Aerospace Engineers - AI Trainer (Contract)

Overview

Handshake is recruiting Aerospace Engineer Professionals to contribute to an hourly, temporary AI research project—but there’s no AI experience needed. In this program, you’ll leverage your professional experience to evaluate what AI models produce in your field, assess content related to your field of work, and deliver clear, structured feedback that strengthens the model’s understanding of your workplace tasks and language. The Handshake AI opportunity runs year-round, with project opportunities opening periodically across different areas of expertise.

Details

• The position is remote and asynchronous; work independently from wherever you are.

• The hours are flexible, with no minimum commitment, but most average 5-20 hrs

• The work includes developing prompts for AI models that reflect your field, and then evaluating responses.

• You’ll learn new skills and contribute to how AI is used in your field

• Your placement into a project will be dependent on project availability—if you apply now and can’t work on this project, more will be available soon.

Qualifications

• You have at least 4 years of professional experience

• The examples below reflect the types of real-world responsibilities that you might have had in your role that will give you the context needed to evaluate and train high-quality AI models

• Formulate mathematical models or other computer analysis methods to develop, evaluate, or modify designs in accordance with customer engineering requirements.

• Plan or conduct experimental, environmental, operational, or stress tests on models or prototypes of aircraft or aerospace systems and equipment.

• Develop conceptual designs for aeronautical or aerospace products or systems to meet customer requirements or comply with environmental regulations.

• Plan or coordinate the investigation and resolution of customer-reported technical issues with aircraft or aerospace vehicles.

• Write technical reports and documentation, such as handbooks or bulletins, for engineering staff, management, or customers.

• Direct or coordinate the activities of engineering or technical personnel involved in the design, fabrication, modification, or testing of aerospace products.

• Evaluate product data or design outputs from inspections or reports for compliance with engineering principles, customer requirements, environmental regulations, and quality standards.

• Develop design criteria for aeronautical or aerospace products or systems, including testing methods, production costs, quality standards, environmental standards, and delivery timelines.

• Analyze project requests, proposals, or engineering data to assess feasibility, manufacturability, cost, and production timelines.

• Maintain records of performance reports for future reference and analysis.

• Diagnose performance issues by reviewing customer or field engineer reports or by inspecting malfunctioning or damaged products.

• Direct aerospace research and development programs.

• Evaluate and approve vendor selections by reviewing past performance or new offerings.

• Design new or modify existing aerospace systems to reduce pollutant emissions, including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and smoke.

• Design or engineer filtration systems to reduce harmful emissions.

• Develop and test autonomous systems for uncrewed aerospace vehicles.

• Develop software for aerospace systems.

• Evaluate biofuel performance specifications to determine feasibility for aerospace applications.

• You’re able to participate in asynchronous work in partnership with leading AI labs.
