Description

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for accomplished mathematics researchers experienced in research-level problem authoring, proof construction, proof verification, formalization, conjecture exploration, and advanced mathematical reasoning evaluation.This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on advanced mathematical reasoning, research-grade problem design, proof review, model output evaluation, formalization tasks, and high-quality project execution. Selected professionals will apply frontier-level mathematical judgment to author and review challenging problems, evaluate complex reasoning, and identify subtle mathematical errors that require working researcher-level expertise.Key ResponsibilitiesProfessionals in this role may contribute to:Research-Level Mathematics Problem AuthoringAuthor challenging mathematics problems across pure mathematics, applied mathematics, theoretical computer science, statistics, or adjacent research areasDevelop tasks involving proof construction, proof verification, problem-solving, formalization, and conjecture explorationCreate materials that require research-level mathematical reasoning rather than textbook-level pattern recognitionDesign problems with clear expected reasoning paths, rigorous standards, and high technical depthProof Review & Mathematical Output EvaluationEvaluate mathematical outputs for correctness, rigor, clarity, and completenessIdentify subtle errors such as unjustified steps, misapplied hypotheses, hand-waved lemmas, invalid reductions, or plausible but incorrect proofsAssess whether proposed arguments meet the standards of working research mathematicsProvide structured feedback explaining mathematical strengths, weaknesses, and required correctionsResearch Calibration & Quality ReviewCollaborate with a small program team and other senior contributors on task quality and difficulty calibrationReview evaluation materials for consistency, rigor, and research relevanceHelp surface areas where current mathematical reasoning systems failMaintain high standards of accuracy, precision, and intellectual integrity across submitted workIdeal ProfileStrong candidates may have:Active or recent research role as a PhD candidate, postdoc, instructor, faculty member, principal researcher, industry research mathematician, or comparable contributorDeep research expertise in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, mathematical physics, theoretical computer science, statistics, or a related fieldStrong publication record, especially in leading mathematics journals, top specialty journals, or top-tier adjacent venuesDoctoral or postdoctoral training at a highly regarded mathematics, STEM, or theoretical research institutionResearch honors, fellowships, grants, competition distinctions, or comparable signals of exceptional mathematical depthAbility to evaluate complex proofs and identify subtle mathematical issues quicklyExcellent written communication skills and strong attention to detailEducational BackgroundPhD, advanced doctoral training, postdoctoral experience, or equivalent research output in mathematics or a closely related field is strongly preferredOutstanding senior PhD students and recent graduates with strong publication records may also be a strong fitResearch backgrounds in number theory, algebra, algebraic geometry, topology, analysis, PDEs, probability, combinatorics, dynamical systems, logic, representation theory, mathematical physics, theoretical computer science, or statistics are highly relevantNice to HaveFirst-author, sole-author, or otherwise substantial research publications in highly selective mathematics or adjacent research venuesCompetitive fellowships, research awards, named grants, olympiad-level distinctions, Putnam-level distinctions, or comparable research signalsExperience reviewing proofs, supervising research, designing advanced mathematical problems, or evaluating formal reasoningFamiliarity with proof formalization, mathematical logic, proof assistants, or structured mathematical verification workflowsAvailability for approximately 8–20 hours per week depending on project scopeWhy This OpportunityApply research-level mathematical expertise to structured remote consulting workContribute to high-quality mathematical reasoning evaluation, proof review, and problem authoringWork on flexible assignments aligned with your research area and mathematical depthUse your ability to identify subtle reasoning flaws that only an experienced mathematician would catchRemote structure with competitive hourly compensationContract DetailsIndependent contractor roleFully remote with flexible schedulingEligible professionals should be based in the United States depending on project needsExpected commitment of approximately 8–20 hours per week depending on project availabilityOngoing project structure with continuation depending on program needs and expertise alignmentCompetitive rates between $100–$160 per hour depending on research seniority, credentials, and project scopeWeekly payments via Stripe or WiseProjects may be extended, shortened, or adjusted depending on scope and performanceWork will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institutionAbout the PlatformThis opportunity is available through 24-MAG LLC.
