Job Title

Role Overview: We are seeking researchers with strong mathematical and analytical backgrounds to assist in fine-tuning and evaluating large language models (LLMs). Your work will help LLMs improve their ability to understand and solve complex math problems, such as multi-step algebra or logic questions. Research Objectives: As a contributor to this research-focused initiative, you may be asked to complete the following or similar tasks: Determine the number of real 5×55/ Times 55×5 symmetric matricesof rank 2 whose entries are only 0 or 1. How many subsets of a 10-element set exist such that the characteristic vector of each subset has Hamming weight exactly 3? How many distinct 10-digit numbers exist where the sum of the digits is divisible by 3, and each digit is either 0 or 1? These tasks are designed to find model weaknesses and improve training and evaluation workflows. Candidate Profile: Academic Background : Enrolled in or completed a PhD/Postdoc in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field. Analytical Skills: Strong ability to solve advanced math problems with clear and structured reasoning. Communication Skills : Clarity in explaining complex topics and providing feedback with precision. Research Independence : Ability to work independently in a remote research environment and participate actively in team discussions.. Technical Setup : Access to a reliable computer and internet setup to participate in remote assignments. Note: This position is open only to candidates who have completed or are currently pursuing a Ph.D.; applications that do not meet this criterion will not be considered. Time Commitment & Contract Details: Commitments Required: at least 4 hours per day and minimum 20 hours per week with 4 hours of overlap with PST. (We have 3 options of time commitment: 20 hrs/week, 30 hrs/week, or 40 hrs/week) Engagement type : Contractor assignment/freelancer (no medical/paid leave) Duration of contract: 1 month; (expected start date isnext week) Selection Process : Task-based assessment for shortlisted candidates, followed by a contract offer with defined timelines and workload. About Turing: Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies, accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems. Turing helps customers in two ways: Working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM, and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for companies. Why work with Turing? Work on research that directly impacts the future of language model performance in mathematics and STEM. Collaborate with a global network of experts shaping next-generation AI benchmarks. Gain exposure to cutting-edge model evaluation strategies in an academic–industry hybrid setting.
