Mathematics Expert (Masters/PhDs)

$75-90/hrRemoteFreelanceSTEM

About the Role

What if your years of advanced mathematical 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 harder problems, and reason more like the best mathematical minds on the planet.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No AI background needed — just deep mathematical expertise and a sharp eye for rigorous, well-constructed problem-solving.

  • 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 and depth
  • Design complex problem statements drawing on your expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas
  • Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning for correctness, rigor, and clarity
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and fellow domain experts to push the boundaries of AI mathematical reasoning
  • Ensure every deliverable meets the highest standards of mathematical accuracy and logical coherence
  • 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
  • Deep expertise in one or more of: algebra, calculus, statistics, or discrete mathematics
  • Comfortable working with Python, MATLAB, or Mathematica for research or problem-solving applications
  • Naturally detail-oriented — you notice when a proof doesn't hold or a derivation goes wrong
  • Clear and precise written communicator who can explain complex ideas with confidence
  • Fluent in English

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or AI evaluation workflows
  • Background in applied mathematics, mathematical modelling, or computational research
  • Experience designing problem sets, assessments, or technical curriculum
  • Familiarity with AI tools or large language model evaluation

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
  • Make a direct, tangible impact on how AI understands and applies advanced mathematics
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
