Physics QA

Job Description

OpenTrain partners with leading AI companies to build safer, smarter systems. We hire subject-matter experts to audit and improve model reasoning. We’re seeking Physics QA / AI Trainers to review physics prompts and model responses, verify step-by-step reasoning, and author improved solutions and prompts that raise quality and rigor. Individual contractors and qualified agencies are welcome.

What you’ll do

• Audit physics Q&A and model outputs for correctness, clarity, notation, and quantitative/experimental rigor across mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum, and applied physics.
• Evaluate responses against detailed QA rubrics; assign ratings and write concise rationales.
• Draft improved prompts, gold-standard solutions, and constructive feedback (SFT/RLHF/evaluation).
• Run quick validation checks in Python (e.g., sanity checks, symbolic/numerical verification; NumPy/SymPy/Pandas helpful).
• Identify edge cases, propose rubric refinements, and help enforce consistent quality standards.

Minimum Qualifications

• 3+ years professional/academic experience in physics or a closely related domain (applied physics, engineering, scientific computing).
• Bachelor’s in Physics or related field (Master’s/PhD preferred).
• Practical Python skills for analysis/simulation/validation scripts.
• Ability to review multi-step derivations, equations, units, and assumptions across core topics.
• Strong written English; comfortable following detailed QA rubrics and writing clear, actionable feedback.
• Reliable computer/internet; responsive and detail-oriented.

Nice to Have

• Teaching/lecturing, tutoring, or problem-set/rubric design experience.
• Prior LLM QA/RLHF/SFT or scientific content review experience.

Contract & Schedule

• Type: Contract (independent contractor), remote.
• Hours: ~20 hours/week (flexible; minimum 20 hrs/week).
• Duration: 3–6 months (potential extension).
• Compensation: USD $6–$55/hour (target $40/hour).
• Openings: ~30 roles.
