About the role

Your deep technical knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons about hardware design, computer architecture, embedded systems, and low-level software — making a real impact on the next generation of intelligent systems.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role that fits around your schedule. No prior AI experience is needed — just strong domain expertise and a passion for technical precision.

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs and AI teams.
  • Fully remote and async — work on your own schedule, from anywhere.
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration.
  • Gain rare, hands-on exposure to how frontier AI models are trained and evaluated.
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.

Responsibilities

  • Design Complex Engineering Challenges — Create advanced, domain-specific problems spanning RISC-V/ARM architecture, FPGA development, memory management, hardware-software co-design, and more.
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions including assembly code, HDL snippets, and architectural diagrams that serve as reference-quality training data.
  • Audit AI-Generated Code — Evaluate AI outputs in C/C++, Verilog, and VHDL for technical accuracy, efficiency, and adherence to industry standards.
  • Refine AI Reasoning — Identify flaws in AI logic — such as race conditions, memory leaks, or improper timing constraints — and provide structured feedback to improve model performance.
  • Challenge Model Limits — Stress-test AI reasoning across computer architecture, embedded systems, networking, distributed systems, hardware security, and operating systems.

Required skills

  • Strong foundational knowledge in one or more of: Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Digital Logic Design, or Operating Systems.
  • Able to communicate complex hardware concepts and low-level software logic clearly in writing.
  • High attention to detail — comfortable working at the level of bit operations, clock-cycle timing, and technical specifications.

Preferred skills

  • Experience with data annotation, data quality assurance, or evaluation systems.
  • Proficiency with engineering tools such as MATLAB, SolidWorks, or ANSYS.
  • Familiarity with hardware description languages (Verilog, VHDL) or embedded development environments.

Experience and education

  • Holds or is pursuing a Master's or PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science (hardware focus), or a closely related field.
  • No prior AI or data annotation experience required.
