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:

• Write realistic prompts for reference images — as if directing an AI to reproduce the result
• Run prompts through the model and evaluate outputs against professional artistic criteria: medium fidelity, light logic, anatomy, edge control, material differentiation, color system, composition
• Articulate specific, structured failure modes — not just "this looks off" but why it fails and by what standard
• Collect reference images (human-made digital art only, no AI) that represent the ideal expected output for each use case

What we look for
Ideally, contributors will have:

• A professional or semi-professional background in digital art and the ability to produce original artwork without AI tools;
• Extensive hands-on experience with Midjourney (2+ years) and a strong understanding of what high-quality AI art generation looks like in practice;
• The ability to clearly articulate the difference between visually impressive outputs and artistically useful ones;
• Strong image evaluation skills based on professional artistic criteria, such as correct light source logic, anatomical structure, medium-specific behavior, edge hierarchy, and material differentiation;
• Clear written English (C1 or above), with the ability to document failure cases in a structured written form;
• A relevant artistic background, such as concept art, digital illustration, character design, anime/manga art, or art direction with hands-on practice.
