Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist

Mechanical Engineering Expert — AI Content Specialist
About The Role
We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to make the next generation of AI models smarter, safer, and more technically rigorous — and we need mechanical engineers to help get us there.
As a Mechanical Engineering Expert, you'll put your deep domain knowledge to work by designing challenging problems, authoring gold-standard solutions, and auditing AI reasoning across fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and more. Your expertise will directly shape how AI understands and applies engineering principles.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role — work on your own schedule, on your own terms.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design Complex Engineering Problems — Craft advanced, domain-specific challenges across areas like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, fluid dynamics, and material science to stress-test AI performance.
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models use as the gold standard for learning.
Audit AI-Generated Technical Content — Evaluate 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 and document logical errors in AI reasoning, such as incorrect force distributions or energy conservation violations, and provide structured feedback to improve model performance.
Who You Are
Holds or is pursuing 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 technical concepts and physical phenomena clearly and precisely in written form
Detail-oriented — comfortable working with mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
Self-motivated and able to work independently and asynchronously
No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows
Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
Experience reviewing or producing technical documentation to industry standards
