• Interact with the technical staff to help improve the design of efficient annotation tools.
• Choose problems from pure math subdomains aligned with your expertise, focusing on areas like abstract algebra, real/complex analysis, topology, and graph theory where you can confidently provide detailed solutions and evaluate model responses.
• Interpret, analyze, and execute tasks based on given instructions.

Requirements

• Must have either:
  • (a) a Master’s or PhD in Mathematics with a specialization in a subdomain of pure mathematics (there is a separate position for applied math), or
  • (b) a medal in an International Math Olympiad (IMO) or similar level math competition.
• Proficiency in reading and writing in informal and professional English.
• Strong ability to navigate various information resources and databases.
• Outstanding communication, interpersonal, analytical, and organizational capabilities.
• Solid reading comprehension skills combined with the capacity to exercise autonomous judgment even when presented with limited data/material.
