Job description

Overview

This opportunity is only for candidates currently residing in the specified country. Your location may affect eligibility and rates. Please submit your resume in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.

At Mindrift, innovation meets opportunity. We believe in using the power of collective intelligence to ethically shape the future of AI.

What We Do

The Mindrift platform, launched and powered by Toloka, connects domain experts with cutting‑edge AI projects from innovative tech clients. Our mission is to unlock the potential of Generative AI by tapping into real‑world expertise from across the globe.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for curious and intellectually proactive contributors—the kind of person who double‑checks assumptions and plays devil’s advocate.

Are you comfortable with ambiguity and complexity? Does an async, remote, flexible opportunity sound exciting? Would you like to learn how modern AI systems are tested and evaluated?

About the Project

You will create complex, realistic tasks that push frontier AI agents to their limits. Think scattered data, conditional procedures, and genuine domain expertise required. You’ll build a detailed version with objective scoring, then write an ambiguous version intended to train the agent to succeed with less hand‑holding.

How to Get Started

Apply to this post and get the chance to contribute to projects aligned with your skills, on your own schedule. To begin working in production, you’ll need to complete the qualification step and project onboarding, where you’ll get familiar with the guidelines interface and try your first real task with guidance from our quality team. From creating training prompts to refining model responses, you’ll be directly shaping how useful these models become for your own future work.

Requirements

• Hold a Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD Degree in Economics or related fields with a strong GPA (3.5‑4).
• Have professional industry experience in accounting with a minimum of 3 years in relevant economics fields (Economics Experts, Analysts, researchers, or consultants).
• Have an advanced level of English (C1) or above.
• Be able to write clearly and professionally, explaining complex tasks in simple, structured language and synthesizing information from multiple sources into accurate outputs.
• Have excellent analytical thinking and strong attention to detail skills.
• Bring creativity in designing realistic and engaging examples, cases, or workflows based on your domain knowledge.
• Have exposure to LLMs, prompt engineering, or AI‑generated content with some understanding of how scoring or evaluation works in agent testing (precision, coverage, etc.).
• Be ready to learn new methods, able to switch between tasks and topics quickly, and sometimes work with challenging, complex guidelines.
• The role is fully remote, so you just need a laptop, internet connection, time available, and enthusiasm to take on a challenge.

Benefits

• Get paid for your expertise, with rates that can go up to $13/hour depending on your skills, experience, and project needs.
• Take part in a part‑time, remote, freelance project that fits around your primary professional or academic commitments.
• Work on advanced AI projects and gain valuable experience that enhances your portfolio.
• Influence how future AI models understand and communicate in your field of expertise.
