This role invites PhD-level applied physicists to evaluate and improve how AI models reason about physical systems. You will design advanced physics problems, author rigorous solutions, audit AI-generated reasoning for physical consistency, and provide expert feedback to refine model behavior across classical mechanics, electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, and related domains.
This role involves evaluating and improving large language models' understanding of physics by designing advanced problems, authoring ground-truth solutions, and auditing AI-generated reasoning across quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics, and other domains. It is suited for PhD-level applied physicists who want to contribute to AI training while working independently on a flexible schedule.
This role invites mathematical physicists to contribute to a research benchmark in fundamental physics, designed to assess whether cutting-edge AI models can solve real research problems in physics. You will work on specialized challenges in one of four proposed domains (special functions, integrable systems, permutation combinatorics, conformal geometry), creating, solving, reviewing, or validating problems at the level of academic research.
