About the Role

Design and solve advanced math problems to evaluate language models.

What You'll Do

  • Design original and challenging mathematics problems that test the reasoning limits of large language models, especially in multi-step, abstract, and proof-based settings.
  • Solve problems independently and write detailed, logically structured solutions with clear justifications.
  • Review model-generated solutions, identify mathematical errors or missing arguments, and provide precise feedback, annotations, and corrections..
  • Contribute to defining new evaluation benchmarks based on Mathematics curricula spanning from early undergraduate to PhD-level topics.
  • Develop and validate Python-based solutions for computational tasks using approved scientific libraries.
  • Work on theorem-prover tasks using Lean, including translating mathematical problems and proofs into formal language, verifying that formal proofs compile correctly.

You're a Good Fit If You

  • Required skills: Algebra, Calculus & Analysis, Geometry & Topology
  • Analytical Skills: Good research and analytical skills
  • Feedback Skills: Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations.
  • Creative Thinking: Creative and lateral thinking abilities.
  • Communication: Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills in a remote setting.
  • Independence: Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting.
  • Technical Setup: Desktop/Laptop set up with a good internet connection.
  • Candidates pursuing a Master’s/Ph.D./Postdoctoral degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field are eligible and encouraged to apply.
  • Ability to analyze and solve complex math problems with a structured and logical approach.
