This is a Maths Expert (AI Training Specialist) role with Hatch AI based in Sydney, NSW, Australia
About Hatch AI
Role seniority: intern, graduate, junior, mid level, senior
Role
– This is an expression of interest, not an open job. We are gauging interest from Mathematics PhDs in Australia for upcoming work with a partner AI lab. If your background fits and the work progresses, we will be in touch with full details. Expressing interest is not an application and not a commitment. Candidates that express interest early and meet eligibility requirements will have an advantage if the work progresses. Note: This role is not with Hatch. It is for our partner AI Lab. Hatch sources, screens, and supports the Australian contributors who join.
The role
– Contribute to AI research in flexible, casual, and part-time work. You will use your advanced mathematical training to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand mathematical reasoning, proof construction, and technical problem-solving. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside research, teaching, postdoctoral work, or industry employment.
Flexible schedule, work from anywhere
Open to PhDs and postdocs in Mathematics or closely related fields
Suits people who care about their work and want to shape the future
What you'll be working on
–
This project involves using your experience in mathematics to design rigorous, domain-relevant questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy, logical consistency, and mathematical rigour.



No prior AI or technical experience is required.
Fully remote with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement; most contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.
What we're looking for
–
Doctoral students and graduates (including those currently enrolled in a PhD program or in postdoctoral positions) in Mathematics or closely related fields.
Strong background in advanced physical reasoning, mathematical modelling, theoretical analysis, and quantitative problem-solving across core areas such as classical mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, or related sub-disciplines.
We're also looking for:
Engagement & Motivation
Actively participates, asks questions
Shows interest in the work and in learning the apps/agents
