The work
You will create challenging, research-level problems that test and train AI models. Your work will use real mechanical and aerospace test data and practical engineering judgment.
You will develop technically accurate problems with clear supporting explanations. Assignments may draw on performance trials, vibration and modal surveys, rig or flight tests, commissioning, condition monitoring, and failure investigations.
- Write research-level problems based on mechanical and aerospace test engineering.
- Use real test data to create accurate problems and explanations.
- Explain engineering judgments clearly and document each contribution.
- Manage your own time on independent, flexible, task-based assignments.
What it pays and takes
Three or more years of hands-on test, commissioning, or condition-monitoring experience is preferred, but a related degree and other evidence of expertise may also help.
- Pay: $50 per hour.
- Work type: Independent contractor, with flexible, task-based assignments.
- Location: Open to candidates in the countries listed for this role.
- Language: Fluent English.
- Required: Hands-on experience working with your own real test data.
- Required: Working knowledge of Python or a similar language for reducing and analyzing test data.
- Required: Clear technical writing, sound engineering judgment, and the ability to work independently.
- Required: Ability to work as an individual contractor without visa sponsorship.
- Helpful: Bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree in mechanical or aerospace engineering.
- Helpful: Acceptance or performance test report writing, or experience with ISO 10816/20816, API 670, or ASME PTC.
- Helpful: Chartered Engineer or PE credentials, public code, a thesis, technical papers, or prior AI evaluation, data annotation, or data-labeling experience.
