Job Summary

Mindrift offers remote, project-based opportunities for experienced physicists to design, evaluate, and validate AI-driven physics solutions for leading tech companies. Contributors are engaged as freelancers, participating in short-term projects requiring 10–20 hours per week during active phases. Core responsibilities include problem creation, evaluating AI output, validating results with Python (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy), and improving AI reasoning. Compensation can reach up to $36/hr, varying by project and contribution.

Ideal candidates hold a Physics or Engineering Physics degree and have at least three years of professional physics experience. Strong Python skills for numerical validation and written English proficiency (C1/C2) are required. Professional certifications such as CPhys, EurPhys, or MInstP and international project experience are advantageous. A reliable internet connection is essential.

This freelance opportunity is well-suited for physicists seeking flexible, part-time work in AI development. Tasks and compensation may vary by project; contributors must submit their CV in English and specify their English proficiency during application.

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

What this opportunity involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:

  • Design rigorous physics problems reflecting professional practice;
  • Evaluate AI solutions for correctness, assumptions, and constraints;
  • Validate calculations or simulations using Python (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy);
  • Improve AI reasoning to align with industry-standard logic;
  • Apply structured scoring criteria to multi-step problems.

What we look for

This opportunity is a good fit for physicists with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have: 

  • Degree in Physics or related fields, e.g. Engineering Physics, Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, Optics and Acoustics, etc.
  • 3+ years of professional physics experience
  • Strong written English (C1/C2)
  • Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation
  • Stable internet connection 

Professional certifications (e.g., CPhys, EurPhys, MInstP) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage.
