About the Role

What if your years of advanced mathematical training could directly shape how AI reasons through complex problems — for millions of people around the world? We're looking for Mathematics Experts with Masters or PhD-level credentials to help build and refine the mathematical reasoning capabilities of cutting-edge AI models.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You'll bring your deep expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to work that genuinely matters — helping AI think more rigorously, accurately, and powerfully.

  • 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, nuanced problem statements that test and expand AI reasoning capabilities
  • Apply deep expertise across algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related domains
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to improve model performance
  • Ensure mathematical rigor, clarity, and depth across every deliverable you produce
  • Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • Master's or PhD in Mathematics or a closely related field
  • Strong working expertise in one or more of: algebra, calculus, statistics, or discrete mathematics
  • Comfortable coding in Python, MATLAB, or Mathematica for research or problem-solving
  • Exceptionally clear communicator — both in writing and in articulating mathematical reasoning
  • Detail-oriented and rigorous, with a commitment to accuracy and depth
  • Fluent in English and based in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, or New Zealand

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or AI evaluation workflows
  • Background in applied mathematics, mathematical modeling, or computational research
  • Experience writing or reviewing academic or technical mathematical content
  • Familiarity with AI tools or machine learning concepts

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside the world's leading research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
  • Put your advanced degree to use in a high-impact, forward-looking field
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
