Freelance Quantum Research Scientist (Python)

About the role

We are looking for a freelance Quantum Research Scientist with strong Python skills to design and validate computational physics problems for AI training projects. This is a project‑based, remote opportunity that supports leading tech companies in testing and improving AI systems.

Key responsibilities

• Design original computational physics problems that reflect real research workflows in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics.
• Create Python‑based problem statements using libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, and Sympy.
• Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes.
• Base problems on genuine research challenges or practical physics applications.
• Verify solutions programmatically and provide clear documentation with correct answers.

Required profile

• Degree in Physics (theoretical, experimental, or computational) or a closely related field.
• Minimum 2 years of professional experience in research, applied physics, or teaching.
• Strong written English proficiency (C1 level or higher).
• Creative thinking and ability to translate complex physics concepts into problem sets.

Required skills

• Python programming.
• Numerical libraries: Numpy, SciPy, Sympy.
• Experience with numerical simulation methods and physics modeling.

What we offer

• Project‑based work with an estimated 10‑20 hours per week during active phases.
• Flexible remote schedule.
• Compensation up to $35 per hour, depending on contribution level and pace.
