Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.\n\nWhat This Opportunity Involves\nWhile each project involves unique tasks, contributors may:\n\nDesign graduate- and industry-level mechanical engineering problems grounded in real practice\n\nEvaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, assumptions, and engineering logic\n\nValidate analytical or numerical results using Python (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas)\n\nImprove AI reasoning to align with first principles and accepted engineering standards\n\nApply structured scoring criteria to assess multi-step problem solving.\n\nWhat We Look For\nThis opportunity is a good fit for mechanical engineers with an experience in python open to part-time, non-permanent projects. Ideally, contributors will have:\n\nDegree in Mechanical Engineering or related fields, e.g. Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Mechanical Design, Computational Mechanics, etc.\n\n3+ years of professional mechanical engineering experience\n\nStrong written English (C1/C2)\n\nStrong Python proficiency for numerical validation\n\nStable internet connection\n\nProfessional certifications (e.g., PE, CEng, PMP) and experience in international or applied projects are an advantage.\n\nHow It Works\nApply → Pass qualification(s) → Join a project → Complete tasks → Get paid\n\nProject time expectations\nFor this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10-20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active.\n\nPayment\n\nPaid contributions, with rates up to $55/hour*\n\nFixed project rate or individual rates, depending on the project\n\nSome projects include incentive payments\n\nNote: Rates vary based on expertise, skills assessment, location, project needs, and other factors.
