About the Role
What if your expertise in advanced mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons through complex problems — influencing the tools that millions of researchers, engineers, and students will rely on?
We're looking for Mathematics Researchers with graduate-level credentials to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. You'll craft and solve challenging problems, stress-test AI reasoning, and ensure mathematical rigour across a range of advanced topics — from abstract algebra to applied statistics.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for people who think deeply about mathematics and want their expertise to have real-world impact beyond academia.
- 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
- Apply graduate-level expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to design rigorous, complex problem sets
- Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning for correctness, depth, and clarity
- Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to improve model performance
- Ensure mathematical rigour, precision, and conceptual clarity across all deliverables
- Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
- Holds a Master's or PhD in Mathematics or a closely related field
- Deep, 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
- Exceptional written communicator — you can explain complex ideas with precision and clarity
- Naturally detail-oriented with a rigorous, methodical approach to mathematical work
- Currently based in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, or New Zealand
Nice to Have
- Prior experience with data annotation, evaluation systems, or AI training workflows
- Background in applied mathematics, computational research, or quantitative modelling
- Experience writing or reviewing technical mathematical content for publication or instruction
- Familiarity with AI tools or large language model evaluation as an end user
Why Join Us
- Work on frontier AI projects alongside world-leading research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
- Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, intellectually challenging work
- Put your graduate expertise to use in a high-impact, applied setting outside traditional academia
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
