- Evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, assumptions, and engineering logic.
- Validate analytical or numerical results using Python (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas).
- Improve AI reasoning to align with first principles and accepted engineering standards.
- Apply structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem solving.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field.
- Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation.
- 3+ years professional or advanced academic experience in one or more mechanical engineering domains.
- Advanced English proficiency (C1+).
- Ability to design non-trivial, computationally intensive problems.
Technical Stack
- Python
- NumPy
- SciPy
- Pandas
Benefits & Compensation
- Earn up to $50/hour for your expertise.
- Fully remote, flexible, part-time freelance work.
- Contribute to how future AI systems reason about mechanical engineering.
- Work on technically rigorous, non-routine problems.
