Lean Formalization Engineer (Remote)

Alignerr Corp.; Austin (CO); À distance; USD 55 000 - 117 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Alignerr is seeking a Mathematical Formalization Specialist to translate informal proofs into Lean and related proof systems, pushing machine-verifiable mathematics forward in AI research. This fully remote hourly contract role emphasizes precision, readability, and scalable formalizations across proof assistants.

The ideal candidate holds a Master’s or higher in Mathematics or related fields, with hands-on Lean experience (Lean 3/4) and familiarity with Coq, Isabelle/HOL, or Agda.

Qualifications

• Master's degree or higher in Mathematics, Logic, Theoretical Computer Science, or a closely related field.
• Strong foundation in rigorous proof writing across algebra, analysis, topology, logic, or discrete mathematics.
• Hands-on experience with Lean (Lean 3 or Lean 4), Coq, Isabelle/HOL, Agda, or a comparable formal proof system — Lean strongly preferred.
• Genuine enthusiasm for formal verification, proof assistants, and the future of mechanized mathematics.
• Ability to translate dense informal arguments into clean, structured, machine-verifiable proofs.

Responsabilités

• Translate informal mathematical proofs into Lean (and related proof systems) with precision, clarity, and structural elegance.
• Analyze generic and domain-specific proofs to identify gaps, hidden assumptions, and formalizable sub-structures.
• Build formalizations that stress-test the limits of existing proof assistants — especially where automation fails.
• Collaborate with researchers to design and refine strategies for improving formal verification pipelines.
• Develop readable, reproducible proof scripts aligned with mathematical best practices and proof assistant idioms.
• Advise on proof decomposition, lemma selection, and structuring techniques for formal models.
