Job description

Mechanical Engineering Expert (AI Training)

About The Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research teams to make cutting-edge language models smarter, safer, and more technically rigorous — and we need mechanical engineers to help us do it.

As a Mechanical Engineering Expert, you'll stress-test advanced AI systems on topics like fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and mechatronics. You'll design problems that expose the limits of AI reasoning, author gold-standard solutions, and provide the structured feedback that helps these models think better.

This is a rare opportunity to apply your deep technical knowledge to a field that's reshaping the world — on your own schedule, from anywhere.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

• Design Challenging Problems — Craft advanced mechanical engineering problems across domains including FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, material science, and mechatronics to rigorously test AI performance
• Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that serve as the standard for AI learning
• Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO)
• Improve AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors in AI outputs — such as incorrect force distributions, flawed energy conservation arguments, or invalid material assumptions — and deliver structured feedback to improve model quality

Who You Are

• Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field
• Strong foundational expertise in one or more core areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes
• Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and technical reasoning clearly and concisely in writing
• Highly detail-oriented when reviewing mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints
• No prior AI experience required — your engineering knowledge is what matters

Nice to Have

• Experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows
• Familiarity with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS
• Background in technical writing or academic publishing

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs and AI teams
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, at your own pace
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with experts across the globe
• Make a direct, meaningful impact on how AI understands and reasons through engineering problems
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
