About the role
- We're a fast-growing, remote-first team of builders, researchers, engineers, and thinkers working across Canada, the US, the UK, and expanding globally.
- This is work that sits somewhere between creativity and rigorous thinking, and often requires comfort with ambiguity and iteration.
- If you're someone who enjoys tackling big, abstract problems and exploring ideas that don't yet have a defined path forward, you'll likely find the work here interesting.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end user lifecycle: from discovery and activation, to onboarding and long-term retention
- Design and improve onboarding flows, workflows, and user journeys that scale across thousands of users
- Build lightweight systems (guides, tooling, automations) to help users graduate from freemium to higher-tier usage
- Partner closely with research and engineering to align the system with real user needs
- FirstPrinciples is a research organization building AI infrastructure for discovery in fundamental science.
- Currently, our work focuses on building systems like Theo, the AI Physicist, which is a domain-specialized system for research in fundamental physics.
- What brings us together is a shared curiosity about how the universe works, and a belief that we can build systems that help us explore it more effectively.
- We spend our time working on questions that don't have clear answers, like how to design AI that can reason through scientific problems, and how the scientific process as a whole might evolve.
Requirements
- Comfort and familiarity working hands-on with technical systems, experiments, or computational tools
Nice to have
- Strong background in physics (PhD or equivalent depth of experience preferred)
Skills
- The opportunity to work on foundational problems at the intersection of AI and physics
- A high-trust, low-bureaucracy environment with real ownership
- Remote-first work with flexibility in how you structure your day
- Exposure to cutting-edge ideas across AI, scientific discovery, and emerging technologies
- A culture that values curiosity, depth of thinking, and first-principles reasoning
- The chance to contribute to work aimed at advancing fundamental science
Company info
- Experience supporting users, customers, or researchers at scale (eg. CSM, developer relations, research support, etc.)
