About this job

This is a remote, hourly contract role for physicists who want to help AI models reason through hard science problems. The work centers on writing challenging physics problems with worked solutions and on checking how AI systems handle them, from undergraduate to PhD level. No prior AI background is needed, only strong physics knowledge and clear written communication.

What you'll do

  • Design advanced physics problems across mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics and related areas.
  • Write rigorous, step-by-step solutions that show clear logical reasoning.
  • Evaluate AI-generated answers for scientific accuracy and depth of reasoning.
  • Collaborate with researchers to build and refine physics benchmarks.
