STEM Researchers - MSc/PhD (Must own MacBook)

STEM Expert (MSc./PhD)

• Science & Research
• Platform: micro1
• Location: 58 countries

This is a remote, contract role for scientists and quantitative experts who will solve challenging problems in their field and check AI-generated answers for technical accuracy. Much of the work is hands-on Python for calculations and simulations, and candidates are expected to already use coding agents in their workflow. It suits people with deep expertise in at least one core science or mathematics area, whether gained in academia, industry, or independent work.

Advanced STEM Experts (PhD Level): Scientific Reasoning For AI Training

• Science & Research
• Platform: Terac
• Location: United States

This ongoing project hires advanced STEM experts to write graduate-level and PhD-level problems with exact, verifiable answers, helping AI systems improve at rigorous scientific reasoning. Participants create original problems in their own specialty, write detailed step-by-step solutions, and sometimes review AI-generated answers to find reasoning errors. It is aimed at PhD candidates and holders, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty in biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and selected engineering fields.

STEM Expert - Biology & Bioinformatics (PhD)

• Science & Research
• Platform: micro1
• Location: 58 countries

This remote contract role asks a researcher with a PhD in biology or a related field to review, design and critique analysis pipelines for genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and other biological data. The work supports AI benchmarking and helps guide how models learn biological reasoning. It suits experts with hands-on depth in at least one biology subfield who can explain technical results clearly to varied audiences.

Mathematical Physicist (PhD)

• Science & Research
• Platform: Mercor
• Location: United States

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.

Statistical Physics and Thermodynamics Physicist (PhD)

• Science & Research
• Platform: Mercor
• Location: United States

This role involves contributing to the creation and evaluation of research-level physics challenges for a benchmark designed to test the physical reasoning capabilities of AI models. The work involves creating problems, solving them, examining solutions or auditing them in your area of specialization in statistical physics. This role is intended for PhDs in statistical physics with published experience on specific phenomena and who master the corresponding mathematical and computational methods.

Applied Formal Methods Researcher

• Science & Research
• Platform: Alignerr

This role involves translating mathematical proofs into machine-verifiable Lean 4 formalizations for an AI research organization. Mathematicians with formal proof system experience will work on bridging informal mathematical arguments and automated reasoning, identifying gaps in current verification tools and helping advance mechanized mathematics at the intersection of AI and rigorous proof.
