About this role

Role Title: Physics Expert (Statistical Physics / Quantum Information / Condensed Matter)

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

micro1 is engaging Physics Experts (Statistical Physics / Quantum Information / Condensed Matter) to contribute to a research-driven customer project at the intersection of theoretical physics and numerical benchmarking.

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.

Scope of Work

  • Analyze and provide expert insights into complex statistical physics phenomena, with a focus on replicated random-bond Ising/Ashkin-Teller models, the toric-code threshold, and the Nishimori line.
  • Deliver clear, well-documented solutions or critiques of problems relating to Kramers-Wannier duality, quenched disorder averaging, square-lattice self-duality, and domain-wall free energy.
  • Engage in advanced numerical work, particularly around 4-state Potts model simulations and interpretation.
  • Identify, discuss, and resolve technical challenges involving noncontractible loop defects and related topological features.
  • Participate as a Solver, Auditor, or Adjudicator on specific project assignments based on your experience and subfield strengths.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Advanced academic background (PhD or equivalent experience) in physics, with specialization in statistical physics, quantum information, or condensed matter theory.
  • Direct, hands-on experience applying Kramers-Wannier duality, quenched disorder averaging, and square-lattice self-duality in research or project settings.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in numerical simulations involving the 4-state Potts model and analysis of domain-wall free energy.
  • Familiarity with topological quantum codes, particularly the toric code and its threshold phenomena.

Key skills

  • Physics
  • Kramers-Wannier duality
  • quenched disorder averaging
  • square-lattice self-duality
  • domain-wall free energy
  • noncontractible loop defects
  • 4-state Potts model numerics
