Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist

About the Role

We're looking for mechanical engineering specialists to help train and improve cutting-edge AI models. Your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI reasons through complex engineering problems — from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to structural mechanics and beyond.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your advanced engineering expertise in a new and impactful way, working alongside top AI research teams to make next-generation models smarter, safer, and more technically rigorous.

What You'll Do

• Design Complex Engineering Problems — Craft advanced, domain-specific challenges across areas like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, fluid dynamics, kinematics, and material science to rigorously stress-test AI performance
• Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI systems use as learning references
• Audit Technical Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO)
• Refine AI Thinking — Identify and document logical failures in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed material assumptions — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance

Who You Are

• Holds a Master's (in progress or completed) or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline
• Strong foundational expertise in one or more core areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
• Able to communicate complex technical concepts and physical phenomena clearly and precisely in writing
• Meticulous attention to detail when reviewing mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints

Nice to Have

• Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or evaluation systems
• Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
• Familiarity with AI or language model evaluation workflows

Why Join Us

• Work on some of the most advanced AI projects in the world alongside leading research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — set your own schedule and work when it suits you
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global community of experts
• Contribute to meaningful work that pushes the boundaries of what AI can understand and reason through
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
