About the job
We invite you to submit your CV in English, and please specify your level of English proficiency.
At Mindrift, we create meaningful connections between experts and project-based AI opportunities in collaboration with top-tier tech companies. Our primary focus is on the testing, evaluation, and enhancement of AI systems. This role involves project-based participation, not permanent employment.
Role Overview
As a contributor, you will engage in various projects that may include:
- Creating original computational physics problems that reflect authentic physics research workflows;
- Designing challenges that necessitate Python programming solutions utilizing frameworks such as Numpy, SciPy, and Sympy;
- Ensuring the problems are computationally intensive and cannot be manually solved within a reasonable timeframe (days/weeks);
- Formulating problems that require complex reasoning in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
- Developing scenarios based on actual research challenges or practical applications in the field of physics;
- Validating solutions using Python along with standard physics simulation libraries;
- Providing clear documentation of problem statements along with verified accurate answers.
Candidate Profile
This opportunity is ideal for physics experts with proficiency in Python, who are open to non-permanent, part-time projects. The ideal candidates will possess:
- A degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related fields;
- Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or any domain-specific libraries is equivalent;
- A minimum of 2 years of professional experience, whether in applied research or teaching;
- Experience with numerical simulation methodologies;
- The ability to design problems that reflect genuine physics research workflows;
- Creativity in problem design across various areas of physics;
- A strong command of physics modeling and approximation techniques;
- Excellent written English skills (C1+).
