[Hiring] STEM Expert @24-MAG

1wk ago - 24-MAG is hiring a remote STEM Expert. πŸ’Έ Salary: $100–$150/hour πŸ“Location: Worldwide

Role Description

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for experienced STEM and scientific-domain professionals with deep expertise in at least one technical field and strong scientific reasoning, quantitative problem-solving, data analysis, and Python skills to contribute to an advanced AI training and technical evaluation project.

Selected professionals will:

  • Solve, review, and validate challenging scientific or mathematical problems within their area of expertise.
  • Develop reproducible reference solutions.
  • Assess AI-generated answers for technical correctness.

Key Responsibilities

  • Scientific & Technical Problem Solving
    • Solve complex scientific, mathematical, or technical problems within your primary area of expertise.
    • Apply rigorous reasoning to assumptions, constraints, edge cases, and potential sources of error.
    • Develop technically defensible solutions grounded in appropriate scientific principles.
    • Interpret equations, experimental results, datasets, technical diagrams, or scientific literature where relevant.
    • Perform sanity checks to ensure analytical and numerical results are physically or mathematically plausible.
  • AI-Generated Solution Evaluation
    • Review AI-generated technical answers for factual, mathematical, and scientific correctness.
    • Identify incorrect assumptions, reasoning errors, missing constraints, and subtle technical mistakes.
    • Assess whether conclusions are adequately supported by calculations, evidence, or scientific reasoning.
    • Compare alternative solution approaches and determine which methods are most appropriate.
    • Explain corrections and technical weaknesses clearly and precisely.
  • Python & Scientific Computation
    • Use Python for scientific computation, data analysis, simulations, or solution validation.
    • Apply relevant tools such as NumPy, SciPy, pandas, SymPy, Jupyter, or domain-specific scientific libraries.
    • Develop reproducible computational workflows supporting analytical conclusions.
    • Validate calculations through numerical or symbolic methods where appropriate.
    • Document computational reasoning sufficiently for independent review.
  • Reference Solutions & Technical Communication
    • Develop clear, reproducible reference solutions for complex STEM problems.
    • Document assumptions, methods, calculations, and final conclusions systematically.
    • Explain technical concepts and corrections in clear written language.
    • Distinguish well-supported conclusions from uncertain or unsupported claims.
    • Maintain strong standards of accuracy, reproducibility, and technical clarity across deliverables.

Qualifications

  • Deep expertise in at least one relevant STEM or scientific domain.
  • Relevant disciplines may include Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, Earth Science, Geoscience, Environmental Science, Robotics, or closely related quantitative fields.
  • Practical proficiency with Python.
  • Strong scientific, mathematical, or quantitative problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to reason carefully about assumptions, constraints, edge cases, and sources of error.
  • Experience validating, reviewing, or troubleshooting scientific or technical work.
  • Ability to interpret quantitative data, technical material, and scientific evidence.
  • Strong written communication skills and ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly.
  • Expertise may come from academic research, industry, teaching, engineering, independent technical work, or other demonstrated professional experience.
  • A specific degree or fixed number of years of experience is not required where strong domain expertise can otherwise be demonstrated.
  • No prior experience in AI training or model evaluation is required.

Engagement Details

  • Part-time independent contractor engagement.
  • Fully remote and open to candidates worldwide.
  • Compensation: $100–$150/hour.
  • Expected commitment: approximately 15 hours per week.
  • Schedule is flexible, including the option to work evenings or weekends.
  • Compensation is output-based, with payment made for tasks that meet project specifications.
  • Minimum submission requirements apply.
  • Work will involve scientific problem solving, AI-output evaluation, Python-based analysis, validation, and reference-solution development.
  • The selection process may include screening questions, an approximately 30-minute AI interview, and hiring-manager review.
  • Selected professionals should be prepared to begin their first task within approximately 24–48 hours of completing onboarding.
  • Roles are typically filled within approximately 48 hours.
  • Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, research group, or other third party.
