Physics Expert (Statistical Physics / Quantum Information / Condensed Matter)

Remote, Worldwide

Role Title: Physics Expert (Statistical Physics / Quantum Information / Condensed Matter)

Role Type: Part-Time, Contractor

Location: Fully Remote, Open to candidates worlwide

Schedule: 5-10+ hrs/week. Fully flexible (Can accomodate after hours + weekends if needed)

micro1 is engaging Physics Experts (Statistical Physics / Quantum Information / Condensed Matter) to contribute to a research-driven customer project at the intersection of theoretical physics and numerical benchmarking.

In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.

Scope of Work

Analyze and provide expert insights into complex statistical physics phenomena, with a focus on replicated random-bond Ising/Ashkin-Teller models, the toric-code threshold, and the Nishimori line.

Deliver clear, well-documented solutions or critiques of problems relating to Kramers-Wannier duality, quenched disorder averaging, square-lattice self-duality, and domain-wall free energy.
