Operations Research & Applied Mathematics Specialist

Use your hands-on experience in operations research, applied mathematics or a related field to write research-level problems for AI models. Remote, flexible contract work. AfterQuery works with leading AI labs to build the expert data that tests and trains AI models. We're looking for operations research and applied mathematics specialists who work with real operational data: the systems you model and optimize, from supply chains and scheduling to physical processes. Requirements Technical: Working knowledge of Python (Gurobi or similar solvers are a plus). Work authorization: Must be able to work as an independent contractor without visa sponsorship. Students on F-1 visas (including OPT/CPT) are not eligible. Preferred Background: a Master's or PhD with industry optimization or modeling work. Hands-on work with real data, rather than purely theoretical work. Contract and pay Flexible, independent-contractor work: $300 per approved task, about 6 hours each (roughly $50 per hour), with no cap on how many tasks you take on. All accepted experts undergo standard background and identity verification.
