The work
You will investigate research problems in computer science and computational or mathematical physics with help from advanced AI models and agents. The work includes developing algorithms, attempting proofs, running simulations, and checking whether research findings are correct and original.
- Identify open problems, new bounds, and research challenges in your specialty.
- Use AI models and agents for proof attempts, algorithm development, and computational simulations.
- Verify proofs, reproduce numerical results, and use formal tools when useful.
- Compare findings with recent research literature to assess novelty and correctness.
- Write clear reports covering methods, partial results, challenges, and promising research directions.

How it works
You apply here in about two minutes and finish on the hiring platform. The next step is a short AI interview (technical roles include a coding challenge). Passing it is how you qualify for paid tasks, so take it soon after you are invited.
About AI training work
AI training is the human work behind artificial intelligence, including writing and rating model responses, evaluating research outputs, and reviewing code. People with advanced subject knowledge help models produce more accurate and useful results, which is why specialist research work can pay for that expertise.
