Key Responsibilities:
- Design original and challenging mathematics problems that push the reasoning capabilities of large language models, particularly in multi-step, abstract, and proof-based contexts.
- Independently solve complex problems and produce detailed, logically structured solutions with clear justifications.
- Review solutions generated by AI models, identify mathematical errors or gaps, and provide precise feedback, annotations, and corrections.
- Contribute to the development of new evaluation benchmarks aligned with Mathematics curricula ranging from early undergraduate to PhD-level topics.
- Develop and validate Python-based computational solutions using approved scientific libraries.
- Work on theorem-prover tasks using Lean, including translating mathematical problems and proofs into formal language and verifying that formal proofs compile correctly.
- Apply advanced mathematical reasoning, problem-solving, computational thinking, and clear written communication to improve and evaluate large language models.
- Design precise, closed-ended prompts, write reliable Python code, verify numerical answers, and provide clear rationales.
- Leverage AI tools to enhance analytical skills and future-proof your career in an AI-driven environment.
Required Qualifications:
- Strong foundation in mathematics equivalent to engineering entrance exams and graduate or PhD-level programs.
- Ability to break down complex mathematical concepts into simple, clear explanations.
- Excellent research and analytical skills.
- Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations.
- Creative and lateral thinking abilities.
- Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills, especially in a remote work setting.
- Self-motivated and capable of working independently.
- Access to a desktop or laptop with a reliable internet connection.
Preferred Qualifications and Benefits:
- Candidates pursuing or holding a Master’s, PhD, or Postdoctoral degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or related fields are encouraged to apply.
- Demonstrated ability to analyze and solve complex math problems using a structured, logical approach.
- Skill in explaining mathematical concepts clearly using simple language, visuals, and examples.
Benefits of Freelancing with Turing:
- Fully remote work environment offering flexibility.
- Opportunity to engage with cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading large language model companies.
- Potential for contract extensions based on performance and project requirements.
Offer Details:
- Minimum commitment of 4 hours per day and at least 20 hours per week, with 4 hours overlapping Pacific Standard Time. Options include 20, 30, or 40 hours per week.
- Engagement as a contractor/freelancer, with no medical or paid leave benefits.
This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to pioneering AI research while honing your mathematical and computational skills in a dynamic, remote setting.
