About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English and indicate your English proficiency level.
Mindrift offers a unique platform that connects talented specialists with project-based AI opportunities at leading technology firms, focusing on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Please note that participation is project-based and does not constitute permanent employment.
Role Overview
While each project presents distinct challenges, contributors can expect to:
- Design innovative computational engineering problems that replicate genuine engineering processes;
- Create scenarios that necessitate Python programming to resolve engineering calculations and simulations;
- Ensure tasks are computationally demanding and require numerical methods or iterative solutions;
- Develop challenges related to system design, optimization, and analysis;
- Base scenarios on authentic research challenges or practical engineering applications;
- Validate solutions using Python with established engineering libraries;
- Clearly document problem statements and provide verified correct answers.
Ideal Candidate Profile
This position suits engineers proficient in Python who are interested in part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideal candidates will 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 any domain-specific programming languages is also acceptable;
- At least 2 years of professional experience in applied engineering, research, or teaching;
- A solid understanding of practical engineering limitations and approximations;
- Strong written English skills (C1+ level);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are advantageous.
