We are looking for highly skilled STEM and scientific-domain experts to contribute to an AI training project involving technical problem-solving scientific reasoning data analysis and Python.

The work involves solving reviewing and validating challenging problems within your area of expertise. A representative task may require analyzing a scientific or mathematical problem developing a rigorous solution using Python to perform calculations or simulations and evaluating whether an AI-generated answer is technically correct.

This is a very coding heavy role. Candidates but have experience using coding agents with python in their workflow.

Candidates are not expected to be experts across every STEM discipline. We are looking for deep expertise in at least one of the following areas:

1. Chemistry
2. Biology
3. Mathematics
4. Physics
5. Earth Science / Geoscience / Environmental Science
6. Robotics

Adjacent scientific or quantitative disciplines may also be considered where the candidates expertise is directly relevant.

1. Solve complex scientific mathematical or technical problems within your domain of expertise.
2. Review AI-generated solutions for factual mathematical and scientific correctness.
3. Identify incorrect assumptions reasoning errors missing constraints and subtle technical mistakes.
4. Develop clear and reproducible reference solutions.
5. Use Python for scientific computation data analysis simulations or solution validation.
6. Interpret equations experimental results datasets technical diagrams or scientific literature where relevant.
7. Perform sanity checks and validate numerical or analytical results.
8. Compare alternative solution approaches and determine whether conclusions are supported by the evidence.
9. Clearly explain technical reasoning and corrections.

1. Strong expertise in at least one relevant STEM or scientific domain.
2. Practical proficiency with Python.
3. Strong scientific mathematical or quantitative problem-solving ability.
4. Ability to reason carefully about assumptions constraints edge cases and sources of error.
5. Ability to explain complex technical concepts and solutions clearly.
6. Experience validating reviewing or troubleshooting technical work.

Relevant Python tools may include NumPy SciPy pandas SymPy Jupyter or domain-specific scientific libraries. No particular Python library is mandatory.

Expertise may come from academic research industry teaching engineering independent technical work or other demonstrated experience. A specific degree or number of years of experience is not strictly required if you can demonstrate strong expertise in your field.

1. Apply to the role and complete the screening questions.
2. Complete an AI interview of approximately 30 minutes.
3. Complete the hiring manager review.

Compensation is output-based. Experts are paid per task that meets the project specifications. The time required to complete each task may vary depending on the experts experience and workflow.

Minimum submission requirements apply.

We typically fill roles within 48 hours and are looking for experts who are ready to begin immediately. If selected you will be expected to start your first task within 2448 hours of completing onboarding.
