Description Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency. Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems.
Participation is project-based, not permanent employment. What this opportunity involves While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may: Design original optics problems that simulate real physics research workflows; Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks); Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics; Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from optics & physics practice; Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.
What we look for This opportunity is a good fit for optical engineers open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have: Degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational)



or related fields; 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable; Experience with numerical simulation methods; Ability to design problems that mirror real physics research workflows; Creative thinking in problem design across diverse physics areas; Familiarity with physics modeling and approximation techniques; Strong written English (C1+). How it works Apply → Pass qualification(s) → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get paid Project time expectations For this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10–20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active.
Compensation
On this project, contributors can earn up to
$17 per hour equivalent , depending on their level and pace of contribution. Compensation varies across projec
