Subject Matter Expert (Physics) - Prompt Creator

About this role

Work Location : Remote Engagement Model : Independent Contractor/Freelance Estimated Project Duration : 2 - 4 weeks approx. Estimated Start Date : ASAP Role Summary DataForce by TransPerfect is seeking doctoral-level experts in Physics to contribute to a highly specialized, high-impact AI training initiative. In this role, you will leverage your own doctoral research to craft "stumper" prompts—complex, PhD-level scientific problems specifically designed to be unsolvable by current Large Language Models (LLMs). You will be responsible for designing the problem, testing it against various LLMs to verify they fail, documenting their flawed outputs, and finally providing the authoritative, step-by-step expert solution. This is an analytically demanding role that requires deep subject-matter expertise, rigorous scientific reasoning, and proficiency with digital documentation tools. If you can commit 15 hours per week, the project is expected to take about 8 weeks to complete. The average handling times will be shared at a later stage. Role Responsibilities Prompt Creation: Design original, highly complex, self-contained STEM problems based on your doctoral research or directly related subfields. LLM Testing & Verification: Input your prompts into multiple designated LLMs to verify that they consistently fail to produce the correct answer ("stumping" the models). Authoritative Solution Generation: Write a flawless derivation or calculation leading to the correct answer, including all relevant steps, explanations, equations, and visual diagrams. Platform Navigation: Utilize our proprietary DataForce Platform (DFP) to draft, test, and format your submissions (e.g., drawing chemical structures, creating physics diagrams, utilizing equation editors). Peer Review (For Senior/QA roles): Top-performing experts will be selected to review peer submissions, ensuring scientific accuracy, clarity, and adherence to project guidelines.
