Physics Researcher - High Energy Expert

Role Responsibilities

• Solve research-level physics challenges end-to-end with verifiable derivations, Python code, and peer-reviewed references.
• Decompose challenges into standalone checkpoint sub-problems requiring genuine physical reasoning.
• Author Python answer templates with auto-grading functions for symbolic or numerical answers.
• Audit submitted solutions for correctness, scope, and method soundness; deliver actionable feedback across iterations.
• Adjudicate between parallel solver attempts and decide which solution becomes the golden reference.
• Document chain-of-thought reasoning, error tolerances, equivalent symbolic forms, and verification test cases.

Qualifications

• Must-Have:
• Must have a PhD or postdoc in the relevant subfield (senior PhD student minimum).
• Must have a postdoc or junior professor in the relevant subfield (PhD minimum).
• Must have a full professor or industry research PI in the relevant subfield (senior postdoc or junior professor minimum).
• Must have hands-on familiarity with at least two canonical methods of the target subfield, demonstrated through publications.
• Must have 3–5 representative publications (arXiv ID or DOI), ideally within the last ~5 years and in the target subfield.
• Must have working proficiency with LaTeX, Python, Jupyter, and SymPy.
• Must have strong written English (B2/C1/C2 minimum; native or near-native preferred).
