Job description
Mechanical Engineering Expert — AI Content Specialist
About the Role
We're looking for mechanical engineering specialists to help train and evaluate 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 rare opportunity to sit at the intersection of engineering and artificial intelligence, contributing to some of the most advanced AI research happening today — all 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 — Create advanced mechanical engineering problems across domains like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, fluid dynamics, and material science to rigorously test AI performance
- Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models use as a reference for learning
- 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 logical errors in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed stress analyses — and provide structured feedback to improve model accuracy
Who You Are
- Pursuing or completed a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
- Strong foundational knowledge in one or more of: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
- Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and technical concepts clearly and concisely in writing
- High attention to detail when working with mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
- No prior AI experience required — if you know engineering, we'll handle the rest
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 evaluating AI-generated code, simulations, or technical workflows
Why Join Us
- Work on cutting-edge AI projects in collaboration with leading AI research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work independently on your own schedule
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
- Gain unique exposure to how large language models are trained and evaluated
- Contribute to meaningful work that advances AI reasoning in science and engineering
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
