Remote | Engineering Assessment Specialist — $35–$75/hour
24-MAGFull Description
We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for expert engineers with strong academic judgment, deep subject matter expertise, and the ability to author and review rigorous assessment content across advanced engineering domains.
This role supports an exciting collaboration with leading AI companies focused on improving advanced AI systems through high-quality academic question design, solution verification, and benchmark development across core areas of engineering.
Selected professionals will create or review challenging multiple-choice questions, assess clarity and rigor, rate difficulty, write step-by-step solutions, provide academic references, and help improve overall model quality. This opportunity is especially well-suited to detail-oriented engineering experts who are comfortable translating advanced technical knowledge into precise, self-contained assessment content that supports frontier model evaluation.
Key Responsibilities
Professionals in this role may contribute to:
Question Authoring for AI Evaluation
Create original, challenging multiple-choice questions in assigned areas of engineering expertise
Ensure that questions test deep conceptual understanding rather than surface-level recall
Help ensure that prompts are unambiguous, self-contained, and precisely defined
Question Verification & Quality Review
Review pre-written questions for accuracy, clarity, rigor, completeness, and solvability
Edit question content where needed and document any changes made
Help maintain high standards for precision, quality, and consistency across benchmark tasks
Solution Writing & Benchmark Support
Rate question difficulty across medium, hard, and expert levels
Provide one correct answer and nine plausible but subtly incorrect alternatives
Write step-by-step solutions in markdown format with clear, concise intermediate steps
Supply academic references from reputable sources to support question quality and correctness
Ideal Profile
Strong candidates may have:
A PhD or doctoral candidacy in Engineering or a closely related field
Strong command of graduate-level engineering principles, applied mathematics, and domain-specific standards
Excellent written English and the ability to express complex ideas clearly and concisely
Deep expertise in one or more areas such as mechanical and thermal engineering, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, materials science and engineering, industrial and systems engineering, civil engineering, or related engineering domains
Preferred Qualifications
A Master's degree with exceptional depth in a specific engineering subdomain
Professional engineering licensure or industry experience
Strong consistency in writing rigorous academic content and verifying technical precision
Ability to evaluate both conceptual depth and assessment design quality across repeated tasks
