Hardware Engineering Expert (MSc/PhD)

Quick Facts

• Role: Hardware Engineering Expert (MSc or PhD)

• Work model: Fully remote (worldwide)

• Type: Contractor (~15 hours/week)

• Pay: $60–$120/hour (output-based per task)

• Schedule: Flexible; choose days/hours

Description

You will contribute to AI training projects focused on complex, real-world engineering problems by creating, solving, and evaluating hardware engineering challenges. The work requires quantitative reasoning, sound engineering judgment, and solutions that can be independently verified.

Responsibilities

• Create technically rigorous, self-contained hardware engineering problems based on realistic industry or research scenarios.

• Develop clear reference solutions using engineering calculations, simulations, scripts, or experimental reasoning.

• Validate results using appropriate engineering tools when relevant.

Requirements

• MSc or PhD in a relevant engineering/physics field.

• Significant experience in hardware engineering, product development, systems integration, testing, validation, reliability, or failure analysis.

• Proven ownership of a substantial hardware engineering problem (e.g., production system, validated model vs. test data, test system development, or failure diagnosis).

• Experience working with Coding Agents is required.

Benefits

• Fully remote role with a flexible schedule.

• Output-based compensation per task.

• Ability to begin immediately if selected (first task within 24–48 hours after onboarding).
