About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English, along with your proficiency level in English.
Mindrift connects talented specialists with innovative project-based AI opportunities from leading technology firms, concentrating on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that this role is project-based and does not lead to permanent employment.
Key Responsibilities:
- Craft original computational mathematics problems that reflect authentic mathematical research workflows;
- Develop Python-based problems requiring solutions using libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, and Sympy;
- Ensure that problems are computationally demanding and cannot be solved manually within a reasonable timeframe (days/weeks);
- Create problems that necessitate complex reasoning in fields like number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and numerical analysis;
- Base problems on genuine research challenges or practical applications within mathematics;
- Confirm solutions using Python alongside standard mathematical libraries;
- Thoroughly document problem statements and provide validated, accurate answers.
Qualifications:
This opportunity is tailored for mathematicians with Python experience, looking for part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideal candidates will possess:
- A degree in Mathematics (Pure or Applied) or a related field;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation (experience with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or any programming language is also considered);
- At least 2 years of professional experience in applied mathematics, research, or teaching;
- Familiarity with numerical methods and symbolic computation;
- The ability to design problems that accurately reflect real mathematical research workflows;
- Understanding of computational complexity theory;
- Strong command of written English (C1 level or higher).
