About the Role

What if your deep expertise in mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons through the world's hardest problems? We're looking for Mathematics Specialists with advanced degrees to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models — ensuring they can think rigorously, solve complex problems, and reason with mathematical precision.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for mathematicians who want to do meaningful, intellectually engaging work on their own schedule. No AI background required — just a strong command of advanced mathematics and a commitment to quality.

  • 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 complexity
  • Apply your expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to design rigorous problem statements
  • Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning for correctness, depth, and clarity
  • Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to strengthen model performance
  • Ensure mathematical rigor, precision, and depth across all deliverables
  • Work independently on task-based assignments entirely on your own 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 problem-solving
  • Exceptionally detail-oriented with strong analytical and written communication skills
  • Fluent in English and self-motivated when working independently
  • No prior AI or machine learning experience required — training support will be provided

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality evaluation, or AI training workflows
  • Background in academic research, technical writing, or curriculum development
  • Familiarity with mathematical proof-writing and formal problem construction
  • Experience working across multiple mathematical subfields

Why Join Us

  • Work on genuinely cutting-edge AI projects alongside the world's leading research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when, where, and how much suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
  • Make a direct, lasting impact on how AI understands and applies advanced mathematics
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
