About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English and specify your English proficiency level.
Mindrift connects talented specialists with project-based AI opportunities for top technology firms, concentrating on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that participation is project-based and does not constitute permanent employment.
Overview of the Opportunity
Each project presents unique challenges, and contributors may be tasked with:
- Designing original computational engineering problems that reflect real-world engineering workflows;
- Creating problems that necessitate Python programming to perform engineering calculations and simulations;
- Ensuring the problems are computationally intensive and require numerical methods or iterative solutions;
- Developing problems centered on system design, optimization, and analysis;
- Creating challenges based on authentic research issues or practical applications from the engineering field;
- Validating solutions using Python alongside standard engineering libraries;
- Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct answers.
Ideal Candidate Profile
This role is well-suited for engineers proficient in Python who are open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, candidates should possess:
- A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or other domain-specific libraries is also acceptable;
- A minimum of 2 years of professional experience in applied, research, or teaching roles;
- A solid understanding of practical engineering constraints and approximations;
- Exceptional written English skills (C1+);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are advantageous.
Application Process
To apply, follow these steps: Apply → Pass qualification checks → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get compensated.
Project Time Commitment
During active phases, tasks are anticipated to require approximately 10-20 hours per week, depending on project needs. This estimate is not a guaranteed workload and is applicable only while the project is ongoing.
Compensation
Contributors can earn up to $39 per hour, contingent on their expertise and contribution pace. Compensation varies by project based on scope, complexity, and required skills. Other projects on the platform may offer different earning opportunities based on their specific requirements.
