Job description

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.

Advantages Of Contracting With Us

• You will be able to choose which projects you want to work on and when
• You work on your own schedule, on your own computer, from the comfort of your own home
• Projects are paid hourly up to $40-$125 USD per hour, with bonus rates available on some projects

Responsibilities

• 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
