What is a Mathematical Physics job?

A Mathematical Physics job involves using advanced mathematical methods to solve complex problems in physics. Professionals in this field work on theoretical models, analyze physical systems, and develop mathematical frameworks to describe fundamental forces and particles. They may contribute to areas like quantum mechanics, relativity, statistical mechanics, or computational physics. Careers in mathematical physics can be found in academia, research institutions, technology companies, or financial industries where analytical modeling is essential.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Mathematical Physics position, and why are they important?

Excelling in Mathematical Physics requires a robust background in advanced mathematics, theoretical physics, and typically a master's or Ph.D. in a related discipline. Familiarity with programming languages such as Python or MATLAB, experience with computational modeling, and data analysis tools are highly valuable. Strong problem-solving abilities, critical thinking, and effective communication help professionals explain complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. These competencies are essential for developing innovative models, conducting rigorous research, and collaborating effectively with interdisciplinary teams.

What kinds of projects or research areas do Mathematical Physicists typically work on?

Mathematical Physicists often engage in projects that explore the mathematical foundations of physical theories, such as quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, or general relativity. Their work can involve developing new theoretical models, simulating physical systems, or solving complex equations that describe real-world phenomena. Many Mathematical Physicists collaborate with other scientists or engineers on interdisciplinary teams, and may contribute to advances in fields like materials science, computational physics, or even finance. These roles offer opportunities to publish research, present at conferences, and sometimes to teach or mentor students, depending on the work environment.

Job description

About SOLFL
 

SOLFL is a new movement in conscious education dedicated to cultivating intellectual, emotional, and spiritual intelligence. Our first school, SOLFL , a K-12 Miami Torah Earth School, offers a rigorous, mutli-disiplinary curriculum that integrates hands-on, experiential learning with entrepreneurship, ecology, creative expressions and spiritual practice. Our goal is to move children away from traditional classrooms, desks and screens, into the real world. This is an irl (in real life) school aimed at cultivating the impact entrepreneurs of the future.

 
About the Role
 

The Head of Mathematics, Physics, and Engineering leads high school teaching and department development across mathematics, physics, and applied engineering-related learning. This person must be able to teach high school mathematics across Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus and Statistics. 

This role is both instructional and strategic. This person will teach high school Math and, when needed, Physics, while also helping shape the school's Math curriculum and supporting integrated learning experiences connected to real-world student ventures.

A key part of this role is supporting the Design Studio, a school arena where students develop products, prototypes, and solutions connected to their in-real-life ventures. Because of this, a strong background in Math, Physics, and engineering thinking is important. This person should be able to help bridge academic content with design, technical thinking, problem-solving, and product development.

As Department Head, this person will be responsible for both teaching and administration. They must have strong classroom management, strong project management, a highly systemized approach to their work, and strong academic governance related to their classes and department responsibilities. They should also be willing to support the design of Math curriculum and integrated learning projects in the middle school program.

Comfort with and interest in technology, robotics, and AI is highly desirable.

 
Core Responsibilities
 

High School Mathematics Teaching

  • Teach high school Math across Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus and Statistics

  • Deliver strong, rigorous instruction while helping students see Math as practical, useful, and connected to real-world work

  • Help students apply mathematical thinking to problem-solving, modeling, design, analysis, and decision-making

  • Build student confidence and fluency in core mathematical concepts and skills

Physics and Applied Technical Teaching

  • Help students connect Physics concepts to real systems, design challenges, movement, forces, energy, and product development

  • Bring engineering thinking into instruction where relevant, especially in ways that support real-world application

Design Studio Support

  • Support the Design Studio as a learning arena for student product development tied to in-real-life ventures

  • Help students apply Math, Physics, and technical reasoning to design, prototyping, testing, and iteration

  • Collaborate with other faculty to ensure student ventures are supported by strong quantitative and technical thinking

  • Contribute practical insight to design-based learning experiences and problem-solving work

Department Leadership and Administration

  • Lead department responsibilities related to teaching, planning, organization, and academic oversight
