This is not a traditional job — you'll draw on your hands-on experience in parametric CAD, GD&T, and design for manufacturing to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI reason like a practicing design engineer. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside your current role. What You'll Do Use your domain expertise to create expert-level mechanical design problems and scenarios grounded in real CAD, tolerancing, and manufacturing workflows Review and evaluate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, manufacturability, and alignment with how the work is actually done Provide structured written feedback to help improve AI model performance Complete tasks at your own pace with no set schedule or minimum hour requirement Qualifications Ideal candidates meet all three of the following: Industry experience — senior-level, with a portfolio of manufactured designs and complex GD&T/FEA work. A strong portfolio carries more weight than an advanced degree alone Degree — BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering paired with hands-on industry experience Sub-domain depth — demonstrated expertise in one of the following areas: Parametric CAD (SolidWorks, CATIA, Fusion 360, Onshape) GD&T and design for manufacturing (DFM) FEA/simulation Candidates who meet at least 2 of the 3 qualifications above are also encouraged to apply. Additional qualifications (not required, but strengthen your application) Proficiency across multiple CAD platforms and simulation environments A portfolio demonstrating designs taken from concept through manufacturing Required for all applicants Must have Indian work authorization Strong written communication and attention to detail Ability to explain complex mechanical design 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.
