Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems.

Turing helps customers in two ways:
Working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for companies.

Role Overview:

• In this role, you will be working on projects to help fine-tune large language models (like ChatGPT) using your strong analytical and english comprehension skills.
• The ideal candidate should have a solid foundation in Physics, particularly at the level expected in engineering entrance exams, as well as graduate or PhD-level programs.
• You should be able to break down complex Physics concepts into simple, clear explanations and work efficiently.
• The projects will also help you learn how to leverage AI to be a better analyst. This is your chance to future-proof your career in an AI-first world!

What does day-to-day look like:

• Design and solve challenging Physics problems to probe the limitations of large language models.
• Create clear, high-quality, step-by-step solutions with well-articulated reasoning.
• Collaborate with LLM researchers to align problems with evaluation goals, especially in areas where models typically struggle (e.g., abstraction, multi-step reasoning, symbolic manipulation).
• Help define new evaluation benchmarks based on Physics curricula spanning early undergraduate to PhD-level topics.

Requirements:

• Analytical
  
  Skills:
  
  Good research and analytical skills
• Feedback
  
  Skills:
  
  Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations.
• Creative Thinking:
  Creative and lateral thinking abilities.
• Communication:
  Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills in a remote setting.
• Independence:
  Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting.
• Technical Setup:
  Desktop/Laptop set up with a good internet connection.

Prefered Qualification:

• Candidates currently pursuing a Master’s/Ph.D./Postdoctoral degree in Physics, Applied Physics, or a related field are eligible and encouraged to apply.
• Ability to analyze and solve complex physics problems with a structured and logical approach.
• Ability to explain physics concepts clearly using simple language, visuals, and physics reasoning.

Perks of Freelancing With Turing:

• Work in a fully remote environment.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies.
• Potential for contract extension based on performance and project needs.

Evaluation Process (approximately 80-90 mins) :

• Shortlisted candidates will be sent an automated analytical challenge (approximately 30 mins)
• Once you clear the challenge, you will be redirected to a Physics assessment (approximately 30 minutes) followed by a language proficiency assessment (approximately 20 minutes).
• Once you clear these online assessments, you are ready to go!
• The contract duration will range from a minimum of one week up to a maximum of three months.
• Maximum of 30 hours/week is allowed
• This contract may require some overlap with UTC-8:00 (2-5 hrs/day) America/. To be confirmed closer to the onboarding date

This is a freelance/contractor position that is paid on a per-hour basis. You also must be authorized to work in the United States, and we will not be providing visa sponsorship since this is a 1099 contract opportunity. However, if you are an international student, you may be able to sign up if you are on a visa. You should contact your tax/immigration advisor with specific questions regarding your circumstances.

We are unable to provide any documentation supporting employment at this time.
