AI Instructor – AI for engineers

Teach civil, mechanical, electrical and industrial engineers to run failure analysis and specification reviews with AI, checking units, clauses and sources themselves. You teach in English, remotely, from a class kit made ready for you, and you are paid for each class you teach.

What the work is for

YPAI Learn teaches AI for the work of each profession in live classes. Your classes take engineers from an invented machine to a failure mode and effects analysis, and from a supplier submittal to a clause-by-clause comparison with the project specification, and teach them to check units, standards and references.

The work

• Teach the live class “Draft an FMEA with AI and challenge every failure mode it lists”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Teach the live class “Compare a supplier submittal with the project specification using AI”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Show live how to give AI an invented pump or conveyor description and ask for failure modes, causes and controls, then rate severity, occurrence and detection as a team.
• Walk learners through a made-up submittal review: list where the product data departs from the specification clause by clause, and confirm each point in the documents.
• Help engineers when the AI gets units, standard clauses or editions wrong, and show why calculations and sign-off stay with the engineer.

What to expect

• Classes are live and online, taught in English to engineers in many countries, and you can also list in the application the other languages you teach in.
• The kit per class brings a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo on an invented machine or project, and a backup recording of the demo.
• From your own computer you teach remotely, over a stable connection with camera and microphone, with the class’s sample drawings and documents ready to share.
• Passing the instructor test for a class is the step before you first teach it.
• Before a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.
• Each invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.

What you bring

• An FMEA, design review, report or specification check you did with AI in engineering work, shown with invented project details.
• Experience mentoring graduate engineers, running technical training or leading design reviews.
• Patience with engineers who will test the AI on units and standards before they accept anything it says.

You need

• Hands-on use of AI in engineering work, for example reports, specifications, design reviews or maintenance analysis.
• Experience as a civil, mechanical, electrical or industrial engineer, now or in the past.
• Fluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.
• 18 years or older.

Good to know

• If your engineering employer requires approval for outside work under your contract, arrange it before taking an assignment.
• Teaching volume depends on how many engineers sign up for the classes, and each invitation gives the expected time commitment.
• You can apply for free, and you do not need to buy or take a YPAI Learn course.
