Condensed Matter Physicist for AI Model Training

Apply advanced condensed matter and magnetism expertise to analyze magnetic space groups, interpret neutron scattering and optical signatures, and produce high-quality domain judgments that train next-generation AI systems. This contractor role focuses on magnetic structure factor analysis, propagation-vector methods, and rigorous magnetic phase and space group identification.

• Analyze and interpret magnetic structure factors using propagation-vector methodologies and symmetry concepts from condensed matter physics.
• Identify and classify magnetic phases, including antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic types, from theoretical and experimental data, including neutron diffraction results.
• Curate and validate magnetic space group assignments, referencing established datasets such as MAGNDATA, and ensure correct correlation with BNS notation conventions.
• Evaluate optical signatures, including birefringence and magneto-optic Kerr effect measurements, and relate these phenomena to underlying magnetic structures.
• Provide clear, consistent expert annotations and explanations intended for use as training data and evaluation material for AI models, no prior AI experience required.

• Required skills, demonstrated through work or research: magnetic structure factor calculations, propagation-vector analysis, magnetic space group identification, familiarity with MAGNDATA and BNS notation, and AFM/FM phase classification.
• Strong knowledge of neutron scattering techniques for magnetic structure determination.
• Ability to relate experimental signatures such as birefringence and MOKE to physical mechanisms.
• Preferred: advanced academic background, for example a PhD or equivalent research experience in condensed matter physics with a specialization in magnetism.

• Role type: Independent contractor, remote engagement.
• Work product: expert analyses, curated space group assignments, and annotated evaluations intended to improve AI training and evaluation.
• AI domain experience is not required; domain expertise is the primary qualification.

• Pay rate: $80 to $160 per hour, paid on an hourly basis.
