Overview

Handshake is seeking physics bachelor's students and graduates to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional academic or full-time role. You'll use your physics background to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand physical reasoning, mathematical modeling, and technical problem-solving.

This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside studies, teaching, or industry employment.

About Handshake AI

Details

• This project involves using your experience in physics to design rigorous, domain-relevant questions and review AI-generated responses for scientific accuracy, logical consistency, and physical validity. No prior AI or technical experience is required.
• Fully remote with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement; most contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
• Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.
  
  

Qualifications

• Bachelor's students and graduates (including those currently enrolled in an undergraduate program) in Physics or closely related fields.
• Background in physical reasoning, mathematical modeling, and quantitative problem-solving across core areas such as classical mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, or statistical mechanics.
