Physics Expert (Gravitation / Cosmology / Astrophysics)

Responsibilities

We are representing a confidential research organization seeking Physics Experts specializing in Gravitation, Cosmology, or Astrophysics for a remote contract engagement. In this role, you will contribute your domain expertise to an advanced research-driven project focused on training next-generation AI systems. No prior AI experience is required—your physics knowledge is what matters.

Your work will involve:

• Providing detailed analytical and numerical solutions to problems involving Palatini gravity (first-order formalism), including tetrad and spin connection approaches
• Calculating and analyzing Pontryagin density contributions and their implications in extended gravity theories
• Formulating, solving, and interpreting Friedmann ODEs with torsion and their relevance in cosmological models
• Integrating coupled, nonlinear ODEs using advanced methods and critically evaluating results
• Applying Planck-unit normalization in all theoretical and computational tasks to ensure consistency and comparability
• Contributing to frontier research-level physics benchmarks spanning Dynamical Chern-Simons gravity, the Palatini tetrad formalism, FRW cosmology, quadratic inflation, and related phenomena

Based on your expertise, you may be considered for specialized assignments such as Solver, Auditor, or Adjudicator, with specific scopes aligned to your subfield experience.

What We're Looking For

• Advanced academic background (PhD or equivalent) in physics, with emphasis on gravitation, cosmology, or astrophysics
• Hands-on experience working with first-order Palatini gravity, tetrad and spin connection formalisms, and higher-order curvature corrections
• Proven ability to derive, solve, and interpret nonlinear ODE systems relevant to cosmology and gravitational physics
• Familiarity with Pontryagin density, Chern-Simons modifications, and their physical implications
• Demonstrated experience with Planck-unit normalization and physical interpretation in theoretical models
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail in complex theoretical work
