About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English, including your English proficiency level.
At Mindrift, we connect talented specialists with project-based AI opportunities that cater to leading tech companies, emphasizing the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that this is a project-based opportunity, not a full-time employment position.
Opportunity Overview:
Each project presents distinct tasks. As a contributor, you may be responsible for:
- Designing innovative computational engineering challenges that replicate authentic engineering workflows;
- Creating tasks that necessitate Python programming for engineering calculations and simulations;
- Ensuring tasks are computationally demanding and require the application of numerical methods or iterative solutions;
- Developing problems focused on system design, optimization, and thorough analysis;
- Incorporating real research issues or practical engineering applications into problem statements;
- Verifying solutions using Python in conjunction with standard engineering libraries;
- Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct answers.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
This role is perfect for engineers proficient in Python and seeking flexible, part-time, non-permanent projects. The ideal candidates will possess:
- A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline;
- Strong proficiency in Python for numerical validation, with equivalent skills in MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, or Stata;
- A minimum of 2 years of relevant professional experience, whether in applied engineering, research, or teaching;
- A solid understanding of practical engineering constraints and approximations;
- Excellent written English skills (C1+);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are highly advantageous.
How the Process Works:
1. Apply → 2. Pass qualifications → 3. Join a project → 4. Complete tasks → 5. Receive payment.
Project Time Expectations:
For this specific project, tasks are projected to require approximately 10–20 hours per week during active phases, depending on the project demands. This is an estimate and does not guarantee a fixed workload throughout the project duration.
Compensation:
Contributors can earn up to $17 per hour, based on their experience and contribution pace. Compensation may vary across different projects depending on their scope, complexity, and the expertise required. Please bear in mind that other projects on the platform may offer different compensation levels based on their specific requirements.
