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 build smarter, more technically rigorous AI models — and we need mechanical engineers who know their craft inside and out.
As a Mechanical Engineering Expert, you'll go head-to-head with advanced AI systems, designing complex problems, authoring gold-standard solutions, and exposing the limits of AI reasoning across fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and more. Your expertise directly shapes how the next generation of AI understands and applies engineering principles.
This is a rare opportunity to work at the intersection of deep technical knowledge and cutting-edge AI development — 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 — Craft advanced, multi-step problems spanning FEA, heat transfer, kinematics, fluid dynamics, material science, and mechatronics to rigorously test AI performance
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models learn from and are evaluated against
Audit AI-Generated Technical Content — Review AI outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with standards such as ASME and ISO
Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors in AI-generated reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed material assumptions — and provide structured feedback that improves model performance
Who You Are
Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
Deep foundational knowledge in one or more core areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
Able to communicate complex technical concepts and physical phenomena clearly and precisely in writing
Highly detail-oriented when working through mathematical derivations, unit analysis, and physical system constraints
Self-directed and comfortable working independently on an asynchronous, flexible schedule
No prior AI experience required — your engineering knowledge is what matters
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, evaluation systems, or technical content review
Familiarity with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
Exposure to simulation workflows or computational modeling
