Why This Role Exists

One of our clients, a leading AI research organization, is working to improve the quality, usefulness, and reliability of general-purpose conversational AI systems. These systems are deployed across professional and everyday contexts, and their effectiveness depends on accuracy, clarity, and sound reasoning.

In physics-related use cases, AI systems must demonstrate strong theoretical grounding, quantitative rigor, and precise scientific reasoning. This project focuses on evaluating and improving how models explain, reason about, and respond to physics questions across both foundational and advanced domains.

What You’ll Do

• Write and refine prompts to guide AI model behavior in physics contexts
• Evaluate large language model (LLM) responses to physics-related queries for conceptual accuracy, mathematical correctness, and reasoning quality
• Conduct fact-checking using authoritative sources and domain expertise
• Annotate model responses by identifying strengths, weaknesses, and factual or conceptual errors
• Assess clarity, structure, and suitability of explanations for different audience levels
• Ensure outputs align with conversational standards and evaluation guidelines
• Apply consistent evaluation frameworks, benchmarks, and taxonomies across tasks

Who You Are

• PhD in Physics or a closely related field
• Deep expertise in one or more of the following subdomains:
• Classical Mechanics & Dynamics
• Electromagnetism, Optics & Signals
• Thermodynamics & Statistical Physics
• Quantum Physics
• Relativity, Cosmology & High-Energy Physics
• Comfortable working with large language models and understanding real-world usage patterns
• Excellent written communication skills with the ability to clearly explain complex physics concepts
• Strong attention to detail and ability to identify subtle conceptual or mathematical issues
• Experience reviewing, editing, or evaluating technical or academic writing

Nice-to-Have Specialties

• Prior experience with RLHF, model evaluation, or data annotation
• Experience teaching or explaining physics concepts to non-expert audiences
• Familiarity with structured evaluation rubrics, benchmarks, or review frameworks

What Success Looks Like

• You consistently identify conceptual inaccuracies or weak reasoning in physics-related AI outputs
• Your feedback improves rigor, clarity, and correctness of model explanations
• You deliver reliable, reproducible evaluation artifacts that strengthen model performance
• The client’s AI systems are trusted in scientific contexts due to your rigorous evaluations

Why Join This Project

This opportunity allows PhD-level physicists to apply deep scientific expertise to the evaluation and improvement of advanced AI systems. The role is fully remote and flexible, enabling you to contribute to high-impact AI development while maintaining control over your schedule.
