Job description

Mechanical Engineer with Python Experience - Freelance AI Trainer

What We Do
We are a platform that connects specialists with AI projects from major tech innovators. Our mission is to unlock the potential of Generative AI by tapping into real‑world expertise from across the globe.

The Role
We are seeking experienced Mechanical Engineers with strong Python skills to train and evaluate AI models on complex, real‑world mechanical engineering problems. This role focuses on professional judgment and engineering rigor, not data labeling or traditional software development.

Responsibilities

• Design graduate‑ and industry‑level mechanical engineering problems grounded in real practice.
• 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.

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

Requirements

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a 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+).
• Ability to design non‑trivial, computationally intensive problems.

How to Apply
Submit your resume in English. Complete a short qualification process and you’ll be matched to projects aligned with your specialization.

Benefits

• Earn up to $55/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.
