Join a growing network of industry experts supporting AI research and development.

Overview

We're building a select group of experienced civil engineers to help evaluate and improve how AI systems understand and reason about civil engineering topics. You'll bring your real-world expertise to review content for accuracy, answer domain-specific questions, and share feedback that helps make AI tools more reliable and useful in civil engineering contexts.

This is a flexible, part-time engagement — approximately 10 hours per week, fully remote, with the opportunity to continue and grow over time.

What You'll Do

• Review and evaluate written content and AI-generated responses in your area of civil engineering expertise for accuracy and quality.

• Answer questions and provide clear, well-reasoned feedback based on your professional experience.

• Help identify useful reference material relevant to your field.

• Share insight into how civil engineers actually work — the tools, workflows, and standards you rely on day to day.

• Collaborate with a small group of other subject-matter experts across different fields.

What We're Looking For

• Degree-qualified civil engineer holding a Professional Engineer (PE) license in the US.

• 2+ years of professional civil engineering experience, ideally across more than one area (structural, geotechnical, transportation, water resources).

• Familiarity with relevant codes and standards (e.g. ASCE, IBC, AASHTO) and common engineering tools (AutoCAD Civil 3D, STAAD, Revit, or similar).

• Some experience writing technical specs, design reports, or training material is a plus.

• Comfortable using everyday AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT or similar).

• Based in the United States.

• Professional working English.

• Able to commit reliably to about 10 hours per week.
