Job Summary

Mindrift offers remote, project-based AI opportunities for engineers, focused on creating, testing, and evaluating complex engineering problems to improve AI systems. Contributors engage on a part-time, non-permanent basis, dedicating an estimated 10–20 hours per week when assigned. Core tasks include designing programming-based computational problems, verifying solutions using Python and standard engineering libraries, and thorough documentation. Compensation is up to $37 per hour, depending on performance and project complexity.

Ideal candidates possess a degree in Electrical Engineering or related field, at least 2 years of relevant experience, and strong proficiency with Python for numerical methods. Equivalent experience in MATLAB, R, C, or related tech stacks is considered. C1+ written English is mandatory. Certifications such as CMME, SAS, or CAP, and international or applied project experience, are a plus.

This role is suited for those seeking flexible, non-permanent engagement with leading tech companies. Application involves a qualification process, after which contributors join projects according to their expertise and availability.

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

What this opportunity involves

While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may: 

  • Design original computational engineering problems that simulate real engineering workflows;
  • Create problems requiring Python programming to solve engineering calculations and simulations;
  • Ensure problems are computationally intensive and require numerical methods or iterative solutions;
  • Develop problems involving system design, optimization, and analysis;
  • Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from engineering practice;
  • Verify solutions using Python with standard engineering libraries;
  • Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.

What we look for

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

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or related fields;
  • Python proficiency for numerical validation. MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, Stata or knowledge of any programming language can be equivalent; 
  • 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable;
  • Understanding of practical engineering constraints and approximations;
  • Strong written English (C1+);
  • Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage.

How it works
