Remote Senior Physics Adjudicator

ixolabs.ai; France; Sur place; EUR 102 000 - 204 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

ixolabs.ai is seeking a senior physics-focused research professional to provide final scientific adjudication on competing methods and assumptions. You will compare rival arguments, define decision criteria, and calibrate confidence for open questions.

Remotely engaged, the assignment emphasizes transparency, reproducibility, and rigorous reporting using LaTeX, Python, and Jupyter. The work includes shaping the preferred interpretation with clear uncertainty statements.

Qualifications

• PhD in physics with recognized subject expertise and scholarly impact.
• Current or former associate professor, full/chair professor, PI or group leader with independent research leadership.
• Ongoing relevant research and 3–5 recent representative papers, referenced by DOI or arXiv.
• Experience supervising doctoral researchers or postdocs, or equivalent industry-research leadership.
• Working proficiency with the listed scientific tools; disclose any tool gaps rather than implying experience you do not have.
• The research area may concern material optics or quantum information, AMO/quantum optics, astrophysics and cosmology, gravitational theory, condensed matter, statistical or biological physics, or mathematical/high-energy physics.

Responsabilités

• Compare rival arguments, solutions or interpretations and explain which approach is stronger under the relevant assumptions and physical regime.
• Identify the criteria that should govern a decision, including the limits of approximations and the points at which a method stops being reliable.
• Use LaTeX, SymPy, Python and Jupyter where useful to check disputed claims or contrast approaches.
• Write assessments that can withstand review by senior researchers, calibrating confidence and identifying genuinely open questions.
