**Mechanical Engineering -- AI Trainer** **About The Role** We're looking for mechanical engineers 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 FEA. This is a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of engineering and artificial intelligence, contributing to some of the most advanced AI systems being built today. * Organization: Alignerr * Type: Hourly Contract * Location: Remote * Commitment: 10--40 hours/week **What You'll Do** * Design Complex Engineering Problems --- Craft advanced, multi-domain challenges across areas like FEA, heat transfer, kinematics, and material science to rigorously test AI performance * Author Ground-Truth Solutions --- Develop precise, step-by-step technical solutions and benchmark responses that AI models use as a gold standard for learning * 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) * Refine Model Thinking --- Identify logical errors in AI reasoning --- such as incorrect force distributions, energy conservation violations, or flawed failure analysis --- and provide structured feedback to strengthen model performance **Who You Are** * Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline * Strong foundational expertise in one or more of: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes * Able to communicate complex physical phenomena and mathematical concepts clearly and concisely in writing * Highly detail-oriented --- comfortable checking derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints with precision * No prior AI experience required **Nice to Have** * Experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation workflows * Proficiency with engineering software such as SolidWorks, MATLAB, or ANSYS * Familiarity with evaluating simulation outputs or AI-generated technical code **Why Join Us** * Work on genuinely cutting-edge AI projects in collaboration with world-leading research labs * Fully remote and flexible --- work on your own schedule, from anywhere * Freelance autonomy with the opportunity to contribute to meaningful, high-impact work * Gain rare insight into how advanced large language models (LLMs) are trained and improved * Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
