Job summary

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities focusing on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. This Mindrift project focuses on computational chemistry tasks and Python-based validation within a flexible, part-time framework.

Contributors design chemistry-related problems, implement Python solutions (NumPy/SciPy), and verify correct answers. Projects are non-permanent and time-bound, with variable workload based on active phases.

Qualifications

Degree in chemistry or related field.
2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable.
Experience with numerical methods in chemistry.
Familiarity with computational chemistry concepts and methods.
Python proficiency for numerical validation.

Responsibilities

Design original computational chemistry problems that simulate real chemistry research workflows.
Create problems requiring Python programming to solve (using numpy, scipy, chemical libraries).
Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks).
Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in physical chemistry, quantum chemistry, and molecular modeling.
Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from chemistry practice.
Verify solutions using Python with standard computational chemistry approaches.
Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.
