Overview We are seeking advanced STEM Researchers and PhD-level subject-matter experts (SMEs) to contribute to a project supporting a frontier-model evaluation effort focused on rigorous scientific and technical reasoning. The AI lab is building next-generation models capable of solving complex, research-grade problems across the sciences, and requires deep domain expertise to design, solve, and evaluate the challenging tasks that train and benchmark these systems. This is a W-2 employment position with Cincinnatus LLC, requiring a commitment of 40 hours per week (during weekdays) . This position will be placed at a leading AI Lab as part of their extended workforce. # 2\. Key Responsibilities - Guide research teams to close knowledge gaps in STEM domains by surfacing edge cases, ambiguities, and frontier problems where current models underperform. - Design challenging, rigorous domain tasks and write accurate, well-reasoned solutions that demonstrate expert-level scientific and technical reasoning. - Evaluate tasks and solutions produced by AI agents and other contributors, providing clear written technical feedback grounded in domain expertise. - Develop evaluation frameworks and rubrics for assessing scientific reasoning quality across STEM domains. - Collaborate with other subject matter experts to ensure consistency and accuracy in training data. # 3\. Core Qualifications - PhD (completed, enrolled, or equivalent research track) in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Materials Science, or another STEM discipline. - 3+ years of research, academic, or industry experience in their primary STEM domain. - Demonstrated technical expertise in at least one domain : computational modeling, laboratory methods, data analysis, statistical inference, programming, or equivalent scientific methods. - Ability to commit to 40 hours per week during weekdays for the duration of the engagement. - Prior experience with data annotation, labeling, evaluation, or human feedback collection is a strong plus. - Experience with LLMs, AI systems, or agentic workflows; familiarity with agentic frameworks is a plus. - Strong written communication skills; ability to explain complex scientific or technical concepts clearly in writing.
