Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist

Mechanical Engineering Expert — AI Content Specialist
About The Role
We're looking for mechanical engineering experts to help train and improve cutting-edge AI models. Your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex engineering problems — from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to structural mechanics and beyond.
This is a unique opportunity to step outside traditional engineering roles and make a lasting impact on the future of 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 Complex Engineering Problems — Develop advanced, domain-specific challenges across areas like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, fluid mechanics, and material science to rigorously test AI performance
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write detailed, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models learn from and are evaluated against
Audit AI Technical Reasoning — Review AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO)
Identify and Correct Reasoning Failures — Spot logical errors in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed material assumptions — and provide structured feedback to improve model quality
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 domains: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
Able to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and precisely in writing
Highly detail-oriented — comfortable checking mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in an async, remote environment
No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, technical evaluation, or quality assurance workflows
Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
Familiarity with evaluating AI-generated code or simulation workflows
Why Join Us
Work on frontier AI projects alongside leading AI research teams and labs
Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually stimulating work
Contribute to AI systems that will influence engineering and science for years to come
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
