Job Description
Machine Learning Engineer (AI Data Trainer) About The Role n
What if your technical expertise could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems reason through complex problems? We're looking for Machine Learning Engineers to help train cutting-edge large language models — not by writing model code, but by doing something equally powerful: teaching AI how to think.
n
This is a fully remote, adaptable contract role. You'll create structured reasoning traces that capture step-by-step planning, tool use, and decision-making — the kind of high-quality training data that makes the difference between an AI that guesses and one that genuinely reasons.
