Job description

Bring senior mechanical expertise to AI evaluation projects focused on mechanical loads, tolerances, thermal behavior, and design verification.

Review model responses and worked examples for incorrect calculations, missing physical constraints, and incomplete verification. Assess whether the reasoning meets professional standards for the stated task.

Write reference answers and scoring criteria grounded in mechanical loads, tolerances, thermal behavior, and design verification. Explain consequential errors, evidence gaps, and the reasoning behind your corrections.

This is remote, project-based contract work. Scope, hours, and assignments depend on project matching; the listed hourly range applies to matched work.

Requirements

• 7+ years of substantive experience in mechanical engineering.
• Demonstrated senior-level judgment in mechanical loads, tolerances, thermal behavior, and design verification, with substantial responsibility for reviewing or delivering this work.
• Ability to write precise reference answers, assess competing approaches, and justify corrections with traceable evidence.
