ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking highly skilled Mathematics Experts to support an AI training project involving advanced mathematical problem-solving, computational mathematics, numerical methods, and Python.

You will create, solve, review, and validate mathematical tasks using computational and command-line workflows. This includes translating mathematical problems into executable procedures, implementing algorithms, conducting numerical experiments, and verifying the accuracy of results.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Solve and validate advanced mathematical and computational problems.

• Translate mathematical requirements into precise, executable workflows.

• Implement mathematical equations and algorithms using Python and command-line tools.

• Automate calculations, numerical experiments, parameter sweeps, and visualizations.

• Test special cases and validate mathematical and numerical results.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• MSc. or PhD in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Operations Research, Computational Science, Theoretical Computer Science, or a related quantitative field.

OR

• Bachelor's degree in Mathematics or a closely related field, plus 1–2 years of mathematics-focused professional or research experience at leading companies or institutions.

• Strong expertise in at least one area, including applied mathematics, numerical analysis, optimization, probability, statistics, discrete mathematics, algebra, geometry, mathematical modeling, or dynamical systems.

• Practical Python programming and computational problem-solving skills.

RELEVANT TECHNICAL TOOLS

Experience with Python libraries and computational tools such as NumPy, SciPy, SymPy, pandas, Matplotlib, Jupyter, CVXPY, SageMath, Julia, GNU Octave, numerical solvers, or comparable command-line-accessible software. No single library is mandatory.

APPLICATION PROCESS

1. Submit an application and complete screening questions.

2. Complete an approximately 30-minute AI interview.

3. Undergo hiring manager review.

4. Complete onboarding and begin the first assigned task.

COMPENSATION AND WORK ARRANGEMENT

Compensation is output-based, with payment for accepted tasks that meet project specifications. Minimum task submission requirements apply. Selected candidates should be available to begin their first task within 24–48 hours after onboarding.

The advertised compensation is $60–$120 per hour, while the detailed job description specifies $80–$120 per hour.

Annualized equivalent: $115,200–$230,400, based on 40 hours per week and 48 working weeks per year.

Annualized compensation is an illustrative equivalent based on 40 hours/week × 48 weeks/year. Actual earnings depend on hours worked, project availability, and approved work.
