Mathematics Researcher (Masters/PhDs)

Mathematics Researcher (Masters/PhDs) - AI Training
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons through the world's most complex problems? We're looking for Mathematics Researchers to help train and improve cutting-edge AI models — designing rigorous problems, evaluating solutions, and pushing AI reasoning to its limits.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for mathematicians who want to do meaningful, intellectually stimulating work on their own schedule. If you hold a Master's or PhD in Mathematics and love the elegance of a well-constructed proof or a cleanly solved problem, this role was made for you.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Develop, solve, and review advanced mathematical problems with real-world relevance and conceptual depth
Apply your expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, discrete mathematics, or related areas to design challenging, rigorous problem statements
Evaluate AI-generated mathematical reasoning and outputs for correctness, clarity, and rigor
Collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers and domain experts to improve model performance
Ensure mathematical precision and depth across all deliverables
Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
