About the Job
We are seeking an experienced Chief Engineer or Senior Mechanical Engineer to contribute to a specialized AI training project focused on complex, real-world engineering workflows.
This role is designed for senior engineering professionals with a strong background in mechanical design, multidisciplinary project leadership, engineering analysis, and technical execution. You will use your industry experience to design realistic engineering projects, translate complex objectives into practical technical requirements, coordinate contributions from different engineering disciplines, and establish measurable evaluation criteria.
The ideal candidate has experience leading projects from initial concept through design, manufacturing, testing, and delivery, and can break down complex engineering challenges into structured tasks with clear technical expectations. Previous AI experience is not required.
Key Responsibilities
Design realistic engineering projects involving mechanical design, engineering analysis, manufacturing, and testing.
Develop project scenarios that reflect practical engineering challenges and industry workflows.
Translate high-level project objectives into detailed engineering requirements, operating constraints, and measurable acceptance criteria.
Break complex engineering problems into interconnected tasks with clearly defined inputs, outputs, dependencies, and deliverables.
Define responsibilities and technical contributions for specialists across multiple engineering disciplines.
Establish technical evaluation criteria to assess the quality, feasibility, and completeness of engineering solutions.
Apply engineering judgment to assess design decisions, technical trade-offs, and project constraints.
Incorporate design verification, manufacturing considerations, testing procedures, and root-cause analysis into project workflows.
Ensure that project tasks reflect realistic engineering standards, processes, and professional practices.
Requirements
Substantial professional experience as a Chief Engineer, Senior Mechanical Engineer, or in a comparable engineering leadership position.
Proven experience leading complex engineering projects involving multiple technical disciplines.
Strong expertise in mechanical design and engineering analysis.
Practical knowledge of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) principles.
Experience with technical verification, engineering testing, and root-cause analysis.
Ability to translate complex engineering objectives into structured requirements, technical tasks, and measurable acceptance criteria.
Experience coordinating technical contributions and managing dependencies across engineering teams.
English proficiency at B2 level or higher.
Strong analytical, organizational, and technical communication skills.
Lead the design of realistic engineering project workflows, translating complex objectives into requirements, tasks, and evaluation criteria while applying mechanical engineering judgment across design, manufacturing, and testing.
Lead the design of realistic engineering project workflows, translating complex objectives into requirements, coordinating multidisciplinary contributions, and defining measurable criteria for evaluating technical solutions.
Architect and deliver production-ready mechanical and thermal designs for complex electronic systems, serving as a client-facing technical lead while coordinating partners, project delivery, and design quality.
Supports and improves installed material handling systems by designing upgrades and retrofits, troubleshooting field issues, and coordinating service engineering projects to strengthen reliability and maintainability.
Investigate and reconstruct heavy-truck collisions by analyzing scene evidence, vehicle systems, electronic data, and trucking records, then deliver defensible engineering findings through reports and expert testimony.
