About the role
We are seeking an experienced Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering expert to lead a team of technical trainers developing realistic, terminal-based engineering tasks for a frontier AI training and evaluation initiative. In this role, you will oversee a pod of approximately 5–10 trainers, review engineering tasks for technical accuracy, reproducibility, and evaluation quality, and ensure that tasks reflect authentic mechanical and aerospace engineering workflows. Main tasks listed: Lead and mentor a pod of technical trainers, ensuring consistent quality, productivity, and timely delivery of engineering tasks; Review engineering tasks end to end, including problem statements, geometry and mesh files, simulation inputs, material properties, reference solutions, and automated tests; Validate tasks involving finite-element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermodynamics, heat transfer, dynamics, robotics, flight simulation, propulsion, and orbital mechanics; Ensure tasks reflect realistic mechanical and aerospace engineering workflows and require meaningful multi-step technical reasoning.
Experience
Ph.D., postdoctoral experience, or equivalent advanced technical experience in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline; Strong programming skills in Python, C/C++, Fortran, Julia, or MATLAB/Octave, with proficiency in Linux environments; Hands-on expertise in at least one major area: FEA, CFD, dynamics, flight simulation, thermal modeling, astrodynamics, guidance, navigation and control (GNC), or propulsion modeling; Strong understanding of engineering simulation, numerical methods, computational modeling, and technical validation; Experience reviewing complex technical work, engineering simulations, computational models, or research outputs; Ability to evaluate engineering assumptions, numerical accuracy, solver convergence, and the reliability of computational results
