We are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for experienced Mechanical Engineering professionals with strong expertise in engineering mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, structural analysis, vibrations, manufacturing, simulation, and R&D to contribute to an advanced AI training and mechanical-engineering evaluation project. Selected professionals will solve and review advanced mechanical-engineering problems, assess AI-generated technical responses, analyse realistic design and R&D scenarios, and provide rigorous feedback grounded in professional engineering practice. No prior experience in AI is required. Key Responsibilities - Mechanical, Thermal & Fluid Analysis - Solve advanced mechanical-engineering problems using first-principles reasoning - Analyse statics, dynamics, loads, stresses, deformation, and structural behaviour - Evaluate thermodynamic systems, energy balances, heat transfer, and thermal performance - Analyse fluid-flow behaviour, pressure, velocity, losses, and related assumptions - Assess boundary conditions, constraints, modelling choices, and alternative solution approaches - Simulation, Vibrations & Engineering Design Review - FEA and simulation setups, including meshes, loads, constraints, and material assumptions - Evaluate structural and thermal results against analytical calculations or expected physical behaviour - Analyse vibration, resonance, damping, natural frequencies, and dynamic response - Incorporate manufacturing, product-development, reliability, and practical design considerations - Identify modelling errors, unrealistic assumptions, or opportunities to improve robustness and manufacturability - AI Evaluation & Technical Review - Review AI-generated mechanical-engineering responses for technical correctness and completeness - Identify calculation errors, weak assumptions, or flawed engineering reasoning - Compare alternative approaches and distinguish substantive issues from acceptable solutions - Provide clear, structured written feedback supporting model improvement - Collaborate remotely with other subject-matter experts and project participants Ideal Profile - MS or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, or BS in Mechanical Engineering with 8+ years of relevant industry experience - At least 5 years of hands-on experience in mechanical design, analysis, or R&D - Strong expertise in statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer - Demonstrated proficiency with FEA, structural analysis, and vibration or dynamic-system analysis - Ability to combine finite-element methods, hand calculations, and experimental validation - Familiarity with manufacturing and product-development environments - Knowledge of ASME BPVC, related ASME codes, and design-for-reliability practices is advantageous - Experience with ANSYS, Abaqus, Nastran, or comparable simulation tools is valuable - Familiarity with CAD platforms is beneficial - Strong analytical, critical-thinking, and technical communication skills - Evidence of rigorous technical-review or problem-authoring experience, including standards work, publications, awards, research recognition, or comparable achievements, is highly valued - No prior AI-training or model-evaluation experience is required Engagement Details - Independent contractor engagement - Fully remote - Displayed compensation range: $60–$100/hour - Actual compensation structure is output-based, with payment made per task that meets project specifications - Task completion time may vary depending on experience and workflow - Minimum weekly submission requirements apply; the source does not specify the exact number of required tasks - Work will involve engineering mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, FEA, vibrations, manufacturing, technical analysis, and AI-generated engineering-content evaluation - 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 topics, and evaluation standards may evolve depending on project requirements - Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, manufacturer, research institution, engineering organisation, or other third party About the Platform - This opportunity is available through 24-MAG LLC - We connect experienced professionals with remote consulting opportunities across technical, evaluation, and project-based workstreams - By submitting this application, you acknowledge that your information may be processed by 24-MAG LLC for recruitment and opportunity matching in accordance with our Privacy Policy: https://www.24-mag.com/privacy-policy
