We are looking for a highly skilled Mechanical Engineering Expert to contribute to an AI training project involving engineering design physical modeling simulation technical problem-solving and Python.
The work involves creating solving reviewing and validating engineering tasks across structural thermal mechanical and multiphysics domains. A representative task may require translating physical requirements into a computational model generating the required geometry or mesh applying materials and boundary conditions running an engineering simulation and determining whether the resulting artifact and analysis satisfy the applicable physical and design constraints.
This is a very coding heavy role. Candidates but have experience using coding agents with python in their workflow.
- Solve and validate mechanical-engineering problems involving design analysis simulation testing or R&D.
- Translate physical systems and engineering requirements into analytical or computational models.
- Create or modify geometry meshes materials loads contacts constraints and solver inputs.
- Perform structural thermal dynamic fatigue buckling vibration or related analyses.
- Use Python to automate model preparation simulation parameter sweeps optimization postprocessing and verification.
- An MS or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline; or
- A BS in Mechanical Engineering plus at least 12 years of relevant professional experience in mechanical design analysis simulation testing or R&D.
- Strong understanding of applied mechanics and mechanical-engineering fundamentals.
- Experience developing analytical computational or simulation-based engineering solutions.
- Practical proficiency with Python and coding agents.
Relevant tools may include CalculiX Gmsh Elmer FEniCSx CadQuery OpenSCAD OpenFOAM or similar programmatic engineering software. Experience with an equivalent CLI-accessible tool is acceptable.
Relevant Python tools may include NumPy SciPy SymPy pandas Matplotlib Jupyter CAD or meshing APIs finite-element libraries optimization packages or domain-specific scientific tools. No single library is mandatory.
- Apply to the role and complete the screening questions.
- Complete an AI interview of approximately 30 minutes.
- Complete the hiring manager review.
Compensation is output-based. Experts are paid per task that meets the project specifications. The time required to complete each task may vary depending on the experts experience and workflow.
Minimum submission requirements apply.
We typically fill roles within 48 hours and are looking for experts who are ready to begin immediately. If selected you will be expected to start your first task within 2448 hours of completing onboarding.
