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 original computational physics problems that simulate real physics research workflows; - Create problems requiring Python programming to solve (using Numpy, SciPy, Sympy); - Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks); - Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics; - Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from physics practice; - Verify solutions using Python with standard physics simulation libraries; - Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers. What we look for This opportunity is a good fit for optical engineers with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:   - Degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related fields; - Python proficiency for numerical validation. MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, Stata or knowledge of any programming language can be equivalent; - 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable; - Experience with numerical simulation methods; - Ability to design problems that mirror real physics research workflows; - Creative thinking in problem design across diverse physics areas; - Familiarity with physics modeling and approximation techniques; - Strong written English (C1+). 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 $76 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.

This is a fully remote role for candidates who are based outside of the New York Metropolitan area. For those located in the area, we encourage you to consider our hybrid work arrangement (1-2 days a week in our NYC office). That said, we value flexibility and if you have a different preference, please do not let that deter you from applying – let’s talk about it! Applicants must be authorized to work for any employer in the United States. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of any employment-based visas at this time. (e.g., H-1B, TN, visa transfer, green card sponsorship, etc.) Energy storage is the key to unlocking a future where our world is powered by renewable resources. At Convergent Energy and Power, our mission is to make the electrical grid cleaner, more reliable, and less expensive by leveraging state-of-the-art energy storage and distributed generation technologies. Convergent’s Software and Data Science team owns applications that optimize the performance and control of a rapidly growing 250+ MWh fleet of energy storage and solar assets. We are a small team that blends diligent product management with rapid, fail-fast execution. Our areas of focus cover three main applications – SCADA/controls, performance analytics, and dispatch optimization, as well as a foundational data platform. As the team’s Principal SCADA Engineer, you will be the technical owner of systems that directly control Convergent’s storage and solar assets. You will build the roadmap, define the architecture, and lead execution, all to ensure reliability, security, and scalability as our fleet expands. This work includes extensive collaboration with Software and Operations leadership to ensure strategic alignment. In addition, you are trusted to operate with high accountability and independence, making critical technical decisions that impact system availability, cybersecurity posture, and fleet-wide operational performance.
