Job Description

Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

What this opportunity involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:

  • Design rigorous statistics problems reflecting professional practice;
  • Evaluate AI solutions for correctness, assumptions, and constraints;
  • Validate calculations or simulations using Python (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, Statsmodels, and Scikit-learn);
  • Improve AI reasoning to align with industry-standard logic;
  • Apply structured scoring criteria to multi-step problems.

What we look for

This opportunity is a good fit for statisticians with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have: 

  • Degree in Statistics or related fields, e.g. Probability Theory, Mathematical Statistics, Applied Statistics, etc.
  • 3+ years of professional mathematics experience
  • Strong written English (C1/C2)
  • Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation
  • Stable internet connection 

Professional certifications (e.g., PStat, CAP, SAS Certifications) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage.
