Summary: The Physics Masters – AI Training Specialist role involves collaborating with leading AI research labs to enhance language models using advanced physics knowledge. Candidates will design complex physics problems, evaluate AI reasoning, and contribute to benchmarks that influence AI's understanding of the physical world. This position is ideal for those with a Master's in Physics, offering a unique opportunity to apply scientific expertise in a cutting-edge technology environment. No prior AI experience is necessary, but strong analytical skills and clear communication are essential.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design advanced physics problems spanning mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and more.
  • Develop clear, rigorous, step-by-step solutions that test AI reasoning at undergraduate to graduate level.
  • Evaluate AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, logical consistency, and solution quality.
  • Collaborate with researchers to refine benchmarks and push the boundaries of what AI can reason through.
  • Provide structured written feedback that directly improves model performance.

Key Skills:

  • Currently pursuing or have completed a Master's degree in Physics, Applied Physics, or a closely related field.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills across advanced physics domains.
  • Able to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and precisely in writing.
  • Detail-oriented with a rigorous approach to evaluating logic and accuracy.
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently and asynchronously.
  • No prior AI or data annotation experience required.
  • Experience with data annotation, evaluation, or quality assurance (nice to have).
  • Familiarity with large language models or AI benchmarking (nice to have).
  • Background spanning multiple physics subfields (nice to have).
