Senior Domain Expert — Multi-Discipline AI Research Program

Pay not stated Location not stated Flexible hours Expert / credentialed

About the role

<p>We're building a research cohort of senior domain experts across seven specialist tracks — software/systems engineering, formal methods and computational science, ML inference and GPU kernels, enterprise operations, security, hardware design, and creative technology — to help evaluate how frontier AI models reason about hard, real-world expert-level problems. This is research-and-evaluation work, not production engineering: you'll be defining what "correct" and "excellent" look like on problems you already know deeply.</p>
<p>Candidates must fall into one of the profiles listed below to be considered.</p>
<p><strong>Tracks & Requirements:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><b>Senior Software/Systems Engineer</b><br>Domain: Software Engineering<br>Experience: 8–12 years<br>Education: Bachelor's (Master's preferred)</li>
<li><b>Research Scientist — Formal Methods / Computational Science</b><br>Domain: Science (Math / Physics / Chemistry / Biology)<br>Experience: 10+ years<br>Education: PhD/Doctorate required</li>
<li><b>ML Research Engineer — Inference & GPU Kernels</b><br>Domain: Machine Learning / AI<br>Experience: 6–10 years<br>Education: PhD/Doctorate, or Master's with a strong research record</li>
<li><b>Enterprise Operations / Domain Analyst</b><br>Domain: Operations (Supply Chain / Finance / Compliance)<br>Experience: 8–12 years<br>Education: Bachelor's (professional certifications a plus)</li>
<li><b>Security Engineer — Cryptanalysis / Reverse Engineering</b><br>Domain: Security<br>Experience: 6–10 years<br>Education: Bachelor's (Master's preferred)</li>
<li><b>Mechanical / Hardware Design Engineer</b><br>Domain: Hardware (CAD / RTL / Robotics)<br>Experience: 8–12 years<br>Education: Bachelor's (PE license or Master's a plus)</li>
<li><b>Creative Technologist — Audio / Design / Linguistics</b><br>Domain: Media<br>Experience: 6–10 years<br>Education: Bachelor's (Master's a plus)</li>
</ul>
<p>Candidates who meet the requirements and provide the requested materials will be prioritized for review. As part of this process, we conduct thorough background checks. Please apply only if you meet these requirements — candidates who meet fewer than 70% of the stated qualifications may be flagged for misrepresenting their professional experience, which could affect eligibility for future project staffing.</p>

Responsibilities:

  • Design realistic technical scenarios and problem sets within your track
  • Author expert-level reference solutions and grading rubrics
  • Evaluate AI-generated outputs for correctness, depth, and domain judgment

Required qualifications:

  • Meets the experience and education bar for at least one track in Full Description
  • Currently or recently active in the field — hands-on, not purely academic-adjacent
  • Strong written communication — you'll be authoring technical explanations and structured feedback, not just doing the work itself
  • Comfortable with independent, asynchronous, remote work
