• Evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, assumptions, and engineering logic.
• Validate analytical or numerical results using Python (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas).
• Improve AI reasoning to align with first principles and accepted engineering standards.
• Apply structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem solving.

How to Apply

Apply with your resume (English). Complete a short qualification process and get matched to projects aligned with your specialization.

Tasks for this project are estimated to take 6–10 hours to complete, depending on complexity. This is an estimate and not a schedule requirement; you choose when and how to work. Tasks must be submitted by the deadline and meet the listed acceptance criteria to be accepted.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or closely related field
• Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation
• 3+ years professional or advanced academic experience in one or more of:
• Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics
• Solid Mechanics, Dynamics & Vibration
• Mechanical Design, Machine Elements
• FEA, CFD, Computational Mechanics
• Manufacturing Processes, CAD/CAE, Thermal Systems
• Advanced English proficiency (C1+)
• Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation
• Ability to design non-trivial, computationally intensive problems

Why Join

• Earn up to $15/hour for your expertise
• Fully remote, flexible, part-time freelance work
• Contribute to how future AI systems reason about mechanical engineering
• Work on technically rigorous, non-routine problems
