About the role

Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

What This Opportunity Involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:

Design original computational STEM problems that simulate real scientific workflows

Create problems that require Python programming to solve

Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks)

Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains and creative problem-solving approaches

Verify solutions using Python with standard libraries (Numpy, Pandas, Scipy, scikit-learn)

Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers

What We Look For

This opportunity is a good fit for ML specialists with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:

5+ years of hands-on machine learning experience with proven business impact

Portfolio of completed projects and publications showcasing real-world problem-solving

Expert Python programming for data science (pandas, numpy, scipy, scikit-learn, statsmodels)

Expert statistical analysis and machine learning - deep understanding of algorithms, methods, and their practical applications

Expert with SQL and database operations for data manipulation and analysis

Experience with GenAI technologies (LLMs, RAG, prompt engineering, vector databases)

Understanding of MLOps practices and model deployment workflows

Knowledge of modern frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, LangChain)

Strong written English (C1+)
