Physics Subject Matter Expert - AI Content Specialist

Physics Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)About The Role We're looking for physics experts to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models being developed by the world's leading AI research labs. Your deep understanding of physics will directly shape how AI reasons through complex scientific problems — from undergraduate fundamentals to graduate-level challenges. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed for physics professionals and graduate students who want to contribute to meaningful, frontier AI work on their own schedule.

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

What You'll Do

• Design rigorous, original physics problems spanning mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and more
• Develop clear, step-by-step solutions that demonstrate precise logical reasoning
• Evaluate AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, depth, and quality of reasoning
• Identify gaps, errors, and weaknesses in how AI models approach physics problems
• Collaborate with researchers to build and refine benchmarks across undergraduate to Masters-level topics
• Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule

Who You Are

• Currently pursuing or have completed a Master's degree in Physics, Applied Physics, or a closely related field
• Strong problem-solving ability across multiple advanced physics domains
• Able to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and precisely in writing
• Detail-oriented with a structured approach to evaluation and feedback
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently
• No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

• Experience with data annotation, evaluation systems, or academic assessment
• Familiarity with AI or machine learning concepts
• Background in research, tutoring, or technical writing

Why Join Us

• Work on frontier AI projects with some of the world's top research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — design your own schedule
• Freelance perks: high autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
• Make a tangible impact on how AI understands and reasons through science
• Potential for ongoing work and contract renewals
