About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English, emphasizing your proficiency in the language.
At Mindrift, we bridge the gap between talented specialists and exciting project-based AI opportunities with top tech firms, dedicated to the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that this is a project-based engagement rather than a full-time position.
Project Overview:
Each project presents distinct challenges, and contributors may:
- Craft original computational physics scenarios that closely mirror authentic research workflows;
- Develop problems that necessitate Python programming for resolution (utilizing libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
- Ensure tasks are computationally demanding, requiring extensive periods (days to weeks) for resolution;
- Formulate problems that involve complex reasoning chains across mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
- Base scenarios on genuine research dilemmas or applicable situations from the field of physics;
- Validate solutions using Python alongside standard physics simulation libraries;
- Clearly document problem statements and provide verified correct solutions.
What We Seek:
This opportunity is ideal for individuals with a background in physics and experience in Python, who are interested in flexible, part-time, non-permanent projects. The ideal candidates will possess:
- A degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or a related discipline;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation. Familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, and other domain-specific libraries is also acceptable;
- At least 2 years of relevant professional experience in applied physics, research, or education;
- Experience with numerical simulation techniques;
- The ability to design problems that reflect real physics research processes;
- Innovative thinking in developing problems across various physics domains;
- An understanding of physics modeling and approximation methods;
- Strong command of written English (C1+ level).
How the Process Works:
Apply → Meet qualifications → Engage in a project → Complete tasks → Receive compensation.
Project Time Commitment:
During active phases, tasks are expected to demand approximately 10–20 hours weekly, contingent on the project's requirements. This is an estimate and not a guaranteed workload.
Compensation:
Contributors can earn up to $26 per hour, depending on their contribution level and pace. Compensation may vary between projects based on their scope, complexity, and expertise required. Other projects may offer different earning potentials based on their specific needs.
