Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering — 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. As an AI Trainer, you'll stress-test advanced language models on complex engineering problems, expose their reasoning failures, and help define what engineering-grade AI looks like.
This is a rare opportunity to step outside traditional engineering work and directly influence how the next generation of AI understands fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and more.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract

Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Design Challenging Problems — Craft advanced engineering problems across domains like FEA, heat transfer, kinematics, and material science to probe the limits of AI reasoning
Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions that serve as benchmarks for AI learning
Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with standards like ASME and ISO
Refine AI Reasoning — Identify flawed reasoning — incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, unit errors — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance
Work Independently — Complete task-based assignments on your own schedule, asynchronously
