Applied Physics (AI Training) About The Role What if your deep expertise in physics could directly shape how AI understands the physical world — from quantum mechanics to thermodynamics? We're looking for PhD-level Applied Physicists to stress-test cutting-edge AI models, expose flaws in their physical reasoning, and help ensure they never violate the fundamental laws of the universe. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for researchers and academics who want to apply their expertise to one of the most consequential challenges in modern technology. No prior AI experience needed — just mastery of physics and a rigorous, analytical mind. Organization: Alignerr Type: Hourly Contract Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do Design Advanced Physics Problems — Craft challenging, open-ended problems at PhD qualifying exam level, requiring multi-step logical reasoning and complex mathematical derivation Author Gold-Standard Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step "golden responses" with flawless physical constants, unit conversions, and logical structure Audit AI Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated simulations, proofs, and explanations for physical consistency — identifying where models "hallucinate" physics that violates first principles Refine Model Behavior — Provide structured, expert feedback that helps AI develop physics-informed reasoning, including boundary conditions, conservation laws, and dimensional analysis Cover Core Domains — Work across Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics, and related fields Who You Are Holds a PhD (completed or in final stages) in Applied Physics, Physics, Engineering Physics, or a closely related field Deep mastery of the core pillars of physics — Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, and Quantum Mechanics Exceptional ability to explain complex physical phenomena and mathematical derivations in clear, structured English Uncompromising attention to detail — units, scientific notation, and logical flow are never an afterthought Comfortable working independently and asynchronously with minimal supervision No prior AI or data annotation experience required Nice to Have Experience with data annotation, scientific dataset evaluation, or quality assurance for research outputs Proficiency with tools such as MATLAB, COMSOL, Python (NumPy/SciPy), or similar Background in computational physics, engineering physics, or applied research Experience writing technical documentation, academic papers, or educational materials Why Join Us Work on some of the most intellectually demanding problems in AI development alongside world-leading research labs Fully remote and flexible — structure your hours around your existing commitments Freelance autonomy with the substance of meaningful, high-impact scientific work Contribute directly to ensuring AI systems reason about the physical world with accuracy and integrity Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
