Ensure problems are computationally intensive and cannot be solved manually within reasonable timeframes (days/weeks);

/n
Develop problems requiring non-trivial reasoning chains in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics;

/n
Base problems on real research challenges or practical applications from optics & physics practice;

/n
Document problem statements clearly and provide verified correct answers.

/n

/n

What we look for

/n

This prospect is a valuable fit for optical engineers open to part time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:

/n

/n
Degree in Physics (Theoretical, Experimental, or Computational) or related fields;

/n




2+ years of professional experience: applied, research, or teaching experience is applicable;

/n
Experience with numerical simulation methods;

/n
Ability to design problems that mirror real physics research workflows;

/n
Creative thinking in problem design across diverse physics areas;

/n
Familiarity with physics modeling and approximation techniques;

/n
Strong written English (C1+).
