Remote Physics Expert

Turing is a rapidly growing AI company focused on advancing and deploying powerful AI systems. The company collaborates with leading AI labs to push the boundaries of model capabilities in areas such as reasoning, coding, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM, and frontier knowledge. These advancements are then applied to develop real-world AI solutions that address critical business challenges. This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects refining large language models by applying deep analytical skills and expertise in physics. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in physics, ranging from advanced engineering entrance levels to graduate and PhD concepts, and the ability to deconstruct complex phenomena into clear, logical steps. This position involves probing model limitations and leveraging state-of-the-art AI tools, providing valuable experience to future-proof your career.

Key Responsibilities:
- Problem Creation & Solutioning: Design and solve challenging physics problems that push the limits of large language models.
- Authoring Gold-Standard Data: Develop clear, high-quality, step-by-step solutions with detailed reasoning and explanations.
- Research Collaboration: Partner with LLM researchers to ensure task designs align with evaluation goals, focusing on areas where models face difficulties such as symbolic manipulation, abstraction, and multi-step reasoning.
- Benchmark Definition: Assist in defining and building new evaluation benchmarks covering physics topics from early undergraduate to PhD levels.

Required Qualifications:
- Strong analytical, research, and problem-solving skills with excellent English comprehension.
- Exceptional structured written communication skills, capable of providing constructive feedback and detailed annotations in a remote work environment.
- Ability to think laterally and creatively to construct novel scenarios and evaluate complex reasoning pathways.
- Self-motivated and able to work independently in a fast-paced, remote-first setting.
- Access to a personal desktop or laptop with a stable, high-speed internet connection.
- Educational background or Doctorate in Physics, Applied Physics, or an equivalent technical field.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits:
- Experience in AI evaluation, data annotation, content review, quality assurance, or related analytical roles is preferred but not mandatory.
- Flexible commitment of at least 4 hours per day, up to 40 hours per week, with a requirement of 4 hours overlap with Pacific Standard Time (PST).
- Engagement type is contractor-based with a duration of 12 weeks.
- Candidates shortlisted will be invited to complete a Job Interest Form, with final selections followed by onboarding instructions.

This role is ideal for individuals passionate about physics and AI, seeking to contribute to pioneering AI research while developing skills that will remain relevant as AI technologies evolve.
