Mechanical Engineering Expert (AI Trainer)
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 to make it happen. Your deep domain knowledge will directly shape how AI reasons through complex engineering problems, from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to structural mechanics and FEA.
This is a rare opportunity to step beyond traditional engineering work and leave a lasting mark on the AI systems that millions of people will rely on.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design Advanced Engineering Problems — Craft challenging, domain-specific problems across areas like Finite Element Analysis (FEA), heat transfer, kinematics, fluid mechanics, and material science to stress-test AI performance
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for AI learning and evaluation
Audit AI Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy, safety, and compliance with standards such as ASME and ISO
Refine Model Thinking — Identify logical errors in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, unit inconsistencies, or energy conservation violations — and deliver structured feedback that directly improves model quality
Who You Are
Currently 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 areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and mathematical reasoning clearly in writing
Highly detail-oriented — comfortable checking derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints with precision
No prior AI experience required
Nice to Have
Experience with data annotation, quality evaluation, or technical review workflows
Familiarity with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
Exposure to simulation or computational modeling environments
