Role OverviewWe are sharing a part-time consulting opportunity for advanced physics researchers with expertise in atomic, molecular, and optical physics to contribute to an advanced AI training and scientific evaluation project.
What You Will Do
Selected professionals will apply specialist knowledge in AMO physics to technically demanding problems involving atomic polarizability, configuration-interaction methods, ytterbium isotope calculations, and optical-transition analysis.
Why It Might Be a Fit
No prior experience in AI is required, and the engagement combines advanced scientific reasoning with structured technical evaluation and communication.
Requirements
- Advanced degree, including MS, PhD, or equivalent research experience, in Physics
- Strong specialisation in AMO physics, atomic physics, or optical properties of materials
- Proven experience with ab initio quantum calculations
- Familiarity with configuration-interaction approaches to atomic polarizability
- Deep understanding of atomic-structure computation techniques
- Experience with ytterbium isotopes, particularly Yb-171 and Yb-174, is strongly valued
- Strong understanding of sigma and pi transitions and the physical principles underlying optical spectra
- Ability to analyse complex theoretical or computational physics problems independently
- Strong structured written and verbal scientific communication skills
