Job description

We are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for experienced Technical Problem Authors with deep expertise across engineering domains such as aerodynamics, materials science, CAD/mechanical design, circuit design, and mechanical engineering to contribute to an advanced AI training and technical-reasoning evaluation project.

Selected professionals will author sophisticated engineering problems, evaluate AI-generated technical responses, apply practical engineering judgement to real-world scenarios, and provide structured feedback that improves technical reasoning and problem-solving quality. No prior experience in AI is required.

Key Responsibilities

Advanced Technical Problem Authoring

-

Author expert-level engineering problems within your area of specialisation

-

Develop scenarios across aerodynamics, materials science, CAD/mechanical design, circuit design, or mechanical engineering

-

Create technically rigorous problems that reflect real-world engineering complexity

-

Define clear assumptions, constraints, and expected reasoning paths

-

Avoid oversimplified or purely textbook-style exercises

AI Technical Response Evaluation

-

Review AI-generated technical responses for correctness and engineering relevance

-

Assess whether proposed methods, calculations, and conclusions are technically sound

-

Identify conceptual errors, unsupported assumptions, or incomplete reasoning

-

Evaluate practical feasibility as well as theoretical correctness

-

Provide structured feedback that supports model improvement

Engineering Analysis & Problem Solving

-

Apply practical engineering judgement to design, analysis, and failure scenarios

-

Analyse complex domain-specific technical issues

-

Evaluate trade-offs across performance, reliability, manufacturability, and other engineering constraints

-

Identify ambiguities or missing information within technical problem statements

-

Propose clarifications that improve problem quality and interpretability

Domain-Specific Technical Expertise

-

Contribute advanced knowledge from specialised engineering disciplines

-

Apply tools and methods relevant to fields such as AutoCAD, CFD, FEA, EDA, or laboratory-based engineering

-

Integrate theoretical fundamentals with practical industry experience

-

Evaluate problems using appropriate professional standards

-

Support technically diverse assignments based on project needs

Technical Feedback & Documentation

-

Provide clear written explanations of technical reasoning

-

Document errors, recommendations, and solution approaches precisely

-

Explain complex engineering concepts in professional English

-

Produce feedback that can be applied consistently by technical reviewers

-

Maintain strong standards of clarity, rigor, and reproducibility

Collaboration & Quality Assurance

-

Collaborate remotely with technical experts and project participants

-

Review problem statements and evaluation materials for technical quality

-

Contribute recommendations for improving model performance

-

Incorporate feedback into evolving authoring and evaluation workflows

-

Deliver high-quality work within required project timelines

Ideal Profile

-

Advanced degree such as an MS or PhD in a relevant engineering discipline, or substantial equivalent industry experience

-

8+ years of experience is highly valuable for Aerodynamics, Circuit Design, or Mechanical Engineering specialisations

-

5+ years of experience is highly valuable for CAD or Mechanical Design specialisations

-

At least 5 years of hands-on technical experience in a relevant engineering domain

-

Strong practical expertise in areas such as mechanical design, aerodynamic analysis, materials selection, or circuit/system development

-

Demonstrated technical-problem authoring experience is highly advantageous

-

Experience with olympiad problem committees, licensure examination writing, academic qualifying examinations, standards committees, or technical competitions is especially relevant

-

Strong evidence of technical rigor through publications, patents, awards, competition results, or professional committee work is valuable

-

Professional-level English proficiency

-

Excellent written and verbal technical communication skills

-

Familiarity with relevant industry-standard tools such as AutoCAD, CAD suites, CFD/FEA software, EDA tools, or laboratory equipment

-

Strong ability to work independently in a remote project environment

-

No prior AI-training or model-evaluation experience is required

Engagement Details

-

Independent contractor engagement

-

Fully remote

-

Displayed compensation range: $60–$110/hour

-

Actual compensation structure is output-based, with payment made per task that meets project specifications

-

Task completion time may vary depending on individual experience and workflow

-

Minimum weekly submission requirements apply; the source does not specify the exact number of required tasks

-

Work will involve technical problem authoring, AI-response evaluation, engineering analysis, structured feedback, and quality assurance

-

Assignments may span aerodynamics, materials science, CAD/mechanical design, circuit design, mechanical engineering, and related domains

-

Strong domain expertise and rigorous engineering judgement are central to this engagement

-

Roles are typically filled within approximately 48 hours

-

Selected experts are expected to begin initial tasks within approximately 24–48 hours after onboarding

-

Project scope, workload, engineering domains, and evaluation requirements may evolve depending on project needs

-

Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, or other third party
