Applied Physics Specialist (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your years of rigorous physics training could directly shape how AI reasons about the physical world? We're looking for PhD-level Applied Physicists to stress-test and improve cutting-edge Large Language Models — probing their understanding of quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics, and more.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and academics who want to do intellectually meaningful work on their own schedule. No prior AI experience needed — your deep domain expertise is what matters.

Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

Design Advanced Problems: Craft PhD-level, open-ended physics problems that demand multi-step logical reasoning, rigorous mathematical derivation, and mastery of first principles
Author Ground-Truth Solutions: Write exact, step-by-step "golden responses" — verifying every constant, unit conversion, and logical step along the way
Audit AI Reasoning:



Evaluate AI-generated proofs and simulations for physical consistency, identifying where models "hallucinate" physics that violates fundamental laws
Refine Model Behaviour: Provide structured, expert feedback that improves AI reasoning around boundary conditions, conservation laws, and physics-informed constraints
Push the Boundaries: Work on university-level and research-level benchmarks spanning quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, electromagnetism, statistical mechanics, and more

Who You Are

PhD completed or in final stages in Applied Physics, Physics, Engineering Physics, or a closely related field
Deep mastery of the core pillars: Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, and Quantum Mechanics
Exceptional analytical writing ability — you can explain complex derivations and physical phenomena in clear, structured English
Uncompromising precision when it comes to units, scientific notation, and th
