Theoretical Physicist for AI Training

$80 - $160 per hour

SaidGig

Role Overview

Apply advanced theoretical physics and numerical analysis expertise to help improve next-generation AI systems through rigorous, research-driven problem solving and evaluation. This remote contract opportunity focuses on statistical physics, quantum information, and condensed matter topics. Prior AI experience is not required.

Key Responsibilities

  • Analyze complex statistical physics phenomena, including replicated random-bond Ising and Ashkin-Teller models, toric-code thresholds, and the Nishimori line.
  • Produce clear, well-documented solutions and critiques involving Kramers-Wannier duality, quenched disorder averaging, square-lattice self-duality, and domain-wall free energy.
  • Perform and interpret advanced numerical work involving 4-state Potts model simulations.
  • Identify, discuss, and resolve technical issues involving noncontractible loop defects and related topological features.
  • Contribute to assignments as a Solver, Auditor, or Adjudicator, depending on project needs and your subfield expertise.

Qualifications

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

Work Terms

  • Remote contract engagement.

Compensation

  • $80 to $160 per hour.

Application Process

Apply using an email address or Google sign-in. Continuing the application indicates agreement to the applicable terms and privacy policies.
