micro1 is looking for Computational Mathematicians, Statisticians, and Optimization Experts with prior professional AI-training or model-evaluation experience to support a project focused on improving advanced AI systems.
You will use your mathematical expertise and programming skills to create challenging technical tasks, evaluate model-generated code and reasoning, identify failures, and establish objective standards for correct solutions. This role is intended for candidates who have completed substantive AI-training work involving mathematical, statistical, or optimization content.
What You’ll Work On
- Create realistic computational mathematics and statistics tasks that challenge advanced AI models.
- Develop task instructions, reproducible environments, reference solutions, and evaluation criteria.
- Evaluate model-generated proofs, calculations, code, models, optimizations, and technical deliverables.
- Identify logical errors, invalid assumptions, numerical instability, incorrect statistical methods, or reproducibility failures.
Required Qualifications
- Prior paid experience training, evaluating, benchmarking, or improving AI systems on mathematical or technical tasks.
- Strong practical proficiency with Python.
- Deep expertise in at least one relevant mathematical specialization.
- Hands-on experience using computational methods for numerical analysis, optimization, statistics, theorem proving, modeling, or scientific computing.
