Our pipeline performance system ensures both quality and velocity.
Role Title: Marine Geology SME - Core Logging & Sedimentology
Role Type: Contractor
Location: Remote
micro1 is engaging Marine Geology SME - Core Logging & Sedimentology experts to contribute to a client's project focused on the marine sciences. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.
Scope of Work
Perform rigorous, statement-by-statement validation of marine geology and sedimentology reference answers, ensuring technical accuracy and clarity.
Assess AI-generated outputs related to marine lithology, sedimentary structures, grain-size classifications, and offshore core sampling protocols.
Provide clear, detailed feedback and suggested improvements on core logging and sediment identification content.
Apply advanced knowledge of marine sedimentology to evaluate sediment and ocean floor descriptions, including soil and rock layer identification.
Utilize experience with offshore core logging and visual core description to review and annotate case studies and test sets.
Document insights, ambiguities, and edge cases encountered during content review, supporting continuous improvement.
Preferred Qualifications
Advanced qualification in Marine Geology, Marine Sedimentology, or a closely related discipline.
Extensive hands-on experience with core logging, sediment sampling, and core description (visual and analytical) in offshore or marine settings.
Proven expertise in identifying marine sediments, sedimentary structures, and characterizing soil and rock layers in oceanic environments.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with an emphasis on precise technical articulation and critical review.
Background in conducting or supervising offshore sedimentological surveys or participating in marine core sampling projects.
Familiarity with standard offshore sampling practices and the nuances of visual core description protocols.
Experience reviewing or developing educational, reference, or training materials in the earth sciences is a plus.
