About the Role

This Materials Science Expert position focuses on developing sophisticated, advanced technical challenges that exceed standard academic exercises. You will work on situations where success requires navigating intricate limitations and differentiating between logically flawed paths and correct methodologies. Using your extensive subject mastery, you will construct demanding problems and build the analytical basis required to separate truly correct results from those that only seem valid. This role is well-suited for seasoned professionals seeking to apply their expertise in a secondary capacity alongside their main career.

Requirements

  • You must hold a PhD or Master’s degree in metallurgy, polymer science, materials science, condensed matter physics, ceramics, or a related discipline.
  • We look for applicants with staff, principal, or fellow-level expertise gained within national labs, industrial research, or a faculty position at a top-tier university.
  • You need demonstrated technical proficiency in a specific materials niche, backed by practical, hands-on experience.
  • It is vital that you can explain your logic with enough clarity for another expert to confirm your findings.
  • A history of technical leadership, patents, or peer-reviewed publications is highly beneficial, as is professional experience in LLM or AI evaluation.

Responsibilities

  • You will develop complex technical questions spanning fields like computational materials, characterization, failure analysis, processing, and structure-property relationships.
  • Your duties include establishing authentic parameters and supplying essential background data.
  • You must determine clear, objective standards for accuracy to keep evaluation consistent across reviewers.
  • You will generate precise answers supported by thorough explanations and evaluate the technical validity of submissions from other contributors.
  • You are responsible for self-assessing your tasks and identifying any potentially unclear or non-gradable material to uphold rigorous quality benchmarks.

Benefits & Perks

  • The position provides high levels of scheduling freedom to accommodate your existing career obligations.
  • You will receive a pay rate ranging from 80 to 185 dollars per hour.
