We are looking for Physics Expert (PhD/Master's) candidates for a project delivered through Turing.
What you'll do
- Design and solve challenging Physics problems to probe the limitations of large language models.
- Create clear, high-quality, step-by-step solutions with well-articulated reasoning.
- Collaborate with LLM researchers to align problems with evaluation goals, especially in areas where models typically struggle (e.g., abstraction, multi-step reasoning, symbolic manipulation).
- Help define new evaluation benchmarks based on Physics curricula spanning early undergraduate to PhD-level topics.
- Break down complex Physics concepts into simple, clear explanations.
What you need
- Good research and analytical skills
- Ability to provide constructive feedback and detailed annotations.
- Creative and lateral thinking abilities.
- Excellent structured communication and collaboration skills in a remote setting.
- Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting.
- Desktop/Laptop set up with a good internet connection.
Nice to have
- Currently pursuing a Master’s/Ph.D./Postdoctoral degree in Physics, Applied Physics, or a related field.
- Ability to analyze and solve complex physics problems with a structured and logical approach.
- Ability to explain physics concepts clearly using simple language, visuals, and physics reasoning.
