According to Wikipedia[0]:

> In philosophy and science, a first principle is a basic proposition or assumption that cannot be deduced from any other proposition or assumption.

In that sense the OP's comment might read as Carmack partnering up with someone who has a strong foundational understanding of hight level mathematics (if my understanding of the term and OP's post is correct).
