What to Expect
Physics evaluation requires you to assess AI reasoning across classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and relativity. Tasks present physics problems and ask whether the AI's solution approach is correct, whether the right formulas are applied, and whether dimensional analysis holds. Quantum mechanics tasks are particularly common and challenging, AI frequently makes subtle errors in wave function normalization, operator commutation, and perturbation theory. Astrophysics and cosmology questions appear in some task pools. PhD or advanced research experience is the norm for high-paying physics tasks. You'll need to explain your corrections clearly in writing, making communication skills as important as technical depth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a physics PhD?
A Master's or PhD is strongly preferred, and PhDs qualify for the higher rates. Some roles accept a Bachelor's with 5+ years of relevant work experience, at lower rates.
What physics specializations are in-demand?
Quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, and thermodynamics are the highest-volume areas, and astrophysics, electromagnetism, and statistical mechanics are also common. Rare expertise such as quantum field theory or plasma physics qualifies for the most specialized roles.
Will I need to write equations?
Yes, many tasks require evaluating mathematical physics. You'll assess differential equations, Lagrangian/Hamiltonian formalism, and problem-solving approaches. Strong math skills essential.
Can I do this while working in physics research?
Yes. These are contract gigs, not competing roles. Verify your institution allows outside work, but typically permitted for academics. Part-time work fits around research schedules.
Is there work specifically for nuclear physicists?
Yes, nuclear and particle physics is one of the named subfield tracks on Mercor, alongside string theory, QFT, and condensed matter. It's a narrow subfield hire with fewer seats than general physics, so check the dedicated nuclear engineering page too for reactor-side and applied nuclear roles.
How many Physics AI training jobs are open right now?
This page is showing 72 listings, sourced from 11 platforms: Mercor (31), Micro1 (12), Turing (9), Handshake (5) and Meridial (3). The most recent one was picked up 2 days ago. The count moves as platforms post and close roles, so treat it as a snapshot of today rather than a fixed figure.
What do Physics AI training jobs pay?
Most sit between $60 and $98 an hour, with a median of $85, measured across the 59 listings on this page that quote an hourly rate. The highest rate currently posted here is $225 an hour. These are the figures the platforms published, not our estimates, and the rate you are offered depends on how you do in that platform's assessment.
Are Physics roles paid hourly or per task?
Both appear here. 2 listings pay per task or per project rather than by the hour, and the rest quote an hourly rate. Per-task work suits people who are fast and accurate, since your effective hourly rate depends on how long each unit takes you.
