Mechanical Engineering Expert - AI Content Specialist
About this role
About the Role We're looking for mechanical engineering experts to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. Your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex engineering problems — from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to structural mechanics and mechatronics. This is a unique opportunity to move beyond traditional engineering work and leave a lasting mark on the next generation of AI systems used by engineers, researchers, and innovators worldwide. - 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 like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, fluid mechanics, and material science to rigorously stress-test AI performance - Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models learn from and are evaluated against - Audit AI Reasoning — Evaluate AI-generated outputs including CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO) - Identify & Correct Failures — Pinpoint logical errors in AI reasoning — such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or invalid boundary conditions — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance - Work Independently — Complete task-based assignments asynchronously on your own schedule Who You Are - Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field - Strong foundational knowledge across core areas such as solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes - Able to communicate highly technical concepts and complex physical phenomena clearly and concisely in writing - High attention to detail when checking mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints - Self-motivated, reliable, and comfortable working independently - No prior AI experience required Nice to Have - Prior experience with data annotation, data quality assurance, or evaluation systems - Proficiency in engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS - Familiarity with AI or language model evaluation workflows Why Join Us - Work on frontier AI projects in collaboration with world-leading AI research labs - Fully remote and flexible — work on your schedule, from anywhere - Freelance autonomy with the backing of an established AI training organization - Engage with intellectually stimulating, technically demanding problems every day - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as projects grow
