About the role

Your deep domain knowledge will directly shape how AI understands and reasons through complex engineering problems — from circuit analysis to power systems to signal processing.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role designed to fit around your existing schedule. Whether you're a grad student, a working engineer, or a seasoned professional, your expertise has real value here.

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside top research labs and AI teams.
  • Fully remote and asynchronous — work on your own schedule, from anywhere.
  • Freelance perks: full autonomy, flexibility, and global collaboration.
  • Gain rare, first-hand exposure to how advanced LLMs are trained and evaluated.
  • Meaningful work — your engineering expertise directly improves AI safety and accuracy.
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.

Responsibilities

  • Design challenging problems across core EE domains — including circuit analysis, power systems, signal processing, electromagnetics, control systems, and embedded systems — to rigorously test AI performance.
  • Author gold-standard solutions by writing detailed, step-by-step technical responses that serve as benchmarks for AI learning.
  • Audit AI outputs — evaluate generated code, circuit diagrams, and mathematical proofs for correctness, safety, and compliance with engineering standards (IEEE, NEC, etc.).
  • Improve AI reasoning by identifying logical flaws and providing structured, actionable feedback that helps models think more like expert engineers.

Required skills

  • Strong foundational knowledge in one or more areas: VLSI, control systems, telecommunications, power electronics, or signal processing.
  • Able to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and precisely in writing.
  • Detail-oriented — you catch errors in equations, circuit logic, and technical documentation that others miss.

Preferred skills

  • Experience with data annotation, data labeling, or evaluation systems.
  • Familiarity with large language models (LLMs) or AI-generated content review.
  • Background in simulation tools such as MATLAB, SPICE, or similar.

Experience and education

  • Pursuing or holding a Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a closely related field.
  • No prior AI or data annotation experience required.
