Job description

Mechanical Engineering Expert — AI Content Specialist

About the Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more reliable AI systems — and we need mechanical engineers who can challenge them. As a Mechanical Engineering Expert, your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex engineering problems.

This is a rare opportunity to work at the intersection of advanced engineering and cutting-edge AI — on your own schedule, from anywhere in the world.

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

What You'll Do

  • Design Challenging Problems — Craft advanced mechanical engineering problems across domains like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, kinematics, and material science to rigorously test AI reasoning
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write detailed, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for AI learning and evaluation
  • Audit AI Reasoning — Review AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy, safety, and compliance with standards like ASME and ISO
  • Refine Model Thinking — Identify logical errors in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions or energy conservation violations — and deliver structured feedback that improves model performance

Who You Are

  • Advanced Degree — Master's (pursuing or completed) or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
  • Domain Expert — Strong foundational knowledge in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, CAD/CAM, manufacturing processes, or related core areas
  • Clear Technical Communicator — Able to explain complex physical phenomena and mathematical reasoning in precise, well-structured written form
  • Detail-Oriented — High precision when reviewing 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, data quality, or evaluation systems
  • Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
  • Familiarity with reviewing or debugging AI-generated technical workflows

Why Join Us

  • Work on genuinely frontier AI projects alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where you choose
  • Freelance autonomy with the backing of a collaborative global team
  • Expand your expertise by engaging with advanced language models at a technical level
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
