Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment. What this opportunity involves While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may: - Design graduate- and industry-level automotive engineering problems grounded in real practice; - Evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, assumptions, and engineering logic; - Validate analytical or numerical results using Python (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas); - Improve AI reasoning to align with first principles and accepted engineering standards; - Apply structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem solving. What we look for This opportunity is a good fit for automotive engineers with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:  - Degree in Automotive Engineering or related fields, e.g. Mechatronics, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, etc. - 3+ years of professional automotive engineering experience - Strong written English (C1/C2) - Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation - Stable internet connection  Professional certifications (e.g., PE, CEng, PMP) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage. How it works Apply → Pass qualification(s) → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get paid Project time expectations For this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10–20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active. Compensation On this project, contributors can earn up to $55 per hour equivalent, depending on their level and pace of contribution. Compensation varies across projects depending on scope, complexity, and required expertise. Please note that other projects on the platform may offer different earning levels based on their requirements.

Who we are At Twelve Labs, we are pioneering the development of cutting-edge multimodal foundation models that have the ability to comprehend videos just like humans do. Our models have redefined the standards in video-language modeling, empowering us with more intuitive and far-reaching capabilities, and fundamentally transforming the way we interact with and analyze various forms of media. With a remarkable $107 million in Seed and Series A funding, our company is backed by top-tier venture capital firms such as NVIDIA’s NVentures, NEA, Radical Ventures, and Index Ventures, and prominent AI visionaries and founders such as Fei-Fei Li, Silvio Savarese, Alexandr Wang and more. Headquartered in San Francisco, with an influential APAC presence in Seoul, our global footprint underscores our commitment to driving worldwide innovation. We are a global company that values the uniqueness of each person’s journey. It is the differences in our cultural, educational, and life experiences that allow us to constantly challenge the status quo. We are looking for individuals who are motivated by our mission and eager to make an impact as we push the bounds of technology to transform the world. Join us as we revolutionize video understanding and multimodal AI. About the Role As a Research Scientist on the Public Sector team, you will adapt and deploy TwelveLabs' video AI capabilities - including our multimodal foundation model - for mission critical government applications. This role focuses on applying our video intelligence technology to classified and government-specific use cases, operating within on-premises, GovCloud, and air-gapped environments. You will be the dedicated research scientist for the Public Sector team, bridging TwelveLabs' cutting-edge multimodal AI research and the unique requirements of U.S. federal, defense, and intelligence community customers. In this role, you will: - Adapt TwelveLabs' video understanding and multimodal models for government-specific use cases (defense, intelligence analysis, federal records management) - Support deployment of models in air-gapped, GovCloud, and on-premises environments with strict compliance requirements - Develop evaluation methodologies and data strategies specific to public sector applications - Ensure all model deployments meet government security standards (FedRAMP, DoD SRG, FIPS) - Work closely with Solutions Engineering to translate customer requirements into technical implementations You may be a good fit if you have: - Strong research experience in areas such as: multimodal understanding, large language models, representation learning, computer vision, or domain adaptation - Experience operationalizing AI/ML in DoD or Intelligence Community - Proficiency in Python and PyTorch - Experience deploying ML models in production environments - Understanding of air-gapped / disconnected environment constraints - Active Top Secret clearance or ability to obtain - PhD or Master's in Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field Strong candidates may also have: - Active TS/SCI clearance - Experience operationalizing AI/ML in DoD or Intelligence Community - Experience with government deployment requirements (FedRAMP, FIPS, air-gapped networks) - Background in video understanding or video-language models - Publications in top conferences (CVPR, NeurIPS, etc.) Candidates must be able to travel up to 10% of the time annually to attend conferences, off-site meetings, and other business-related events as required by the role. This role may require participation in on-site interviews and/or completion of in-person onboarding processes.
