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 Master’s degree, or have experience participating in the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO).

The goal of this project is to create novel, clear, and challenging Olympiad-style physics problems that 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.

• Key Responsibilities

• Write original & advanced IPhO-style physics problems to challenge frontier AI models

• Evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, clarity and style and identify where models fail

• Identify logical flaws, incomplete reasoning, or insufficiently-rigorous proofs

• Provide clear, concise, and correct solutions & chain of thought reasoning using proper LaTeX formatting

• Maintain extremely high standards of precision and problem difficulty

• 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 a Master’s or PhD in physics (or a related field), or are an Olympiad participant or medalist in the IPhO (preferred) or equivalent competitions (RPhO, CPhO, APhO, EuPhO, USAPhO, BPhO, INPhO, JPhO, UPC, IYPT, CUPT).

Other Qualifications

• Deep understanding of your domain’s core theoretical and experimental concepts

• Ability to articulate reasoning and derivations clearly in written form

• Strong ability to evaluate the rigor and complexity of physics problems

• Rigorous attention to detail in verifying solutions

• 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 1-2 days of approval

• Application Process

• Submit your resume or CV highlighting physics background and relevant achievements

• Complete a brief interview (20-30 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.

Contract and Payment Terms

• You will be engaged as an independent contractor.

• This is a fully remote role that can be completed on your own schedule.

• Projects can be extended, shortened, or concluded early depending on needs and performance.

• Your work at will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution.

• Payments are weekly on Stripe or Wise based on services rendered.
