Remote | Mathematics Expert (Master's/Ph.D.)
About The Position
We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for advanced mathematics researchers and graduate-level experts to contribute to large language model evaluation through mathematical problem design, rigorous reasoning, computational analysis, formal theorem proving, and high-quality solution development. Selected professionals will create and solve challenging mathematics problems, evaluate model-generated solutions, develop computational tasks using Python, and contribute to formal proof workflows using Lean. The work spans early undergraduate through Ph.D.-level mathematics and is designed to assess advanced reasoning, abstraction, proof construction, and computational accuracy.
