Mechanical Engineering Expert (AI Training) About The Role We're looking for mechanical engineering experts to help train and improve cutting-edge AI systems. Your technical knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex engineering problems — from fluid dynamics to structural mechanics — making a real impact on the future of intelligent systems. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You set your schedule and work on your own terms.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

• Design Advanced Engineering Problems — Craft challenging, domain-rich problems across areas like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, thermodynamics, and material science to stress-test AI reasoning.
• Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for AI learning and evaluation.
• Audit AI-Generated Technical Content — Review AI outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO).
• Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as incorrect force distributions or energy conservation violations, and provide structured feedback that improves how the model thinks through engineering problems.

Who You Are

• Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
• Strong foundational knowledge in one or more core domains: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
• Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and technical reasoning clearly in written form
• High attention to detail — precise when checking mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
• No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

• Experience with data annotation, data quality, or technical evaluation workflows
• Proficiency in engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
• Familiarity with how large language models (LLMs) generate and process technical content

Why Join Us

• Work on genuinely cutting-edge AI projects in collaboration with leading AI research labs
• Fully remote and asynchronous — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
• Contribute to meaningful work that advances how AI handles real-world engineering challenges
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
