Physics Subject Matter Expert (AI Training)
About the Role
We're looking for physics experts in São Paulo and across Brazil to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. Your deep understanding of physics will directly shape how AI reasons through complex problems — from undergraduate mechanics to graduate-level electromagnetism and beyond.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role where your subject matter expertise is the most valuable thing you bring. No AI background required.
-
Organization: Alignerr
-
Type: Hourly Contract
-
Location: Remote (São Paulo, Brazil)
-
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Design challenging, rigorous physics problems across domains such as mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum physics
- Develop clear, step-by-step solutions that demonstrate precise reasoning and logical structure
- Evaluate AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, depth of reasoning, and quality of explanation
- Collaborate with researchers to develop and refine benchmarks spanning undergraduate to Masters-level physics
- Provide structured, actionable feedback that helps AI systems reason more like expert physicists
Who You Are
- Currently pursuing or have completed a Masters degree in Physics, Applied Physics, or a closely related field — from USP, UNICAMP, UFRJ, or equivalent institutions
- Strong physics reasoning and problem-solving skills across multiple advanced domains
- Able to communicate complex concepts clearly and concisely in written English
- Detail-oriented with a systematic approach to quality and accuracy
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently and asynchronously
- No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
- Experience with data annotation, evaluation systems, or academic content creation
- Familiarity with AI or machine learning concepts
- Background in research, tutoring, or technical writing
Why Join Us
