Mathematics Expert (Masters/PhDs)

$75-90/hrRemoteFreelanceSTEM

About the Role

What if your years of graduate-level mathematics training could directly shape how AI reasons through the world's most complex problems? We're looking for Mathematics Experts — Masters and PhD holders — to help train cutting-edge AI models to think more rigorously, solve more accurately, and reason more like a true mathematician.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for academics, researchers, and advanced practitioners who want to put their deep expertise to work on something genuinely frontier. No prior AI experience needed — just exceptional mathematical knowledge and a sharp, precise mind.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Develop, solve, and review advanced mathematical problems with real-world relevance and rigorous structure
  • Apply your expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to design complex, meaningful problem sets
  • Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning for correctness, depth, and clarity
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to strengthen model performance
  • Ensure mathematical rigor and precision across all deliverables — from problem statements to worked solutions

Who You Are

  • Holder of a Master's or PhD in Mathematics or a closely related field
  • Deeply fluent in at least one core area: algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or equivalent
  • Comfortable working with Python, MATLAB, or Mathematica for research or problem-solving tasks
  • Exceptionally precise in both written and verbal communication — you know how to make complex ideas clear
  • Self-directed and reliable when working independently in an asynchronous environment
  • Fluent in English

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality evaluation, or AI training workflows
  • Background in academic research, mathematical publishing, or curriculum design
  • Familiarity with applied mathematics, mathematical modeling, or computational methods
  • Experience reviewing or grading advanced mathematical work

Why Join Us

  • Work on frontier AI projects alongside leading AI research labs and teams
  • Fully remote and flexible — structure your hours around your life, not the other way around
  • Freelance autonomy with the consistency of ongoing, meaningful task-based work
  • Apply your graduate-level expertise to problems that genuinely matter at scale
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
