Job description

We are seeking astronomy experts with Olympiad or research backgrounds to join an AI-driven project focused on advancing astronomical reasoning. In this role, you’ll design rigorous, Olympiad-style problems that challenge the limits of AI understanding and help train next-generation reasoning systems.

This short-term, high-impact, and fully remote opportunity is ideal for experienced problem writers, Olympiad medalists, or astronomy educators passionate about bridging science and artificial intelligence.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design original, advanced astronomy problems modelled after International Astronomy Olympiad (IAO) standards.
  • Evaluate AI-generated solutions for scientific accuracy, reasoning depth, and clarity.
  • Identify logical errors, missing derivations, and gaps in problem-solving rigor.
  • Deliver accurate, well-structured solutions using LaTeX formatting.
  • Maintain the highest levels of scientific precision and conceptual clarity.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience as an IAO participant, medalist, coach, problem setter, or equivalent (e.g., RAO, USAAO, INAO, EuAO).
  • Graduate-level expertise or research experience in Astronomy, Astrophysics, or related Physical Sciences.
  • Strong problem-writing and analytical reasoning skills.
  • Proficiency in LaTeX for scientific documentation.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Apply Now!
