EngineeringMechanical Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Engineering Expert to contribute to an AI training project focused on engineering design, physical modeling, simulation, and computational problem-solving. In this role, you will apply advanced engineering knowledge to create, solve, review, and validate technical tasks across structural, thermal, mechanical, and multiphysics domains. You will translate physical requirements into analytical and computational models, develop simulation inputs, and assess whether engineering solutions satisfy relevant physical and design constraints. The position combines deep mechanical engineering expertise with intensive coding and the practical use of AI coding agents. You will help improve the technical accuracy and reliability of AI systems by applying rigorous engineering principles to complex problems. This fully remote, independent contractor opportunity is suited to an engineer who enjoys technical challenges and can deliver high-quality work autonomously.

You will apply mechanical engineering principles and computational techniques to develop, evaluate, and validate engineering problems and their solutions. Your responsibilities will include:

Solve and validate mechanical engineering problems involving design, analysis, simulation, testing, and research and development.
Translate physical systems, design specifications, and engineering requirements into appropriate analytical or computational models.
Develop, modify, and evaluate engineering geometry and meshes for simulation and analysis tasks.
Configure materials, loads, boundary conditions, contacts, constraints, and solver inputs to accurately represent physical systems.
Conduct and assess engineering simulations across structural, thermal, mechanical, and multiphysics applications.
Evaluate simulation results and determine whether the resulting models, artifacts, and analyses satisfy applicable physical principles and design constraints.
Create, review, and refine technical engineering tasks used to support AI training and evaluation.
Apply coding-intensive workflows to develop computational solutions, automate engineering processes, and validate technical outputs.
Use AI coding agents as part of the engineering workflow to support implementation, problem-solving, and technical validation.
Identify errors, inconsistencies, or limitations in engineering models and propose appropriate corrections based on sound engineering judgment.
