This is not a traditional engineering role—you’ll draw on your hands-on industry experience in embedded systems, firmware, digital signal processing, RF, or wireless communications to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI reason like a practicing embedded or RF engineer. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that you can take on alongside your current role. What You’ll Do Create expert-level embedded systems, DSP, and RF engineering problems and scenarios grounded in real design, development, testing, debugging, and deployment workflows Review AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, practical feasibility, and alignment with industry standards and engineering practice Evaluate designs, calculations, assumptions, methodologies, and recommendations involving embedded firmware, real-time systems, signal processing, RF systems, wireless communications, and related topics Assess AI-generated technical work across areas such as firmware architecture, hardware/software integration, signal analysis, RF design, communications systems, and embedded debugging Provide clear, structured written feedback to help improve AI model performance Complete tasks at your own pace, with no set schedule or minimum-hour requirement Project Details Work remotely and asynchronously from wherever you are. Set your own schedule with no minimum time requirement. Project placement depends on current availability. If this opportunity is full, additional projects will become available soon. Qualifications Ideal candidates meet all three of the following: Industry experience — 2+ years of hands-on embedded systems, DSP, RF, or related engineering experience in industry Degree — MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field. A BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering also qualifies when paired with strong industry experience Embedded and RF expertise — demonstrated depth in one or more of the following areas: Embedded firmware and software development Real-time and safety-critical systems Digital signal processing and signal analysis RF circuit and system design Antenna design and electromagnetic systems Wireless communications and communication protocols Hardware/software integration Embedded hardware design, testing, and debugging Candidates who meet two of the three criteria above are also encouraged to apply. Additional Qualifications These are not required but will strengthen your application: Proficiency with engineering and development tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, Python, SPICE, LTspice, Altium, KiCad, GNU Radio, or comparable environments Experience with microcontrollers, microprocessors, FPGAs, SoCs, or other embedded computing platforms Experience with RF test and measurement equipment such as spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, or software-defined radios Experience with wireless standards and technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, GNSS, LoRa, or other RF communication systems Experience with PCB design, signal integrity, power integrity, EMI/EMC, or hardware validation Experience at an embedded systems, semiconductor, telecommunications, aerospace, defense, automotive, consumer electronics, or engineering technology company Required for All Applicants Based in Canada Strong written communication and attention to detail Ability to explain complex embedded systems, DSP, and RF concepts clearly Ability to work independently in a remote, asynchronous environment The application process Sign up and create an account Verify your identity Join and onboard into relevant projects Start working and earning Sign up now The career network for the AI economy Students Who's hiring Career tips Handshake AI Fellowship Program Opportunities Legal Help center Employers Pricing Request a demo Career centers Marketing toolkit Security Request demo Company About Join us Press Blog Support Careers Help center Contact Legal hub Your Privacy Choices ©2026 Handshake.
