About the role

Models can recite physics and still get it wrong: dimensional errors, misapplied approximations, and derivations that skip the step where the physics actually happens. As a Physicist you'll evaluate AI reasoning across mechanics, E&M, quantum, and thermodynamics, and write solutions with the care of a good problem-set grader. What you’ll actually doCraft problemsthat expose weak physical reasoning, from undergraduate mechanics to graduate-level theory. Review AI solutionsfor dimensional errors, misapplied approximations, and skipped steps, and rate the reasoning. Write the gold-standard solutionwhen the model falls short, showing the physics clearly at every step. Roles this fitsCommon backgrounds: Physicist, Research Scientist. What we look forGraduate-level physics background or equivalent research experience. Comfort working problems across at least two core areas of physics. Clear written English: your explanations are the training signal. No degree required. We care about what you can do, not where you learned it. CompensationUp to $40 – $125+/hr depending on task difficulty and specialization. Many contributors add $10k–$100k+ a year; some make it their full-time income. About DataAnnotationDataAnnotation is where 100k+ experts train the world’s leading AI models. $150M+ paid to contributors to date, and the average contributor stays 5+ years. Flexible, remote, and always project-available.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
