AMO Physicist AI Model Training

Apply advanced AMO physics expertise to help train next-generation AI systems on specialized questions involving atomic and optical properties of materials. This remote contract role focuses on delivering clear, technically rigorous input grounded in real-world scientific knowledge. Prior AI experience is not required.

• Provide expert analysis and guidance in atomic, molecular, and optical physics, with emphasis on optical properties of materials.
• Review and discuss ab initio configuration interaction methods used to calculate polarizability in atomic systems.
• Evaluate and critique atomic-structure calculations for ytterbium-171 and ytterbium-174.
• Identify and distinguish sigma and pi transitions in relevant atomic spectra, including the underlying physical principles.
• Take part in adaptive spoken AI interviews, answering one question at a time and using clear, concrete examples from legally shareable research or projects.

• Advanced degree in physics, such as an MS or PhD, or equivalent experience, with a focus on AMO physics or optical properties of materials.
• Experience with ab initio quantum chemistry calculations, particularly configuration interaction approaches for polarizability.
• Deep knowledge of atomic-structure computation techniques applied to Yb-171 and Yb-174.
• Ability to identify and explain sigma versus pi transitions in atomic contexts.
• Strong structured written and verbal scientific communication skills.
