Job summary

YO AI Labs is seeking a Mechanical Engineering Expert to support an AI training project involving design, analysis, simulation, and Python automation. You will solve structural, thermal, and multiphysics tasks and review AI-generated solutions for reproducibility.

This is a global remote, contractor role with ~15 hours per week; ideal candidates have an MS/PhD or BS with 1–2+ years of experience and strong fundamentals in mechanical engineering and simulation tools.

Qualifications

MS/PhD in Mechanical Engineering or BS with 1–2+ years of relevant experience.
Strong mechanical-engineering fundamentals and simulation experience.
Practical Python and programmatic engineering-tool experience.
Ability to select and justify materials, loads, boundary conditions, assumptions, and model fidelity.
Ability to validate results and clearly explain engineering decisions and trade-offs.

Responsibilities

Solve and validate mechanical engineering problems involving design, analysis, simulation, and testing.
Translate engineering requirements into analytical and computational models.
Create and modify geometry, meshes, materials, loads, constraints, and solver inputs.
Perform structural, thermal, dynamic, fatigue, buckling, and vibration analyses.
Use Python to automate simulations, parameter sweeps, optimization, and post-processing.
Analyze stress, strain, displacement, temperature, deformation, frequency response, and safety factors.
Diagnose geometry, mesh, convergence, boundary-condition, and modeling issues.
Compare simulation results with calculations, experiments, and expected physical behavior.
Review AI-generated engineering solutions and develop reproducible reference solutions.
