Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation isproject-based, not permanent employment.What This Opportunity Involves While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:

  • Design original material engineering problems that simulate real engineering workflows;
  • Create problems requiring Python programming to solve engineering calculations and simulations;
  • Ensure problems are computationally intensive and require numerical methods or iterative solutions;
  • Develop problems involving system design, optimization, and analysis;
  • Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from engineering practice;
  • Verify solutions using Python with standard engineering libraries;
  • Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers

What We Look For This opportunity is a good fit for material scientists & engineers with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:

  • Degree in Material Science or related fields;
  • Python proficiency for numerical validation. MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, Stata or knowledge of any programming language can be equivalent;
  • 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable;
  • Understanding of practical engineering constraints and approximations;
  • Strong written English (C1+)
