Job Description – Physics & Mechanical Engineering AI Expert
Do you have a background in Physics or Mechanical Engineering?
AI models are becoming increasingly advanced, but they often struggle with "common sense" physics—like how gravity operates, how objects move, or how much force is required to lift something. At TELUS Digital, we need subject-matter experts who understand the laws of the universe to ensure the AI’s outputs are grounded in reality.
You don’t need to be a coder—just someone skilled in verifying scientific accuracy.
What You’ll Do
You’ll contribute to improving AI's scientific accuracy through the following key responsibilities:
-
Problem Checking
- Review physics problems solved by AI to ensure:
- Correct use of formulas
- Proper handling of units (e.g. Newtons, Joules)
- Valid final answers
- Review physics problems solved by AI to ensure:
-
Mechanical Logic
- Verify that AI’s descriptions of real-world objects and phenomena are correct, logical, and free of errors.
- Example: Ensuring it correctly identifies a feather as lighter than a brick under normal conditions.
- Verify that AI’s descriptions of real-world objects and phenomena are correct, logical, and free of errors.
-
Diagram Review
- Examine simple mechanics diagrams depicting forces or motion.
- Validate whether AI labeling (right-angle corrections, vector directions, etc.) aligns with established scientific principles.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
