Job description

Mathematics Researcher (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training

What if your expertise in advanced mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons through the world's most complex problems? We're looking for Mathematics Researchers with Masters or PhD-level training to help build and refine the mathematical reasoning capabilities of cutting-edge AI models.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You'll work asynchronously alongside leading AI researchers — applying deep mathematical knowledge to challenges that genuinely push the boundaries of what AI can do.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

• Develop, solve, and review advanced mathematical problems with real-world relevance and rigorous structure

• Work independently on task-based assignments at your own pace

Who You Are

• Holder of a Master's or PhD in Mathematics or a closely related field
• Deep expertise in one or more of: algebra, calculus, statistics, or discrete mathematics
• Comfortable writing and running code in Python, MATLAB, or Mathematica for research or problem-solving
• Exceptionally detail-oriented — you notice when a proof doesn't hold and know exactly why
• Strong written communicator who can explain complex concepts clearly and precisely
• Fluent in English

Nice to Have

• Prior experience with data annotation, data quality evaluation, or AI model assessment
• Background in mathematical research, academic publishing, or technical writingFamiliarity with AI tools or machine learning concepts
• Experience collaborating with interdisciplinary research teams

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside the world's leading research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — structure your work around your life, not the other way around
• Freelance autonomy with the substance of meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
• Make a direct, lasting impact on how AI understands and applies advanced mathematics
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
