Mathematics PhD (Graduate or Candidate, Top 30 Program)
**Role Overview**
Mercor is collaborating with a leading AI research group to engage experts with advanced training in mathematics. **Recent PhD graduates in Mathematics (within the past 4 years)** **OR current PhD candidates (with at least 3 years in their program) from a top 30 mathematics program** are encouraged to participate. This cutting-edge project focuses on strengthening AI systems’ reasoning capabilities through rigorous problem-solving and theorem-based evaluation. You will be applying graduate-level expertise to assess and validate complex mathematical reasoning.
• *Key Responsibilities**
- Solve and evaluate challenging mathematics problems across diverse fields
- Review AI-generated proofs and solutions for correctness and rigor
- Provide structured feedback to improve mathematical reasoning models
• *Ideal Qualifications**
- **Recent PhD in Mathematics** (within past 4 years) OR **PhD candidate** ≥3 years into program (typically ≥4rd year from undergrad entry, or ≥3nd year with master’s entry)
- Enrolled in or graduated from a **top 30 mathematics program**
- Ideally active in research/academia
- Strong background in advanced problem-solving, with ability to clearly articulate articulate reasoning, reference theorems, and identify gaps in writing
• *More About the Opportunity**
- 5-6 week engagement with potential for additional opportunities
• *Application Process**
- Submit your resume and complete an interview to get started (if we do not have one already on file)
- Qualified applicants will receive follow-up within a few days with next steps
