A job counts in each area of expertise it asks for. Rows need at least 8 published rates.
This freelance role centers on building high-fidelity physics simulations of robots, including accurate robot models, simulation environments, and pipelines that help robots learn to walk, grasp, and navigate. It suits engineers experienced with robotics simulators such as MuJoCo, Isaac Sim, or Gazebo who want to narrow the gap between virtual testing and real-world robot behavior. The work is hourly and remote, with written collaboration conducted in English.
This contract role centers on building and refining physics simulation environments in MuJoCo so that AI agents can learn locomotion and manipulation tasks. It suits experienced robotics and reinforcement learning practitioners who can work independently and asynchronously with research teams.
This remote contract role centers on building and refining MuJoCo physics simulation environments where AI agents learn locomotion, manipulation, and coordination tasks. It is aimed at experienced robotics and machine learning practitioners who are comfortable with reinforcement learning, robot control, and debugging contact dynamics.
This role consists of solving and validating aerodynamics and fluid dynamics problems using computational tools and code. You will develop numerical models, run CFD simulations via command-line interfaces, and automate workflows with Python. The sought profile is an aerodynamics expert with solid experience in fluid mechanics and programming.

FAQ
Among the 77 open Engineering jobs that publish an hourly rate in USD, the median published rate is $75 per hour, and half of them fall between $60 and $95. Published rates run from $10 to $200 per hour.
By median published rate on today's open Engineering jobs: DataAnnotation $83 per hour (10 jobs), Alignerr $71 per hour (12 jobs), micro1 $70 per hour (34 jobs), Mercor $70 per hour (21 jobs). A platform with fewer than 8 published rates in this field is not ranked.
From the Engineering jobs open on SideHustler today. For each job that publishes an hourly rate in USD we take the middle of its published range, then compute the median and the quartiles. 5 open Engineering jobs do not publish an hourly rate and are left out.
No. These are the rates platforms publish on their postings, not a guarantee of income or hours. What you earn depends on the project, the hours available and the platform's terms.
