STEM Expert
Pay: $80–$150/hour
Location: Global, fully remote
Job Type: Contractor (~15 hours per week)
Schedule: Flexible—you choose the hours and days you work, including weekends if desired
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:
Adjacent scientific or quantitative disciplines may also be considered where the candidate's expertise is directly relevant.
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.
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 expert’s 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 24–48 hours of completing onboarding.
