Electrical Engineer - AI Trainer

DataAnnotation; Frisco (TX); Remoto; USD 55.000 - 172.000; Tempo pieno

Vantaggi offerti da questo lavoro

Flexible remote work

Project-based workload

Competitive compensation

Descrizione del lavoro

DataAnnotation seeks an experienced Electrical Engineer to evaluate how frontier AI models handle real electrical and electronics engineering work. You bring engineering judgment from years of hardware design, debugging, and shipping, shaping next-gen engineering tools.

Responsibilities include designing problems, testing them with AI models, comparing versions, critiquing derivations, and flagging failures with evidence. Remote, project-based work with strong English communication expected.

Competenze

• Fluency in English (native or bilingual level).
• 2+ years of industry experience in circuit or electronics engineering.
• Background in electrical engineering, electronics engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• Strong command of circuit analysis and design tradeoffs, and the ability to defend component- and system-level decisions.
• Ability to articulate why an answer is wrong, not only that it is.
• Comfort with AI tools or ability to pick them up quickly.
• Bachelor’s is preferred but not required.

Mansioni

• Design challenging, realistic engineering problems from your own practice.
• Run those problems through frontier AI models and judge outputs.
• Compare model versions on identical prompts and call which performed better.
• Critique model-generated derivations, schematics, component selections, and calculations, and write the reasoning.
• Flag concrete failures with evidence.

Descrizione del lavoro

DataAnnotation is looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer to evaluate how frontier AI models handle real electrical and electronics engineering work. You bring the judgment you have already built over years of designing, debugging, and shipping hardware. We bring engineering problems the models cannot yet solve on their own.

This is a new and growing area for our company, focused on teaching AI to reason correctly about circuits, systems, and physical constraints. Your engineering judgment, your standard for what counts as a correct answer, and the written rationale behind them become the signal that shapes the next generation of engineering tools.

What you’ll actually do

• Design challenging, realistic engineering problems from your own practice: a circuit to specify, a control loop to stabilize, a power stage to size.
• Run those problems through frontier AI models and judge the output against your professional standard.
• Compare two model versions on identical prompts and call which performed better, and where each fell short.
• Critique model-generated derivations, schematics, component selections, and calculations, and write the reasoning behind your call.
• Flag concrete failures with evidence: wrong assumptions, sign and unit errors, unphysical results, invalid topologies, fabricated datasheet values, or off-brief interpretation.

Problems draw on whatever you know best:

• Analog, RF, and mixed-signal circuits.
• Electromagnetics and antennas.
• Control and systems.
• Devices and materials.
• Signal processing and photonics.
• Power and energy systems.

Roles this fits

• The ability to articulate why an answer is wrong, not only that it is.
• Working comfort with AI tools, or the ability to pick them up quickly.
• A current, in-progress, or completed Bachelor’s is preferred but not required.
• Only applicants based in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, or the United States will be considered for this role.
