About this job

This contract role asks physicists with a PhD to judge and improve the physics material used to train advanced AI systems. The work covers writing hard problems, checking AI-generated solutions for errors, and labeling concepts so models learn the structure of the field. It suits remote experts who can work independently and do not need prior AI experience.

What you'll do

  • Write and refine advanced physics questions across subfields such as classical mechanics and quantum field theory.
  • Review AI-generated solutions to physics problems and identify errors, logical gaps, and conceptual misunderstandings.
  • Annotate and categorize physics problems, concepts, diagrams, and experimental data for model training.
  • Provide clear, structured feedback that helps AI models reason through scientific problems.
