About this Role
What You'll Do
- Review AI-generated mathematical solutions for correctness, completeness, and logical rigor
- Identify errors in proofs, calculations, and step-by-step reasoning
- Evaluate the clarity and quality of mathematical explanations
- Solve challenging problems spanning algebra, number theory, combinatorics, analysis, probability, and more
- Provide structured feedback that helps AI models improve their mathematical reasoning
- Craft and refine problems that push the boundaries of what AI can handle
- Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule
About the Role
What if your love of mathematics could directly shape how AI reasons about the world's hardest problems? We're looking for sharp mathematical minds to evaluate and improve AI systems tackling complex math — from elegant proofs to challenging olympiad-style problems. Your expertise will help build AI that reasons with rigor, clarity, and precision.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
Who You Are
- Pursuing or holding a Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or a quantitative field
- Deeply comfortable working across multiple areas of mathematics
- Strong problem-solving instincts with sharp mathematical intuition
- Able to communicate complex ideas clearly and precisely in writing
- Detail-oriented and committed to accuracy
- No prior AI experience required — we'll get you up to speed
Nice to Have
- Competition math background (PMO, APMO, IMO, Putnam, or similar)
- Graduate-level coursework in mathematics or a related field
- Experience tutoring, teaching, or writing mathematical content
- Familiarity with LaTeX or other mathematical typesetting tools
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs
- Apply your mathematical expertise to one of the most intellectually stimulating challenges in tech
- Fully remote and flexible — work from anywhere, on your own schedule
- Freelance autonomy with access to a global community of elite quantitative thinkers
- Variety of problem domains keeps the work engaging and intellectually rewarding
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension based on performance
Requirements
- Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
- Reliable high-speed internet connection

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the assessment actually like?
Notoriously strict. Alignerr uses TestGorilla for role-specific timed tests — a blank coding environment for engineers, rigorous grammar and fact-checking for writers. There is almost no hand-holding. The critical catch: this is essentially a one-shot process. Fail or abandon the assessment, and you are typically locked out of that role permanently with no option to retake.
How quickly can I start earning after I pass?
Not immediately. Even after passing the assessment and completing identity verification (via Persona) and billing setup (via Deel), you may sit in a waiting pool for weeks or months. You only start earning when a project matching your specific skills launches and you are officially assigned. Do not plan around Alignerr income until you are actively on a project.
Is there a community?
Yes — and it is one of Alignerr's genuine strengths. Once assigned to a project, you are added to Slack channels where you can ask questions, get rubric clarifications from admins, and talk to other AI trainers. This is rare in AI training and makes a real difference when guidelines are ambiguous or change mid-project.
What does the work actually look like?
It is practical, hands-on data work. You might be recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. The tasks are designed to be short and distinct—typically 5-60 minutes per task.
How flexible is the schedule?
Extremely. This is true "log in and work" flexibility. You can usually work for 20 minutes or 4 hours depending on your availability. There are rarely minimum hour requirements, making it ideal for side income.
Is there an interview?
Usually, no. Hiring for these roles is almost entirely based on passing an automated assessment or "qualification" task. If you pass the test, you get access to the work.
What is the barrier to entry?
Alignerr is known for difficult technical assessments. You must pass a timed test in your specific domain (e.g., Python, Physics, or Language) before you are eligible for any paid projects.
