you will:
- Craft original computational physics problems that emulate authentic physics research workflows;
- Develop challenges that necessitate Python programming for solutions (utilizing libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
- Ensure the complexity of problems is such that they require substantial computational effort and cannot be resolved manually within reasonable timeframes;
- Create problems that demand intricate reasoning across mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
- Base challenges on real-world research questions or applicable scenarios in the field of physics;
- Validate solutions through Python using standard physics simulation libraries;
- Clearly document problem statements and provide thoroughly verified correct answers.
Who We Are Looking For
This opportunity is ideal for physicists with a strong background in Python, seeking part-time, non-permanent projects. Successful candidates will have:
- A degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or in a related field;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or any comparable programming language is also advantageous;
- A minimum of 2 years of relevant professional experience, whether in application, research, or teaching;
- Experience with numerical simulation methods;
- The capability to devise problems that accurately reflect real physics research workflows;
- Innovative thinking in developing challenges across various areas of physics;
- A solid understanding of physics modeling and approximation techniques;
- Excellent written English skills (C1+ proficiency).
