Remote Convection Stability Research Scientist

Obsidian is seeking researchers to contribute to CritPt, a public benchmark of physics challenges designed to test frontier AI reasoning in subfields like buoyancy-driven convection and Rayleigh-Bénard stability. You will engage with publication-level problems, perform linear stability analyses, and document reasoning in detail.

Remote, part-time, 10 hours/week over 8-10 weeks, starting immediately. Compensation is $80-$110 per hour, depending on depth of subdomain match and publication record.
