STEM Researcher — Computational Fields

About the Role

This is a full-time W-2 opportunity with Cincinnatus LLC. As part of this role, you may be staffed as a contractor with a leading technology company. Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced AI models.

What You'll Do

• Design tasks: Turn the research skills you use every day — designing studies, testing hypotheses, evaluating results — into engaging, multi-step tasks.
• Author solutions: Work through your own tasks in Python and notebooks, at the level of rigor you'd expect from a careful colleague.
• Define what good looks like: Help spell out what separates sound scientific reasoning from reasoning that merely sounds right.
• Evaluate models: Review model attempts at your tasks and flag the mistakes a working researcher would spot right away.

You're a Good Fit If You
