Key Responsibilities:
As a contributor, you will engage in a variety of tasks, which may include:
- Creating mechanical engineering problems for graduate and industry levels based on practical applications.
- Evaluating AI-generated solutions for accuracy, underlying assumptions, and engineering rationale.
- Validating analytical or numerical results through Python (including libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, and Pandas).
- Enhancing AI reasoning to conform with fundamental principles and recognized engineering standards.
- Applying structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem-solving methodologies.
Desired Qualifications:
This role is ideal for mechanical engineers with Python expertise who are open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Candidates should ideally possess:
- A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, such as Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Mechanical Design, or Computational Mechanics.
- A minimum of 3 years of professional mechanical engineering experience.
- Proficiency in written English (C1/C2 level).
- Strong Python skills for numerical validation tasks.
- A reliable internet connection.
Professional certifications (e.g., PE, CEng, PMP) and experience with international or applied projects are advantageous.
Application Process:
Apply → Pass qualifications → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get compensated.
Project Expectations:
Tasks are estimated to require approximately 10–20 hours per week during active phases, depending on project needs. This is an estimation and not a guaranteed workload.
Compensation:
Contributors can earn up to $50 per hour, based on their experience and the pace of their contributions. Compensation may vary across projects based on the scope, complexity, and required expertise.
