• Experience in machine learning model development, experimentation, or quantitative research.
• Background in predictive analytics, statistical modeling, causal inference, or applied machine learning.
• Experience designing experiments and evaluating model performance.
• Familiarity with AI systems, model evaluation, or data-centric AI workflows.
• Based in an English-speaking country.
• Strong ability to communicate complex quantitative concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.

Compensation

• $245–$280/hour
• Remote contract engagement
• Flexible schedule
• Project-based work

Additional Details

• Fully remote opportunity.
• 100 openings available.
• Flexible workload with no fixed schedule.
• Applications reviewed on a rolling basis.
• No prior AI experience required.
• Work focuses on evaluating and improving AI capabilities in statistics, machine learning, experimentation, and quantitative reasoning.
