About the job

We invite you to submit your CV in English, highlighting your proficiency in the language.

Mindrift serves as a bridge connecting experts with project-specific AI roles for top-tier tech firms, concentrating on the evaluation, testing, and enhancement of AI systems. Note: This is a project-based opportunity and not a permanent position.

Project Overview

Each project presents unique challenges, including:

  • Designing innovative computational physics problems that replicate authentic physics research workflows;
  • Formulating problems that necessitate Python programming for resolution (utilizing libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, and Sympy);
  • Ensuring that problems are computationally demanding and cannot be resolved manually within a reasonable timeframe (days/weeks);
  • Creating problems that involve complex reasoning in areas such as mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
  • Grounding problems in genuine research challenges or practical applications within the field of physics;
  • Validating solutions using Python in conjunction with established physics simulation libraries;
  • Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct solutions.

Qualifications We Seek

This role is ideally suited for quantum researchers experienced in Python and open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideal candidates will possess:

  • A degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related fields;
  • Proficiency in Python for numerical validation. Equivalent experience with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, or any domain-specific libraries is acceptable;
  • Over 2 years of relevant professional experience, including applied research or teaching;
  • Expertise in numerical simulation methods;
  • The capability to design problems that reflect real-world physics research workflows;
  • Creativity in problem design across various physics domains;
  • Familiarity with physics modeling and approximation techniques;
  • Strong command of written English (C1+ level).
