Physics Researcher for AI Training

$80 - $140 per hour

SaidGig

Role Overview

Apply advanced physics expertise to help train next-generation AI systems through rigorous, real-world scientific problem solving. This remote independent contractor role focuses on producing high-quality analyses, solutions, and feedback that support how AI models learn, reason, and perform. Prior AI experience is not required.

Key Responsibilities

  • Solve advanced physics problems in your area of specialization, providing rigorous, well-documented derivations and analyses.
  • Write technically precise solutions using LaTeX, including assumptions, approximations, and final results.
  • Use SymPy, Python, and Jupyter to verify symbolic or numerical work and present clear computational workflows when relevant.
  • Identify special cases, boundary conditions, and dimensional-consistency considerations in problem statements.
  • Flag ambiguities in project materials and propose well-reasoned interpretations or clarifications.
  • Revise submitted work in response to reviewer feedback, integrating corrections clearly.
  • Maintain research-grade standards for documentation and reproducibility.

Qualifications

  • PhD in physics or advanced-stage PhD candidacy, with active research experience in a relevant subfield.
  • Research expertise in one or more of the following: high energy physics, mathematical physics, biophysics, statistical physics, condensed matter, including moiré systems, magnetism, PXP/Rydberg, AMO or quantum optics, gravitation, cosmology, astrophysics, quantum information, or optical properties of materials.
  • 2 to 5 representative publications from approximately the past 5 years, with accessible arXiv or DOI records.
  • Strong physics mastery, technical problem-solving ability, mathematical and computational fluency, and written technical communication skills.
  • Proficiency in LaTeX, SymPy, Python, and Jupyter, with willingness to identify areas where further support may be helpful.
  • Ability to isolate key physical principles and develop nuanced solutions to complex problems.

Work Terms

  • Remote independent contractor engagement.
  • Consistent availability of approximately 10 hours per week over an 8 to 10 week period.

Compensation

  • $80 to $140 per hour.
