Laurea Matematica jobs in Italy

Are you passionate about solving logical problems and working through challenging math?

Turing is seeking PhD-level researchers in physics to evaluate the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). Your responsibilities will include creating physics problems, analyzing model responses, and identifying gaps in logic or understanding. The primary aim is to assess how effectively these models handle abstract thinking and structured problem-solving.

Daily tasks involve designing physics questions, reviewing AI solutions, and providing insights into the model's comprehension of complex reasoning and logical steps. For example, you might be asked to analyze a problem such as:

"A high-energy pion travels through a material, losing energy at a constant rate. Given its rest mass and proper lifetime, calculate the probability that it decays within a certain distance from its origin. Or, for a 1D Brownian motion starting at the origin, define the last return time to zero and the time spent on the positive axis as fractions of total time. Find the exact joint probability distribution of these scaled times, expressed using the Heaviside function to specify its support."

Eligibility: Currently enrolled in or have completed a Ph.D. or Postdoctoral in Physics, Applied Physics, or a related field. Strong research and analytical skills. Ability to provide clear, constructive feedback with examples. Strong written communication skills, especially in remote settings. Comfortable working independently. Stable computer and internet access.

Note: This position is exclusively open to candidates who have completed or are currently pursuing a Ph.D.;

Time Commitment & Contract Details:

Minimum 4 hours per day, 20 hours per week, with at least 4 hours overlapping with PST. Options include 20, 30, or 40 hours per week. This is a contractor/freelancer role (no medical or paid leave). The contract duration is 1 month, starting next week. Selection involves a task-based assessment, followed by a contract offer with specific timelines and workload.
