Physics Expert

Role Responsibilities

• Adjudicate and render expert judgment on contested or competing physics arguments, solutions, or interpretations within your subfield
• Compare alternative approaches to the same problem, detailing which is superior, under what assumptions, and in which regimes
• Identify and articulate meta-level criteria for evaluating the robustness and validity of competing physics work, such as key assumptions and breaking points of approximations
• Exercise calibrated confidence by providing authoritative assessments while transparently acknowledging genuine uncertainty or open questions in the field
• Draft defensible written evaluations suitable for review by fellow senior physicists, ensuring clarity and rigor
• Clearly communicate when a question is unresolved within the field and delineate the pertinent considerations

Candidature

• PhD in physics with demonstrated expertise and scholarly impact in your specified subfield
• Current or former Associate Professor, Full Professor, Chair Professor, or Principal Investigator/Group Leader with a track record of independent research leadership
• Ongoing research activity with one or more of these methods: AdS/CFT, onshell gravitational action, Weyl Fefferman Graham gauge and/or tensor-algebra of boundary curvature invariant
• Three to five recent representative publications in your target subfield, with arXiv or DOI references
• Prior experience supervising PhD students or postdocs, or equivalent leadership in industry research settings
• Proficiency with LaTeX, SymPy, Python, and Jupyter (please indicate any gaps in experience with these tools)

Qualifications

• Exceptional written communication skills, with the ability to articulate nuanced and well-reasoned judgments
