High Energy/Mathematical Physicist for AI Training

Apply advanced high energy and mathematical physics expertise to help train next-generation AI systems through rigorous, real-world technical input. This remote contract role is suited to established professors and principal investigators who can evaluate complex physics work with clarity, sound judgment, and appropriate scientific caution. Key Responsibilities

• Adjudicate contested or competing physics arguments, solutions, and interpretations within your subfield.
• Compare alternative approaches to the same problem, explaining which is stronger, the assumptions involved, and the regimes in which each applies.
• Define the meta-level criteria used to assess robustness and validity, including key assumptions and where approximations may fail.
• Provide authoritative, calibrated assessments while clearly identifying genuine uncertainty and open questions in the field.
• Write rigorous, defensible evaluations suitable for review by senior physicists.
• Use LaTeX, SymPy, Python, and Jupyter as needed to verify or compare technical claims.
• Clearly explain when a question remains unresolved and identify the relevant scientific considerations.

• PhD in physics, with demonstrated expertise and scholarly impact in a relevant subfield.
• Current or former Associate Professor, Full Professor, Chair Professor, Principal Investigator, or Group Leader, with a record of independent research leadership.
• Active research involving one or more of the following: AdS/CFT, onshell gravitational action, Weyl Fefferman Graham gauge, or tensor algebra of boundary curvature invariants.
• Three to five recent representative publications in the target subfield, including arXiv or DOI references.
• Experience supervising PhD students or postdoctoral researchers, or equivalent leadership in an industry research setting.
• Proficiency with LaTeX, SymPy, Python, and Jupyter, with any experience gaps identified.
• Exceptional written communication, physics mastery, expert judgment in ambiguous cases, meta-level reasoning, research leadership, and the ability to articulate nuanced, well-reasoned conclusions.
• No previous AI experience is required.

• Remote independent contractor engagement.

• $80 to $160 per hour.
