Mathematics Researcher (Masters/PhDs)

Mathematics Researcher (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training

About The Role

What if your deep knowledge of mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons through the world's most complex problems We're looking for Mathematics Researchers to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models — designing rigorous problems, stress-testing mathematical reasoning, and ensuring AI gets the hard stuff right.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for people who think precisely, love a good problem, and want their expertise to have real-world impact at scale.

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

What You'll Do

• Develop, solve, and critically review advanced mathematical problems with real-world relevance
• Apply your expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to design complex, meaningful problem statements
• Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning for correctness, rigor, and depth
• Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to push the boundaries of AI's mathematical capabilities
• Ensure mathematical clarity and precision across all deliverables
• Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
  
  

Who You Are
