Physics Expert (PhD / Postdoc)
Location: Remote
micro1 is engaging Physics Experts (PhD / Postdoc) to contribute their advanced knowledge to a frontier research-level physics benchmark, supporting a customer’s innovative project. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This engagement spans a range of physics subfields, including mathematical physics, many-body and condensed matter theory, statistical physics, quantum information, and theoretical physics. Contributors may be considered for distinct roles such as Solver, Auditor, or Adjudicator, with assignments based on expertise, seniority, and demonstrable hands-on experience.
Scope of Work
- Produce and validate high-quality solutions to advanced theoretical and mathematical physics problems across multiple subfields.
- Audit, review, and provide constructive feedback on solutions contributed by peers within the physics benchmark.
- Adjudicate complex cases by evaluating conflicting solutions and determining accuracy based on rigorous standards.
- Document methodologies, reasoning, and solutions clearly using LaTeX and other scholarly formats.
- Collaborate asynchronously with project leads and fellow experts to uphold project quality and meet key deliverables.
- Ensure all work reflects up-to-date knowledge of contemporary research and methods in core physics domains.
- Assist in refining benchmark protocols and question sets to enhance the accuracy and relevance of physics evaluations.
