Physics Expert - Ai Research

Job Description

Role Overview

Collaborating with a leading AI research lab on a project to advance frontier physics problem-solving. We are looking for physics experts who hold a PhD or Masters degree, or have experience participating in theInternational Physics Olympiad (IPhO). The goal of this project is tocreate novel, clear, and challenging Olympiad-style physics problemsthat cause the frontier AI models to fail (i.e. generate an incorrect response) and support the training of cutting-edge AI models.

This is a short-term, high impact, remote opportunity for those excited about applying their expertise to frontier AI research, with the possibility of extension based on performance.2. Key Responsibilities

Writeoriginal advanced IPhO-style physicsproblems to challenge frontier AI models

Evaluate AI-generated solutions forcorrectness, clarity and styleand identify where models fail

Identifylogical flaws, incomplete reasoning, or insufficiently-rigorous proofs

Provideclear, concise, and correct solutions chain of thought reasoningusing proper LaTeX formatting

Maintain extremely high standards of precision and problem difficulty3. Required Qualifications

Note: Applicants must be highly proficient in writing and formatting documents using LaTeX

You are a good fit for the project if you have any of the following experiences:

Have aMasters or PhD in physics(or a related field), or are anOlympiad participant or medalistin the IPhO (preferred) or equivalent competitions (RPhO, CPhO, APhO, EuPhO, USAPhO, BPhO, INPhO, JPhO, UPC, IYPT, CUPT).

Other qualifications:

Deep understanding of your domainscore theoretical and experimental concepts

Ability toarticulate reasoning and derivationsclearly in written form

Strong ability to evaluate the rigor and complexity of physics problems

Rigorous attention to detail in verifying solutions4. More About the Opportunity

Expected commitment: 20 hours/week minimum; up to 40 hours/week available

Approximate project length: ~2 months, with extension potential

Rolling start dates; setup typically within 12 days of approval6. Application Process

Submit your resume or CV highlighting physics background and relevant achievements

Complete a brief interview (2030 minutes)

Submit a short form detailing your experience writing problems and competing in physics competitions

Selected applicants will be contacted within a few days with next steps

We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.
