Remote Part-Time Mathematical Physicist – Research

Mercor seeks researchers to work on CritPt, a public benchmark of research-level physics challenges. This is a distributed, remote engagement focusing on physics subfields and written reasoning as part of every assignment.Commitment is 10 hours per week for 8–10 weeks, with compensation of $80–$110 per hour. You will match to subfields, contribute by...

Obsidian is seeking physicists to work on research-level problems in their own subfield. Depending on your publication record, you may create problems, solve them, review completed work, or audit it.This is research-grade work, remote and asynchronous with no fixed hours. We require a PhD in high energy theory or nuclear theory, a verifiable publication...

CritPt seeks researchers to work on high-level physics problems in well-defined subfields. You will produce complete written reasoning for each assignment and collaborate remotely, with assignments matched to your publication record.Ideal candidates hold a PhD in statistical or mathematical physics, and can demonstrate a verifiable publication list....

About the workCritPt is a public benchmark of research-level physics challenges, built to test whether frontier AI models can carry out genuine physics research reasoning rather than textbook problem solving. The benchmark paper is arXiv:2509.26574 and we recommend reading it before applying. It will tell you quickly
