Statistician with Python - Freelance AI Trainer
Mindrift offers remote, project-based opportunities for statisticians to support the development of AI systems for major tech clients. Contributors will design statistical problems, evaluate AI-generated solutions, and validate computations using Python (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, Statsmodels, Scikit-learn). Work is flexible (10–20 hours/week during active phases) and pays up to $39/hour depending on experience and project contribution. Participation provides the chance to impact real-world AI, but does not constitute permanent employment.
Ideal candidates have a degree in Statistics or a related field, 3+ years of professional mathematics experience, strong written English proficiency (C1/C2), and advanced Python skills for numerical validation. Experience with international or applied projects, plus relevant certifications (PStat, CAP, SAS), is advantageous. A stable internet connection is required.
Applicants follow a streamlined process: apply, pass qualifications, join projects, and receive compensation. Earning potential and workload vary project to project, offering flexibility for professionals seeking part-time AI engagement.
