About this job

DataAnnotation seeks an experienced hardware engineer to evaluate how AI models handle real electrical and electronics engineering problems. You will design realistic engineering challenges, run them through frontier AI models, judge the outputs against professional standards, and provide detailed written critiques that help train the next generation of AI engineering tools.

What you'll do

  • Design challenging, realistic engineering problems such as circuits, control loops, or power stages from your own practice.
  • Run problems through frontier AI models and evaluate the output against your professional engineering standard.
  • Compare model versions on identical prompts and identify which performed better and where each fell short.
  • Critique model-generated derivations, schematics, component selections, and calculations with detailed reasoning.
