About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English, including your proficiency level in the language.
At Mindrift, we specialize in connecting experts with project-based AI opportunities in collaboration with leading technology firms, centering on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Note that participation is project-based and not aimed at permanent employment.
Project Overview
Each project presents unique challenges, and contributors may be tasked with:
- Designing innovative computational engineering problems that mimic genuine engineering workflows;
- Creating challenges that necessitate Python programming for engineering calculations and simulations;
- Ensuring that these problems are computationally demanding, requiring numerical methods or iterative solutions;
- Developing problems related to system design, optimization, and analysis;
- Grounding problems in actual research challenges or practical engineering applications;
- Verifying solutions through Python, utilizing standard engineering libraries;
- Documenting problem statements with clarity and providing verified accurate answers.
Qualifications We Seek
This role is ideal for engineers with Python experience who are open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Preferred qualifications include:
- 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, including applied, research, or teaching roles;
- A solid understanding of practical engineering constraints and approximations;
- Strong written English skills (C1+);
- Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are advantageous.
Process Overview
Step 1: Apply → Step 2: Pass qualifications → Step 3: Join a project → Step 4: Complete tasks → Step 5: Get compensated.
Project Time Commitment
During active phases, tasks are estimated to require approximately 10–20 hours per week, based on project requirements. This is an estimate and does not guarantee a fixed workload.
Compensation Details
Contributors can earn up to $37 per hour, depending on their level of expertise and contribution pace. Compensation varies across projects based on scope, complexity, and required skills. Please note that other projects may offer different earning levels based on their specific requirements.
