Remote Physics AI Trainer; PhD
Job Description & How to Apply Below
Role Overview :
We are looking for researchers with strong Physics and analytical backgrounds to help fine-tune and evaluate large language models (LLMs). Your work will help LLMs get better at understanding and solving complex physics problems, such as multi-step conceptual or quantitative questions in areas like mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum theory.
Research Objectives
As a contributor to this research-focused initiative, you may be asked to complete the following or similar tasks:
An electron is emitted radially from the surface of a long, current-carrying cylindrical conductor. Due to the magnetic field generated by the current, determine the maximum radial distance the electron reaches from the conductor's axis.
A high-energy pion travels through a material, losing energy at a constant rate. Given its rest mass and proper lifetime, calculate the probability that it decays within a certain distance from its origin.
These tasks are designed to find model weaknesses and improve training and evaluation workflows.
Candidate Profile
Academic Background: Enrolled in or completed a PhD/Postdoc in Physics, Applied Physics, or a related field.
Analytical
Skills:
Strong ability to solve advanced physics problems with clear and structured reasoning.
Communication
Skills:
Clarity in explaining complex topics and providing feedback with precision.
Research Independence: Ability to work independently in a remote research environment and participate actively in team discussions.
Technical Setup: Access to a reliable computer and internet setup to participate in remote assignments.
Note:
This position is open only to candidates who have completed or are currently pursuing a Ph.D.; applications that do not meet this criterion will not be considered.
Time Commitment & Contract Details
Commitments Required : at least 4 hours per day and minimum 20 hours per week with 4 hours of overlap with PST. (We have 3 options of time commitment: 20 hrs/week, 30 hrs/week, or 40 hrs/week)
Engagement type :
Contractor assignment/freelancer (no medical/paid leave)
Duration of contract : 1 month; [expected start date is next week]
Selection Process: Task-based assessment for shortlisted candidates, followed by a contract offer with defined timelines and workload.
