The Work
You will create and assess difficult technical problems for AI training and model evaluation. Your work will test whether an AI system can apply aerospace engineering knowledge accurately under realistic constraints.
- Design challenging problems in aerodynamics, propulsion, structures and materials, guidance, navigation and control, orbital mechanics, systems engineering, avionics, or flight software.
- Provide a correct analysis and explain the reasoning clearly enough for another expert to verify.
- Set objective grading criteria that separate correct answers from plausible but technically wrong answers.
- Review problems from other contributors for technical accuracy and sound methods.
- Flag problems that are ambiguous or cannot be graded reliably instead of submitting unreliable work.

About AI Training Work
AI training work uses human judgment to prepare examples and evaluate answers that help artificial intelligence systems improve. Experienced specialists are needed for difficult subjects because they can spot subtle errors, explain sound reasoning, and set fair standards for correct answers.
