Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist

Mechanical Engineering Expert — AI Training Specialist
About The Role
We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more technically rigorous AI models — and we need mechanical engineers who can challenge them. As a Mechanical Engineering Expert, you'll push advanced AI systems to their limits across fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and more, documenting failures and crafting the gold-standard solutions that make next-generation AI more reliable.
This is a rare opportunity to apply your deep technical knowledge in a high-impact, fully remote freelance role — no prior AI experience needed.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design Advanced Engineering Problems — Craft complex, domain-spanning challenges across FEA, heat transfer, kinematics, material science, and mechatronics to stress-test AI reasoning and expose weaknesses.
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models use to calibrate and improve their outputs.
Audit AI-Generated Technical Content — Review AI-produced CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety compliance, and adherence to engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO).
Sharpen AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed material assumptions, and provide structured feedback that directly improves AI model performance.
Who You Are
Advanced Degree — Master's (pursuing or completed) or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field.
Deep Domain Knowledge — Strong foundation in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes.
Precise Technical Communicator — Able to explain complex physical phenomena and mathematical derivations clearly and concisely in written form.
Meticulous Attention to Detail — Comfortable catching errors in unit conversions, mathematical derivations, and physical system constraints.
No AI experience required — we'll get you up to speed.
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or technical review workflows
Proficiency in engineering software such as SolidWorks, ANSYS, or MATLAB to evaluate AI-generated code or simulation workflows
