Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist
About this role
About the Role We're looking for mechanical engineering specialists to help train and improve cutting-edge AI models. Your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI reasons through complex engineering problems — from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to structural mechanics and beyond. This is a unique opportunity to apply your advanced engineering expertise in a new and impactful way, working alongside top AI research teams to make next-generation models smarter, safer, and more technically rigorous. - Organization: Alignerr - Type: Hourly Contract - Location: Remote - Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do - Design Complex Engineering Problems — Craft advanced, domain-specific challenges across areas like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, fluid dynamics, kinematics, and material science to rigorously stress-test AI performance - Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI systems use as learning references - Audit Technical Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO) - Refine AI Thinking — Identify and document logical failures in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed material assumptions — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance Who You Are - Holds a Master's (in progress or completed) or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline - Strong foundational expertise in one or more core areas: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes - Able to communicate complex technical concepts and physical phenomena clearly and precisely in writing - Meticulous attention to detail when reviewing mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints - No prior AI experience required — your engineering knowledge is what matters Nice to Have - Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assessment, or evaluation systems - Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS - Familiarity with AI or language model evaluation workflows Why Join Us - Work on some of the most advanced AI projects in the world alongside leading research labs - Fully remote and flexible — set your own schedule and work when it suits you - Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global community of experts - Contribute to meaningful work that pushes the boundaries of what AI can understand and reason through - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
