Chief Engineer / Senior Mechanical Engineer

Chief engineers and senior mechanical engineers design realistic multidisciplinary engineering projects for an AI training effort, covering mechanical design, analysis, manufacturing and testing. They turn project goals into requirements, constraints and acceptance criteria, then split the work into linked tasks with clear inputs, deliverables and owners. At least 20 hours a week and B2 English are required. The work is remote, US-based candidates are preferred, and the listing states no pay.
