‘amatur’ In the sense of a person undertaking work without being paid for it; like how Olympic atheletes traditionally were non-professionals (not being paid to be atheletes as their career).
‘Amatuer’ is sometimes used as an epithet to mean ‘novice/untrained’, but in mathematics the usual term is ‘lay’.
