What You'll Do

• Design Complex Engineering Problems — Craft advanced, multi-domain problems spanning FEA, heat transfer, kinematics, fluid mechanics, and material science to rigorously test AI performance
• Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that guide AI learning
• Audit AI Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO)
• Refine Model Thinking — Identify reasoning failures such as incorrect force distributions or energy conservation violations, and provide structured feedback to improve AI logic

Who You Are

• Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
• Strong foundational expertise in one or more core areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
• Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and technical reasoning clearly in writing
• Highly precise when working with mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
• No prior AI experience required — we'll get you up to speed

Nice to Have

• Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or technical review workflows
• Familiarity with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
• Exposure to mechatronics, robotics, or multi-physics simulation

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects with top-tier research labs and institutions
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, from anywhere
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and meaningful intellectual challenge
• Contribute to AI systems that need to get engineering right
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
