Please submit your CV in English and specify your proficiency level in English.
Mindrift is a dynamic platform that connects talented specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading technology companies. Our focus is on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. Note: This is a project-based opportunity, not a permanent position.
Opportunity Overview
Each project presents unique challenges, and contributors may engage in tasks such as:
- Creating rigorous physics problems that mirror real-world professional practices;
- Assessing AI solutions for accuracy, assumptions, and limitations;
- Validating computations or simulations using Python libraries (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy);
- Enhancing AI reasoning to conform with industry-standard logic;
- Implementing structured scoring criteria for multi-step problems.
Ideal Candidate Profile
This role is well-suited for physicists with Python experience seeking part-time, non-permanent projects. The ideal candidates will possess:
- An academic degree in Physics or a related field, such as Engineering Physics, Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, Optics, or Acoustics;
- A minimum of 3 years of professional experience in physics;
- Exceptional written English skills (C1/C2 level);
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation;
- A reliable internet connection.
Professional qualifications (e.g., CPhys, EurPhys, MInstP) and experience with international or applied projects are advantageous.
Project Workflow
Steps include: Apply → Pass qualifications → Join a project → Complete tasks → Receive payment.
Time Commitment
Tasks are estimated to require 10–20 hours per week during active project phases, based on specific project needs. This is an estimate and not a guaranteed workload.
Compensation
- Paid contributions with rates of up to $30/hour*;
- Fixed project rates or individual rates depending on project specifics;
- Selected projects may offer incentive payments.
*Note: Rates may vary based on expertise, skill assessments, location, project requirements, and other factors. Higher rates may be available for highly specialized experts. Lower rates may apply during onboarding or non-core project phases. Payment details will be provided per project.
