Mathematics Expert (Masters/PhDs)

$75-90/hrRemoteFreelanceSTEM

About the Role

What if your expertise in advanced mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons, solves problems, and communicates with the world? We're looking for Mathematics experts — Masters and PhD holders — to help build and refine the mathematical reasoning capabilities of cutting-edge AI models.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You'll work asynchronously alongside world-class AI researchers, applying your deep mathematical knowledge to problems that genuinely matter. No prior AI experience needed — your expertise in mathematics is what counts.

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

What You'll Do

  • Develop, solve, and critically review advanced mathematical problems with real-world relevance
  • Design complex, rigorous problem statements across algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas
  • Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning and outputs for correctness, clarity, and depth
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to strengthen AI model performance
  • Ensure the highest standards of mathematical rigor and precision across all deliverables
  • Work independently on task-based assignments at your own pace and schedule

Who You Are

  • Holds a Master's or PhD in Mathematics or a closely related field
  • Deep expertise in one or more of: algebra, calculus, statistics, or discrete mathematics
  • Comfortable coding in Python, MATLAB, or Mathematica for research or applied problem-solving
  • Exceptionally detail-oriented — you catch errors others miss and care deeply about precision
  • Clear and confident written communicator, able to explain complex ideas with rigor and clarity
  • Fluent in English and currently based in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, or New Zealand

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience in data annotation, evaluation systems, or AI quality assurance
  • Background in mathematical research, academic publishing, or technical writing
  • Familiarity with AI tools or machine learning concepts
  • Experience designing or grading advanced problem sets in an academic setting

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and AI teams
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
  • Apply your advanced expertise to problems at the frontier of AI development
  • Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and reasons through mathematics
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
