Data Scientist (Masters) — AI Data Trainer
About The Role
What if your deep knowledge of machine learning, statistical inference, and data engineering could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems reason and respond?
We're looking for Masters-level data scientists to challenge, evaluate, and improve cutting-edge AI models — designing hard problems, authoring gold-standard solutions, and catching the subtle reasoning failures that only a true domain expert would spot.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI industry experience required — just serious data science expertise and a sharp analytical mind.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design Advanced Challenges — Craft complex, domain-rich data science problems spanning hyperparameter optimization, Bayesian inference, cross-validation strategies, dimensionality reduction, and more
- Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Build rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions — Python/R scripts, SQL queries, mathematical derivations — that serve as definitive "golden responses" for model training
- Audit AI-Generated Code — Evaluate AI outputs using libraries like Scikit-Learn, PyTorch, and TensorFlow for technical correctness, efficiency, and best practices
- Identify Reasoning Failures — Catch subtle flaws in AI logic — data leakage, overfitting, improper handling of imbalanced datasets — and provide structured feedback that sharpens model reasoning
- Work Independently — Complete task-based assignments on your own schedule, fully asynchronously
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who You Are
- Pursuing or holding a Masters or PhD in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or a heavily quantitative field
- Strong foundational command of supervised and unsupervised learning, deep learning, and statistical modeling
