Physical Sciences & Engineering Professional

Remote — only in countries where the assistant is available

About the role

Help evaluate AI assistants on realistic science and engineering tasks. You give an AI assistant a task like one from your own work, work with it over several turns, and rate the result against a professional standard.

Scope of Work

  • Write short, realistic requests, like a real user would type.
  • Work with the assistant on the task: steer it, answer its questions, and push back when it is wrong.
  • Rate the experience and the deliverable, and write short notes on what went well or badly.

What you’ll bring

  • You are a scientist or engineer (for example chemist, physicist, civil, mechanical, electrical or chemical engineer).
  • A degree and 3+ years of professional experience in a physical science or engineering field.
  • You use AI assistants at least occasionally.
  • You write clearly in English.
