Data Scientist (Masters)
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
- Author ground-truth solutions—build rigorous, step-by-step technical work, including:
- Python/R scripts
- SQL queries
- Mathematical derivations
- Serving as definitive "golden responses" for model training
- Audit AI-generated code—evaluate outputs using:
- Scikit-Learn
- PyTorch
- TensorFlow For technical correctness, efficiency, and best practices
- Identify reasoning failures—catch subtle flaws in AI logic, such as:
- Data leakage
- Overfitting
- Improper handling of imbalanced datasets
- Provide structured feedback to sharpen model reasoning
- Work independently—complete task-based assignments on your own schedule in a fully asynchronous format
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
