Electrical Engineer – AI Trainer for Frontier Circuits

DataAnnotation; Pasadena (CA); Remote; USD 55,000 - 172,000; Full time

Job summary

DataAnnotation seeks an experienced Electrical Engineer to guide AI models in solving real hardware engineering challenges. You’ll design realistic problems, evaluate model reasoning, and defend your conclusions with written rationale.

You'll assess analog, RF, mixed-signal, and power domains, judging model outputs against engineering standards. Remote-friendly, with flexible hours, and projects across defense of hardware concepts.

Qualifications

• 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-level and system-level decisions.
• 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.
• Bachelor’s degree is preferred but not required.

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.
• 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.
