Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation isproject-based, not permanent employment.
What this opportunity involves
While each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:
* Design graduate- and industry-level mechanical engineering problems grounded in real practice.
* Evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, assumptions, and engineering logic.
* Validate analytical or numerical results using Python (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas).
* Improve AI reasoning to align with first principles and accepted engineering standards.
* Apply structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem solving.
What we look for
This opportunity is a good fit for mechanical engineers with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:
* Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related fields, e.g. Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Mechanical Design, Computational Mechanics, etc.
* 3+ years of professional mechanical engineering experience
* Strong written English (C1/C2)
* Strong Python proficiency for numerical validation
* Stable internet connection
Professional certifications (e.g., PE, CEng, PMP) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage.
