About the role

At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs — and your deep technical knowledge is exactly what's needed to make these models smarter, more accurate, and more reliable.

You'll design complex engineering challenges, author rigorous solutions, and audit AI-generated outputs across areas like computer architecture, embedded systems, and hardware-software co-design. Your expertise will directly shape how AI reasons about some of the most technically demanding problems in the field.

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs and AI teams.
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule.
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration.
  • Gain firsthand exposure to how advanced LLMs are built and trained.
  • Meaningful work that directly improves the technical reasoning of next-generation AI.
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.

Responsibilities

  • Design Advanced Problems — Create challenging computer engineering scenarios spanning RISC-V/ARM architecture, FPGA development, memory management, and hardware-software co-design.
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions — Write rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions including assembly code, HDL snippets, and architectural diagrams that serve as reference responses for AI training.
  • Audit AI Outputs — Evaluate AI-generated code (C/C++, Verilog, VHDL), logic gate designs, and OS kernels for technical accuracy, efficiency, and adherence to industry standards.
  • Refine AI Reasoning — Identify logical errors such as race conditions, memory leaks, or improper timing constraints, and provide structured feedback to improve model reasoning.

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 and low-level software concepts clearly and concisely in writing.
  • High attention to detail — comfortable working at the level of bit operations, clock-cycle timing, and technical documentation.

Preferred skills

  • Experience with data annotation, data quality, or AI evaluation workflows.
  • Proficiency in engineering tools such as MATLAB, ANSYS, or simulation environments.
  • Familiarity with IoT, networking, distributed systems, or hardware security.

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 experience required.
