What We Do

At Mindrift, innovation meets opportunity. We believe in using the power of collective intelligence to ethically shape the future of AI.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for curious and intellectually proactive contributors who double-check assumptions and play devil’s advocate.

About the Project

You will create complex, realistic tasks that push frontier AI agents to their limits. Think scattered data, conditional procedures, and genuine domain expertise required. You’ll build a detailed version with objective scoring, then write an ambiguous version intended to train the agent to succeed with less hand‑holding. Real expert complexity only. You’re improving the AI tools you’ll eventually use yourself.

Benefits

• Get paid for your expertise, with rates that can go up to $73/hour depending on your skills, experience, and project needs
• Take part in a part‑time, remote, freelance project that fits around your primary professional or academic commitments
• Work on advanced AI projects and gain valuable experience that enhances your portfolio
• Influence how future AI models understand and communicate in your field of expertise

Requirements

• You hold a Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD Degree in Economics or relevant fields with a strong GPA (3.5‑4).
• You have professional industry experience in accounting with a minimum of 3 years in relevant economics fields (Economics Experts, Analysts, researchers, or consultants).
• Your level of English is advanced (C1) or above.
• You are able to write clearly and professionally, including explaining complex tasks in simple, structured language, as well as analyzing and synthesizing information from multiple sources and turning it into accurate, coherent outputs.
• You have excellent analytical thinking and strong attention to detail skills.
• You bring creativity in designing realistic and engaging examples, cases, or workflows based on your domain knowledge.
• You have exposure to LLMs, prompt engineering, or AI‑generated content with some understanding of how scoring or evaluation works in agent testing (precision, coverage, etc.).
• You are ready to learn new methods, able to switch between tasks and topics quickly, and at times work with challenging, complex guidelines.
• Our freelance role is fully remote; you just need a laptop, internet connection, time available, and enthusiasm to take on a challenge.
