Overview
micro1 seeks computational mathematicians, statisticians, and optimization specialists with prior paid experience in AI training or model evaluation. You will design challenging technical tasks, assess model-generated code and reasoning, and set objective standards for correct solutions. The work centers on computational mathematics, statistics, and optimization, using Python and related tools. This is a fully remote contractor role with flexible hours, requiring at least 15 hours per week.
What You'll Do6
- Design realistic computational mathematics and statistics problems that test advanced AI models.
- Write clear task instructions, set up reproducible environments, and provide reference solutions and evaluation rubrics.
- Review model-produced proofs, calculations, code, models, and optimizations for correctness.
- Spot logical flaws, invalid assumptions, numerical instability, incorrect statistical methods, and reproducibility issues.
- Create objective criteria to judge whether a solution is correct.
- Validate that numerical results, statistical outputs, and optimization solutions meet project standards.
Requirements5
- Paid experience training, evaluating, benchmarking, or improving AI systems on mathematical or technical tasks.
- Strong practical Python programming skills.
- Deep knowledge in at least one mathematical specialization such as applied mathematics, scientific computing, operations research, optimization, formal mathematics, theorem proving, probability, statistics, numerical methods, or mathematical modeling.
- Hands-on experience with computational methods for numerical analysis, optimization, statistics, theorem proving, modeling, or scientific computing.
- Public evidence of skill, such as peer-reviewed publications or preprints, public mathematical or optimization code, research profiles (Google Scholar, ORCID, arXiv), open-source contributions, competition results, or reproducible notebooks and benchmarks.
Preferred Qualifications6
- Experience creating AI-training tasks, reference answers, rubrics, graders, or benchmark problems.
- Experience reviewing other AI trainers' technical submissions.
- A master's degree, PhD, or equivalent record of substantial computational work.
- Familiarity with NumPy, SciPy, SymPy, pandas, Pyomo, OR-Tools, Lean, Coq, or similar tools.
- Experience validating numerical solutions, statistical results, optimization outputs, or formal proofs.
- Availability to start immediately.
Who Should Apply
Computational mathematicians, statisticians, or optimization experts who have already done paid AI-training or model-evaluation work and can show public technical evidence. You should be comfortable with Python and at least one mathematical specialization, and ready to commit 15+ hours per week.
Salary Insight
Pay ranges from $60 to $120 per hour equivalent, based on accepted tasks. Compensation is output-based: you are paid for tasks that meet project specifications and quality requirements. Task availability and completion time may vary.
