Description du poste

What This Opportunity Involves

• Design original computational physics problems that simulate real physics research workflows;
• Create problems requiring Python programming to solve (using Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
• Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks);
• Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;
• Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from physics practice;
• Verify solutions using Python with standard physics simulation libraries;
• Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.

What We Look For

• Degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related fields;
• Python proficiency for numerical validation. MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain‑specific libraries, Stata or knowledge of any programming language can be equivalent;
• 2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable;
• Experience with numerical simulation methods;
• Ability to design problems that mirror real physics research workflows;
• Creative thinking in problem design across diverse physics areas;
• Familiarity with physics modeling and approximation techniques;
• Strong written English (C1+).
