Our platform identifies and vets top talent through an AI recruiter, enabling high-quality expert contributions at scale. We aim to enable 1 billion people to do meaningful work by applying their expertise to AI. As our global expert network grows, micro1 is building the human intelligence layer for frontier AI.
Role Title: Physics Expert (PhD / Postdoc)
Role Type: Contractor.
Location: Remote
micro1 is engaging Physics Experts (PhD / Postdoc) to contribute deep scientific knowledge and problem-solving skills to a high-impact customer project. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.
Scope of Work
- Solve advanced physics problems from your specialization, delivering rigorous, well-documented derivations and analyses.
- Produce technically precise, clearly written solutions, detailing all assumptions, approximations, and final results using LaTeX mathematical notation.
- Utilize SymPy, Python, and Jupyter for symbolic or numerical verification and clear computational workflows where relevant.
- Identify and articulate subtleties in problem statements, including special cases, boundary conditions, and dimensional consistency.
- Flag ambiguities in project materials, proposing well-reasoned interpretations and clarifications as needed.
- Iterate on submitted solutions in response to feedback from project reviewers, ensuring corrections are cleanly integrated.
- Uphold rigorous standards in documentation and reproducibility consistent with professional research practice.
Preferred Qualifications
- PhD in physics or advanced-stage PhD candidacy, with active research experience in a relevant subfield.
- Research expertise in one or more of: High Energy Physics, Mathematical Physics, Biophysics, Statistical Physics, Condensed Matter (including moiré systems, magnetism, PXP/Rydberg), AMO/Quantum Optics, Gravitation, Cosmology, Astrophysics, Quantum Information, or Optical Properties of Materials.
- 2–5 recent representative publications (past ~5 years) in your field, with accessible arXiv or DOI records.
- Proficiency with LaTeX for presenting mathematics, and with SymPy, Python, and Jupyter for computational work; willingness to indicate areas for further support if needed.
- Demonstrated excellence in written technical communication, with a track record of producing clear, precise, and well-argued scientific outputs.
- Strong analytical skills, able to isolate key physical principles and provide nuanced solutions to complex problems.
- Availability to engage with the project consistently over an 8–10 week period (approx. 10 hours/week).
