Sobre esta vaga

This opportunity is ideal for experienced Structural Engineers who enjoy solving complex engineering problems and want to apply their expertise to cutting-edge AI technology.
What You'll Do:

• Design realistic AI training tasks based on structural engineering concepts and real-world design challenges.

• Create clear engineering problem statements covering structural analysis, design, simulation, and code compliance.

• Develop reference solutions and deterministic scoring criteria to evaluate AI-generated responses.

• Build engineering tasks using OpenSees and other structural engineering methodologies.

• Create evaluation scenarios involving topics such as:

• Pushover analysis

• Seismic design

• Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

• Reinforced concrete design

• Steel connection detailing

• Structural retrofit

• Review AI-generated engineering solutions for technical accuracy, engineering judgment, and compliance with applicable design codes.

• Provide structured feedback that helps improve AI performance in structural engineering.

• Work independently in a fully remote, flexible environment.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a closely related field (Master's or PhD is a plus).

• Professional experience in structural analysis and structural design.

• Hands-on experience using OpenSees.

• Strong understanding of structural design standards such as ACI 318, AISC 360, or Eurocode (EN 1992, EN 1993, EN 1998).

• Experience with structural engineering concepts including nonlinear modeling, response spectrum analysis, pushover analysis, or performance-based design.

• Ability to write clear, detailed, and technically accurate engineering documentation.

• Strong analytical thinking and attention to detail.

• Excellent written English communication skills.

• Ability to work independently and manage your own schedule.

Nice to Haves:

• Master's degree or PhD in Structural Engineering or a related discipline.

• Experience with advanced seismic engineering or structural retrofit projects.

• Experience with finite element modeling and structural simulation.

• Previous experience reviewing technical work, conducting research, or developing engineering assessments.

• Interest or experience in AI, machine learning, or engineering model evaluation.

• Fully remote, project-based opportunity.

• Flexible schedule — work whenever it fits your availability.

• Compensation ranges from $80–110 USD per hour, depending on experience.

• Expected workload is 10–39 hours per week, though project volume may fluctuate.

• Payments are issued weekly for work completed during the previous week.

• If selected, you will receive an Upwork contract offer along with onboarding instructions for the client's task platform.
